This is the very first time I join BNTS as a camp helper. I want to thank Captain Ang and Captain Jonathan and of course God for giving me the opportunity. Being a helper also make you learn how to team up with helpers from other companies while preparing for the camp. Seeing the BNTS participants took me down memory lane. I was once in their shoes, persevering throughout the camp, trying hard to stay awake, surviving hundreds of star jumps. Both either basic or advance NTS teaches us courses that we can apply in our own company. NTS is a very good camp to train up leaders in Boys' Brigade. Great leaders are made, not born. Once again I am very thankful to be able to participate in BNTS as a helper. I wish to participate next year to learn even more things. We can never stop learning.
Corporal Derrick Chin said;
This is my third time join BNTS as a camp helper, every year sure got new things to let me learn. This year got a lot of new face camp helpers from each company. In BNTS history, just Corporal or above and after SPM member can join as camp helpers, this year is special that BNTS allow Lance Corporal to join. This year, I meet a lot of NCOs that from different company, when work with them, I can learn a lot of things. Communication and working with them is updated me to higher level and learn their experience.
Corporal Jacky Tan said;
Firstly, I want to thank God that gave me a chance to be a helper in BNTS. And God also gave us a nice whether during that 3 days. This time I learnt a lot of things as a helper. I also knew many friends through BNTS. Most of them are friendly and we all had a good teamwork at there. When I need any helps, they sure will give me a help. Look at those campers were so tired and suffer, sometimes I really wants to help them. But I couldn’t, because this was a training camp. Anyway, I really enjoyed myself very much in the camp and I’m looking forward for the next year :D

ANTS; the strict-est camp that I had ever been. For me myself with bad stamina, BNTS was tired enough to finish those starjumps and punishments but after ANTS, only I realised that BNTS was actually so easy. First day the registration not even started then we have to run 2 rounds of parade ground because that we didn’t discipline ourselves properly. That was okay until the passing-waterbottle time, we passed bottle got like 15 times + maybe? Even the BNTS-ers finished their opening ceremony and also their classes and yet we were still passing. And through that, I had learnt that we should have always set our target before doing something and of course with cooperation with your team members. The memorable part was the second day, the so-called-extra-activities-day, we got like 3000+ starjumps and also 3000+ rounds to run at the parade ground, and guess what. We, all the ANT-ers negotiated with Sir Loh from 3000+ starjumps to 400 starjumps and no more of running parade ground . That was the best part. Of course, include the classes, learnt a lot of things that as a leader and daily life we should apply it and also not forgetting those awesome friends and classmates that I’ve met! Last day not much of things happened, of course very happy but sad because it was about to end. Lastly Thank to our Father Lord, that guided the whole camp smoothly , gave us strength to finished it and too everyone safe! Praise the Lord! Well, the phrase that remind me of this camp is , belum cuba, belum tau. It started with one of us and Sir Loh keep on using that to us. Seriously belum cuba belum tau , so mesti cuba only tau =) To me, really really never give up until the end, then it will be sucessed.
* Never give up! Shine for 17th penang company!

在三月的假期里,我和少年军第17分队的朋友去了一个小队长高级组训练营。
在这三天两夜的训练营中,我学习了许多东西。我虽然很累,但这是值得的。
从中我学习到当我们要做任何事情时,都必须先三思而后行。我们必须要有计
划,然后才可以进行所有的活动。另外,我也学习如何去沟通,要自动去认识别
人,认识更多的朋友。我们都必须互相帮助,无论遇到什么难题,大家都一起面
对,一起解决,因为单靠一个人的力量,是不能办到的。
让我最难忘的时刻就是当所有人都一起面对难题时,大家一起思考及互相提出
意见的时刻。这种场面是很难在学校或外面体会到的。这个营会主要是要让我们
学习成长,让我们更加的独立,及在外面工作时需要的勇气。在这营会中也让我
知道社会上会发生的问题,让我深深地体会了出外工作所会面对的困难。
我很珍惜这次的小队长高级组训练营,这让我受益不浅。在这里我要鼓励更多
还没去这生活营的朋友们,要好好把握这机会,若是错过了,就很难有机会了。

