Handover Ceremony 2024 on 13 July 2024

By Senior Sixer Zac Loh

On July 13th at 8:45 am, I arrived at the Kidzone for our meeting, eager and ready. To my surprise, the P6 Akela candidates hadn't arrived, leaving us without Senior Sixers and Sixers. Despite this, we proceeded with the flag break and then engaged in a team-building game.

Our challenge was to move the entire Six from pillar 10 to 11, delicately balancing a ping pong ball on a spoon. If it fell, we had to start over. Two of us could go first by one holding the spoon and the other holding shoulders. To bring more people, everyone had to hold onto the spoon handle. The first two rounds were normal, but in the third round, only the Sixer wasn't blindfolded. Then, in the fourth round, we had to stand on one leg while holding onto each other's shoulders.

After the game, we proudly awarded badges and certificates to the new Assistant Sixer, Sixer, and Senior Sixer. Just as suddenly as they had been absent, the P6 Akela candidates arrived, surprising us all. I was deeply honored to be named Senior Sixer among them.

The outgoing Senior Sixers passed on their responsibilities with the flag and attendance form, offering us words of encouragement. The new Sixers were entrusted with the logbook and their own flag. A touching moment followed as the new Sixers carried the outgoing Sixers, symbolizing the continuity of leadership.

We concluded with a sunset party and convened for a meaningful Sixers Council, reflecting on our shared pride and commitment to our group.
