The SLRP is a
programme held in Saint Andrew’s Hall (SA Hall) for members of the Saints
Advocate to learn more about their roles as student leaders. The Seventh Saints
Advocate were fortunate to have an opportunity to bond together as a batch and
experience staying in the SA Hall from 29th March to 11th
February 2016 under the SLRP.
During the
stay, we attended talks and workshops such as Positive Intentions Workshop and
INtercultural Workshop These activities helped us to grow and nurture
ourselves. We learnt important leadership skills and bonded as a Seventh Saints
Advocate.
Here are some
reflections from the Seventh, as well as pictures of our stay:
“SLRP on the
whole has provided me with insights into a lot of things and along the way, I
understood myself better and can better understand why I joined Saints
Advocate.
To know the
actual meaning of servant leadership through the workshop was interesting as I
never knew about it until I came to SAJC. It is indeed a great set of
philosophy as it helps everyone to grow and to become a better person. I will
mould myself into a servant leader too, not because our school require us to do
so, not our cca require us to do so, but because I think it will be a right choice.”

“Although I
have been staying in hostel for quite some time, having SLRP is a different
experience.The programme taught me how to be caring to others. Moreover, I
truly cherish the time that as a Seventh spent together. Due to our workload
and academic commitment, we sometimes tend to neglect the quality time of
gathering together. Thus, by sharing rooms or at least, staying in close
proximity to each other, I was given the chance to know my friends better. In
fact, after the programme had ended, I would miss the time when I had the
chance to do so. The sessions and workshops held throughout the 2 weeks are
very meaningful to me. They allowed much time for reflection that otherwise
would have been very minimal when I had busy schedule.”

“The 2 weeks
stay for the Student Leaders Residential Programme (SLRP) has been an enriching
stay, allowing me to learn many different skills and gain a lot of knowledge
about things happening around me in the society as well as increased my self
awareness”

“I feel that
this SLRP allowed us to bond very well together as a CCA as a 7th. It allowed
us to know each other a lot better because we see each other close to 24 hours
everyday for about 2 weeks. I feel very privileged to be able to have this
programme right after the Leadership Training Camp LTC and at the beginning of the year because then we
would be able to interact with each other even before our projects start,
allowing us to be able to coordinate better in the future.”
