The value imparted to the Boys today was about love. A simple story was told to illustrate what love is. Simply summarised, love is about giving and being centered on other people's welfare and needs, rather than one's own pleasure. The Boys were encouraged to learn to live out this virtue in their lives by learning to show it to one another, the officers and volunteers, their friends, family members and people who are less privileged in our society.
During squad time, they were asked to reflect on areas of personal growth in character that they would like to sees in their lives during the year and to write these down in duplicate on 2 cards. They kept one card to remind themselves and the other was given to the squad officer to follow up on them in order to encourage them and to help them to change.
A squad based soccer league was introduced for the boys to learn teamwork and commitment.
The results of the day's fixtures were:
Caring (2) vs Integrity (0)
Humility (1) vs Sharing (0)
Reverence (8) vs Trustworthy (6)
