LIFE FREE FROM CODES

Can you imagine to be a soldier for two days... 😱😱😱
Very strict time schedule....😱😱😱

We did it... ohhh yeahhh....😜😜😜



In the last PPD session we went to Navy Institute of Trincomalee Navy Camp for the Out Of Bound Training..

As undergraduates of Software  Engineering, we spent our whole time with codes. Whole the time we sit in front of the computer. We have no other life. It is rear to do outdoor activities. But because of PPD session we got experience of a Out Of Bound Training in a Navy Camp.

Our whole team was 2nd year and 1st year Software Engineering undergraduate students and 2 instructors and Sarasi Madam. 

DAY 1st-

We went to naval base at 10.00 a.m and got one hour time to change. 

After that we wend for lunch. After those things at 1.00 p.m our training was started. As first they divided us into 4 groups and named alpha, Beta, Gama and  Delta. Then we walked 1 KM  distance to the beach as teams with navy officers. 

 The Activities-

   Go through the high tension square-

8 members of a team chose to go through the high tension current line. They were smallest in a team. There were many rules to follow. And there were many mistakes which we have done.

• There wasn't a one leader to guide us. Many leaders were there.

   Passing a ball through pipes-

10 members of a team chose for this game. We stand as a line and we have to pass that ball through pipes to the end line. For That game most wanted thing was a Leader to guide us to right path.
Sometimes the ball was fallen down from us. But finally we did it.

  Go as a line with keep a wood piece between two members-

10 members chose for this game. We kept wood piece between two of us and went to end line. Many time we failed to do that as a team.

• We didn't listen to our leader very well. 
• Didn't work as a team

  Filling a tube with holes with water-

All members participate for this game. we have to fill a tube with water by getting sea. But the difficult was there were many holes in that tube. So we lie down a member and put that tube on the stomach of that member and ran to sea, got water to mouth and hands and ran back and filled that. Our team won that game. Because,

• We had a good leader
• We worked as a team.

 Play Volleyball with little hat-

 Each team got 20 chances to do that. 4 members of a team pass that ball at once and there was a member in other side to catch that ball.

 Tug of War-

All boys of team participate for that game and two teams of girls participate that game.

Time was 5.30 p.m and they said us to go , change and come back for camp fire. It was awesome. There was a variety show. We showed our skills to them. We sang. We danced and did dramas. We had dinner by sitting near the beach.

We went back to accommodation hall.

DAY 2nd-

We got up at 5.30 a.m and went 6.30 a.m to get breakfast.

After that they gathered us together and divide us again in to 4 teams. And we did an activity to get more experience.

Compass March-

Each team got a Compass and a Map. We got a place and direction and we went to that  place through the jungle. In some places we got helps from officers who came  with us. In that journey we met an injured  person(a officer who acted like injured) and we had to help him.

After that we went to see the Naval museum. We learnt lot of thing after watching it..

After that we had lunch with them and came back. It was their 67th anniversary. We are happy to join with them to celebrate it.

In that out of bound training period we learnt,

• When we work as a team we want a leader to guide us in the right path.
• Team spirit is very important.

However we got unforgettable memories from that training....😊😊😊
