The third day of
Orientation Programme was about Tug-Of-War, the school’s performance by the
freshmen, and lastly Jam & Hop.
School of Engineering,
being one of the biggest schools in Republic Polytechnic, took the advantage of
its huge mass of freshmen; chanted together all the way to Astroturf. Freshmen,
together with the student leaders and Cyrivians, left the home base at Agora 3
& 4, with the chant, ‘LAST YEAR’S CHAMPS ARE HERE!’
Upon reaching the
Astroturf, there was a panoramic view
of students from all schools and centres, seated at their respective areas. SEG
were already cheering for their very own Tug-Of-War warriors. Hearing how strong
the cheers and chants were; it was blatant to see that the sense of pride and
honour for the school had been instilled in every freshmen.
SEG started off the competition strong, and won the first few rounds. The warriors managed to pull through the stages and get to the finals. The SEG staff team had gone to the finals. The SEG student team had a close fight with the SOH side, but with determination, they managed to triumph against the opponent. There was it, this year’s champs, SEG!

Even though we’ve won against schools and centres, they had one
more challenge against the SEG staff team however they lost to the SEG staff team.

Though the Principal’s Cup was not over yet, freshmen were
extremely hyped that there was a chance of winning this year. When students
returned to the home bases, the chant then changed to, ‘THIS YEAR’S CHAMPS ARE
HERE!’
After an exhilarating day in the Astroturf, freshmen were led back
to home base for lunch. Everyone hydrated themselves and rested for a while
before starting on the mass team Republic echo. The Republic War Cry, also
known as team Republic echo, brought unity amongst them and it definitely
illustrated the school’s motto, ‘ONE REPUBLIC’. They must have done it too many
times that the war cry was mastered; both lyrically and its actions. In
addition, during this time, there was a mass bonding session together from the
Red Indian game, virus and 2 plus 1.
After dinner, they had a sneak peak from SEG’s freshmen dancers!
Freshmen were led to lawn for the school and centre performances
before concluding the winner for this year’s Principal’s Cup. We were presented
performances by the schools and centres. When it was SEG’s performance,
everyone was surprised about the flash mob.
Not only SEG cheered for their own school, they rooted for other
schools too. This was an example of tremendous sportsmanship which had
illustrated great friendships and respect with one another.
After an inspiring speech by the principal, the deliberation was
finally delivered.
SEG has once again clinched champion for this year’s Principal’s
Cup! There was definitely a wave of extreme happiness. Now that SEG has won the
Principal’s Cup for 2 years in a row, this batch of freshmen are inspired to
win for the third time, once more.
