URSA = FIRST

Yo, champions!

That's right, you've seen the tag, URSA is currently the FIRST IN RANKING, thanks to UR avid participation!
The news have even spread to Malaysia (see tagboard)! =D



INTERHOUSE BRIGDE
Date: 7 Oct 08
Time: 1615h
Venue: Concourse

In addition to having the most number of participants in INTERHOUSE BRIDGE COMPETITION, 3 out of 4 finalists are from URSA!

Despite facing a tough fight from the shameless lynx cats, the URSA finalists eventually managed to come in FIRST, FIRST (it's a tie) and THIRD runners-up.

They are:
- 1st Runner Up: Thomas (08S42)
- 1st Runner Up: Patrick (08S64)
- 3rd Runner Up: Tingyong (08S37)

A round of applause for them!

Anyways, with these results, URSA emerged as the overall BRIDGE champions, and hence is placed at the FIRST position in the overall house ranking (as of 07 Oct)!



GLOBAL AFFAIRS QUIZ
Date: 8 Oct 08
Time: 1500h
Venue: Performance Theatre

Whee~~~
Although there's a lower rate of participation for this activity (we assume that it's due to the intensity of the previous day's competition), we've got pretty good results! =)

One of our teams came in SECOND runner-up, having an average score of less than 0.5 lower than the FIRST runner-up. Hence, they weren't able to go into the FINALS and compete for the $120 book voucher. =(

The team members are:
- Kang-An (08S56)
- Syamil (08S56)
- Chrystal (08S56)

A round of applause for them!




Even though we didn't win the quiz today, URSA, on the overall, should be still on top of all the other houses! Wow, amazing!

Another round of applause!
Well done, URSA!




At this point of time, the URSA House Comm would like to sincerely thank each and every one of the participants for participating in the abovementioned two house activities.

Remember,

RSA is incomplete without U!

Continue to take part in more house activities!


For those who haven't done so, here's your chance:

Hey kids!

Happy CHILDREN'S DAY!

It's been a long while since we're entitled to a 'children's day' public holiday, ya?
So, do cherish today and do something that you've always wanted to do, but can't do cos you're already a 'grown up'. That includes:

• Watching Kid's Central.
  Although there's no more powerpuff girls or bananas-in-pyjamas, you can still expect to see all-time favourites, like Pokemon and Power Rangers! <3>
• Receiving gifts for Children's Day
  Go on, ask your parents/teachers for presents.
  Afterall, today's YOUR day!
  
• Play the games you used to play in primary school - hopscotch, tic-tac-toe, ice and water, zero-point; or even those that you've enjoyed playing when the teachers are not around, e.g. BRIDGE.

Whoops! Did I mentioned BRIDGE?
That brings me to the next point, INTERHOUSE BRIDGE, next tuesday!

Even if you're inexperienced, it's okay!
Bridge is a game that requires both skill and luck.
Even without the skill, you'll still have the luck (ever heard of beginner's luck?)!

So, quick quick, got sign up at the URSA house board on friday when you come back for Farewell Assembly!
P.S. Farewell Assembly's going to be fun! =)

HCA (Happy Children's Day),
Ci Yi.
