Ready and Roaring

Only 17 days to the camp and we're so excited! We hope your children are as well!

When interacting with some parents, we realized that some of the participants have never been for any camps before! This is fair as most children only experience camps when they're Primary 5 and forced to go for their first school camp!

If you're one of these parents, rest assure your children will gain so much confidence they'll be wanting to go for more. For the rest of the parents, your children are in safe, experienced hands!

Anyway, here's a To Bring List just in case you don't already know!

Welcome to Bahadur Bachey Online!

The biggest highlight of our camp has to be the 40 iMacs that has been sponsored for our camp! We're incredibly lucky that we're able to inculcate graphic design into our programme.

This is the first time in the history of any Singaporean samelens, where we'll be teaching children the basics of how to use an iMac in relation to the themes of our camp!

We had to test out the iMacs and train ourselves before we could train the kids, so we went to our sponsor Paviter Singh's house where he gave us a crash course on everything there is to know about iMacs.


We had so much fun and spent hours just playing around with the functions and editing and perfecting our comics!

As such, we imagine that the children themselves will be excited and very interested in this new style of learning that we are incorporating.

Children these days are so much more high-tech, we're sure this will be a hit! =)


Continue checking this blog during the camp to see comics desgined by your own children online!

See you soon!

Success!

We're happy to note that we've surpassed all our previous expectations! We've hit a 140 participants mark!

It's much more than we had expected, 20 participants more! But perhaps it's meant to be? Anyhow, we'll never know till the camp!

Unfortunately, closing has officially closed now. But if anyone else is interested, we can put them on a waiting list in case any participants drop out!

Anyhow, email us at bahadurbachey@gmail.com for all your queries!

There's officially a month to the camp, and we're ready and roaring to go! We've got everything in place and just too many people to thank!

The parents and sangat have been so wonderful in their donations be it monetary or blessings. We're just keeping our fingers crossed and hoping that all goes well during the camp.

Please keep checking this website for further Bahadur Bachey updates.

Hope to see you soon! =)
