21/4/2011 Club Activity // NO ACTIVITY NEXT WEEK.

Did everyone enjoy today's activity?

Origami was the main plan for today's activity. Have you heard of the story that if you made 1000 cranes, and made a wish, your wish might come true? That was the whole point of today's activity. To achieve the 1000 cranes goal and make a wish. To wish for the safety for Japan.

Anyways, we really did hope everyone enjoyed the activity that was held today and we hopethat you'll come for the next club activity. Please be noted that Japan Cultural Club follows the school takwim.

Meaning, that WON'T be any activity next week, on the 21st of April.

Thank you for everyone's kind cooperation and keep those spirits high!

Open to Ideas

We all know that every single one of the members of the JCC are very brilliant and filled with ideas! So why not share them with us? Carnival Day will be on the 17th of July and the headmistress would give us the whole hall, Dewan Seri Kenangan, if we can come up with amazing events to host there.

"17th July, still so long lah!" 

Early planning is never wrong. Plus! Our President had decided to get funding from certain places so we have to come up and make decisions on what we shall do during Carnival Day very soon. The better the idea, the more determined we are, then the more funds we might get. Also, don't you think it would be fun if your idea was chosen? Then you can bring your friends along too and just have an amazing time on Carnival Day.

Let's Help Japan!

As all of you should know, Japan was hit by an earthquake which led to a tsunami and now the radiations in Japan are causing quite some damage. 

Being the Japan Cultural Club, we obviously thought of helping the beloved country out. That's why you've been seeing board members running around the school, going to classes, asking for donations. Our donation drive will be going on, all the way until this Saturday. So, those who would like to help Japan out, please bring some extra pocket money! To both morning and afternoon sessions! 

We've been collecting for the past 2 weeks so far and the numbers are slowly rising. Our goal is to hit around RM10,000 in total, hopefully by the end of this week and we really do hope we can reach our goal! 

"A thousand faces, a thousand personalities, yet united by one interest." 

We are united and if we work hard enough, together, I'm sure we can achieve our goal! So let's work hard and do our very best to help Japan!

Thank you everyone for the amazing entries for the uniform and logo designing competition for the Japan Cultural Club. We had a hard time choosing between each and everyone's entries. The board members in charged definitely took every single entry into consideration. But alas, not everyone could be the winner.

Conservation of the Enviroment

As many of you know, Japan was hit by a 9.0 magnitude earthquake then followed by a tsunami. We thought that the tragedy of Japan would end afterwards but I guess mother nature begged to differ. Because of the natural disasters that occurred, the nuclear power plants in Fukushima, Japan was damaged seriously. It has been told that the radiation leaks from the nuclear power plants are dangerous.

We, as the Japan Cultural Club, would be participating in the exhibition called "Program Bestari" organized by our school to teach people and give people a better understanding of the crisis that is going on in Japan. Mainly, the radiation leaks.

Date : 9th April 2011
Venue : SMK Seafield Library
Theme : Conservation of the Environment

From the exhibition, members of the Japan Cultural Club would be educating students of SMK Seafield about :
- factors causing the radiation leaks
- effects of radiation
- steps taken by the authorities to overcome it
- the current radiation levels.
- timeline of the radiation levels

We hope to educate the students and also spread the love of Japan throughout the student body.
