National Day is a joyous occasion celebrated on 9th August yearly by all Singaporeans to mark Singapore’s nationhood. Schools also celebrate the special occasion by putting up various performances relating to Singapore’s success as a thriving independent country over the years. Every year, in Secondary Schools, the uniform groups would first start with the National Day Parade.
The National Day Parade contains 4 contingents of the different uniform groups, NPCC, NCC, RCY and Girl Guides. The uniform groups, NCC and NPCC, will take alternate years to be the Guard of Honour Contingent. This year, NPCC was the Guard of Honour Contingent. The whole parade was led by Sergeant Zunairah Seron, the parade commander, from NPCC.
Cedar NPCC unit have been doing extremely well and has sustained the Gold award for the Unit Overall Proficiency for the past eight years. Every cadet trained very hard for two weeks to ensure a perfect National Day Parade. The trainings were held twice weekly where all the contingents would have to pay careful attention to the commands given and continue with their drills as sharp and precise as possible in sync with the concert band’s rhythm. It was not very easy as all the drills had to be done by the time the concert band stops playing. We had to move even faster and at the same time coordinate our movements.
With a short period of time to train, cadets involved in the parade had to attend extra training sessions so as to ensure a high standard performance on the actual day. Everyone put in a great amount of effort and persevered and endured through the tiring and tough practices. Everyone cooperated with each other and did their drills with much involvement and perfection. When sometimes a few drills did not turn as well as we expected, we practiced more on them.
On the real day, we did our drills with great amount of effort and pride. Although we had minor mistakes we managed to carry on with the parade as perfect and precise as possible. Our hardwork did pay off. We had a sense of accomplishment after the parade was over.
From this experience, we have learnt that cooperation, perseverance, endurance and being alert is important in order for a contingent and a squad to do well. With such values, definitely a squad would be able to do well in everything they do in their NPCC life.
