Those who did not pass, I would return the card to you and tell you what to improve on. Those who passed, please get it signed ASAP before you forget.

 

We’ve realized that many of your cards lack some info, and so this is a reminder of the standard information that should be included in your card:

FULL name and Chinese name (if applicable)

NRIC number
Date of Birth
Blood type
Allergies
Address
Home contact
Parent’s contact (name, relationship and number)
Close relative’s contact (name, relationship and number)
Police number
Nearest police post from your home (name of post and number)
Fire brigade number
Non-emergency ambulance number
Traffic police number
Doctor’s contact (name of clinic and doctor’s name and number)
Dentist’s contact (name of dental clinic and dentist’s name and number)

P.S. Make sure that it is REALLY waterproof, not just look like its waterproof because we actually test the card by pouring water on it.

Okay then, thanks!

Quality punk and kindling!

Hi Guides! Here are a few tips to collect punk and kindling of good quality.

 

1. Leaves that you collect must be crisp and dry (test them: if you crunch them in your hands, they should crumble). The good quality leaves are those that crunch and crumble but still keep their shape. You usually collect brown and dried leaves, but remember, NOT all brown leaves are dry and so you have to perform the crunch test on the leaves first. STRICTLY NO GREEN LEAVES.

 

2. Twigs that you collect must be of varying thickness. You must have 4 distinct thickness of wood. The thinnest twigs must have a very great thickness difference from the thickest ones. You must always test the twig to determine whether it is dry (test: snap the twig and if it snaps easily, it is dry. If sap seeps out, then obviously it isn’t dry)

 

When you come for fire practical, you have to bring 2 FULL and compact NTUC plastic bags worth of punk and kindling or else you will not be tested. Also, you are to bring one FULL set of newspapers (containing all sections) for the test.

 

Do not wait till the last minute before you start collecting your punk and kindling. The weather may not always be in your favour so collect punk and kindling while the sun shines!

 

So do remember, do the crunch and snap test when collecting your punk and kindling!

Also, remember to read up before your tests and be familiarized with the steps.

 

Thanks!
