Sorry for the lack of updates

It's not that 1st KL BB hasn't been active. On the contrary, it's been so active that more time has been used up on DOING BB stuff instead of just INFORMING about BB stuff.

Blessings,
Officer Wong

And Now Back To Your Regularly Scheduled Programme!

Hello all.

Sorry for the immense lack in posting. All of us were extremely busy with preparations for Pesta. A lot of other personal stuff required my attention as well. However, it looks like things are settling down a bit (though I think things will really improve - schedule-wise - by mid-July).

Meanwhile, I'll try to keep things here as updated as possible. Please forgive me if I don't.

See you all around!

This Saturday Is Awards Day & Parents' Dialogue! (1 April 2006)

Awards Day is one of the most anticipated days of the BB Company calendar. It is the day where Members get to finally see the results of all their hard work from the previous year - in the form of various achievement and academic awards. Of course, it will also be a nail-biting time as the Senior Members eagerly anticipate the promotions in rank of several Members!

This year, it is definitely going to be very interesting!

Held on the same day, the Parents' Dialogue session is an opportunity for Officers and Parents to discuss the progress of Members. Officers usually look forward to this time so that they can get to know their Members and their families better.
