Life Game 2019 - Together

Date: 20th October 2019

Venue: Siloso beach, Sentosa

The aim of this event is to allow the participants to learn core values that can be applied in daily lives, release stress by taking a breather from studying, and to make new friends and connections.
The target audience for our event is all SIM students.

At 8AM, the participants and a handful of committee members gathered at SIM to facilitate the registration of participants.

Welcome to the opening ceremony everyone!!!

Brandon and Gillian were the emcees for the day, and they conducted the opening of the event.

Everyone was feeling excited and hyped for what was about to happen!

After explaining all the rules and game flow, we jumped right into the ice breaking session which enabled the participants to tighten their team bond.

WAIT!! Before that, let’s do some warming up first!

Okay!! We’re ready to roll!

We are a big happy family!

At around 10:30AM, it was time to flag off. Participants then travelled to their respective game station that served the purpose of imparting them with certain objectives and lessons.
 

Hidden Box, a game where we allow participants to understand the importance of listening and discerning information in a noisy situation.

 Hands and Legs, a game where coordination and awareness between the group members is vital!    

Roly-Poly, a game where team members have to move the ping-pong ball from the starting point to the ending point without any verbal communication.

Session 1 ended at 12:35PM. All the participants and committees were required to head back to the home base to have their sumptuous lunch.
 

Everyone was so focused on their food because of their hungry, rumbling tummies!

Let’s continue with our second session of station games! 

Tower-It! The objective of this game was to instill the spirit of teamwork in each member and for the members to see their coordination between each other.

After the game sessions, all the participants were ushered to gather at Emerald Pavilion by 4PM for a special session. This session needed all the participants to build and complete the separated logo pieces using the colourful ice cream sticks that they had collected throughout the day.

This was the final result! YAYYYY~

The activity that ensued after the special session was the mass game. The mass game required each team to make a full attire out of newspapers and it was to be worn by a single member of their team. The rest of the members played the roles of being defenders by protecting their member from the water or attackers that tried to destroy the  newspaper outfit.

Let us present to you the creativity of our participants!

All the teams were united in protecting their newspaper models together.

Finally, it was time for the award-giving ceremony!

2nd runner up, Team Green!

1st runner up, Team Brown!

 Champion, Team Grey!

 

A big thank you to all the participants and all the committees that were involved in Life Game 2019. At the same time, thank you to the EXCOs and sub-comms who put in a lot of effort and did their best to conduct this big, fun-filled event. Here’s to seeing you all in the future but till then, farewell and best wishes.