在ANTS,我学到了'SMART A',这可帮助我设定目标.SMART A
就是PECIFIC,EASURABLE,CHIEVEBLE,ELEVANT,IMETABLED,GREED.
我还学到认识有很多种品格例如值得信任,责任感,公平等.还学到冲突是由三种元素组成的,有人为,程序,问题.还还有冲突的程度等等.还有个人塑造是由信念,价值观,等的.还有教我解决问题要有六个步骤:察觉有问题,收集有关资料,认清问题,推演一些解决方法,挑出最佳解决方法,实行解决方案.这这些东西都对我有很大的帮助,我也很高兴能够参加这次的训练营.

Boys' Brigade History
The first Boys' Brigade company was set up by Sir William Alexander Smith on 4 October, 1883, at Free Church Mission Hall, North Woodside Road, Glasgow, Scotland, to develop "Christian manliness" by the use of a semi-military discipline and order, gymnastics, summer camps, and religious services and classes.
In the years following the establishment of the 1st Glasgow company, others were rapidly formed throughout Scotland and the rest of the United Kingdom leading to a movement comprising thousands of boys.
The Boys Brigade movement in Wales was founded by George Phillip Reynolds in 1887 at Havelock Sreet Presbyterian Church, Newport, Monmouthshire.
By the early 20th century there were about 2,200 companies connected with different churches throughout the United Kingdom, the British Empire, and the United States, with 10,000 officers and 160,000 boys.
Each company is normally affiliated to a battalion encompassing several nearby companies, which in turn are organized at a district and then national level, although in Scotland each company is attached to a local district, which is attached to a battalion.
Companies are named in the form "2nd Springfield", indicating the second company to have been established in or around Springfield; it should be noted that where companies have closed, numbers are not normally reallocated, so it is quite normal to find a "2nd" but no "1st" company.
Initally, a simple rosette was worn as an identifying uniform, shortly being replaced by the simple use of a belt, haversack, and pillbox cap (a popular military cap of the day) worn over the boys' everyday clothing.
The pillbox cap was used into the 1960s, long after it had fallen out of use in the British Army, when it was replaced with a field cap.
The movement also pioneered camping for leisure in Britain, previously rarely used outside the military. Early admirers of the Brigade included Robert Baden-Powell who as Vice President of the Boys' Brigade used it alongside initiatives in schools, particularly Eton, to promote the idea of scouting and outdoor pursuits based on those of the military for boys.
At the time, he did not originally intend that any individual organization would later arise from this aim in the form of the various Boy Scouts movements.
Early examples of Scouting were seen in Boys' Brigade Scouting awards and even specialised Boys' Brigade Scout sections who wore a blue uniform with shorts and the distinctive Smokey Bear hat traditionally identified with Scouts, and still worn today by drill sergeants in the United States Army.
However, nowadays there is a certain friendly rivalry between the two groups.
The Boys' Life Brigade was one of many similar movements formed by the Boys' Brigade's influence, sometimes along denominational or religious lines, including the Church Lads' Brigade, the Jewish Lads' Brigade, or the Catholic Boys' Brigade.
The merger also prompted the abandonment of dummy drill rifles that had been used in The Boys' Brigade, due to the Life Brigade's objection to use of weapons or their representations. For some time afterwards, the section covering members aged 8–12 years was known as Life Boys, before being restyled as the Junior section.
A popular hymn in the BB containing its motto and obvious reference to its emblem is "Will Your Anchor Hold" by Priscilla Owens, usually sung at displays and church services. Note, however, that this is not the official Boys' Brigade song. The official song for the Boy's Brigade is 'Underneath the banner'.
