Out Bound Training Program

On the 9th and 10th ,we (first year and second year students of Software Engineering) went to Outbounding training to Trincomalee Navy camp with the guidance of 3 lecture including our Sarasi madam.

       DAY 01(09/12/2017)

On 9th morning ,we started travelling at 3.30 am in two buses..both first and second years were in the bus.Our bus stopped in Kandalai river.There we could see the beautiful river in one side of the road and green paddy field in other side.There we took some fresh air ,  we took some photos and then started our journey back.

We reached Trinco at 10.30 am,There we  were provided with accommodations. Then we were given time to get ready. then we got ready and took our lunch there.After that our training activities were started.

First we will separated into four groups and they gave a lot of activities

Activity 01

  go through the square which was made of bamboo

I was in the 3rd group "Charli".Then we were asked to select 8 persons from each group.The activity is to go through the square which was made of bamboo.Actually the square was small and above the ground level.We should go one by one and if any body part touches the square we have to start again.We were very excited and did the activity with much interest.At the end of the activity,the officer told us our plus and minus.We understood that our team need a captaincy and we selected one from the group for the upcoming activities.

Activity 02

 pass a marble through a PVC pipe

The second activity was also very  interesting and needed strategy and coordination.In this activity,we had to pass a marble through a PVC pipe.We had to select 8 to play and one to give instructions. Dilusha was giving us instructions in this activity.We had to join the PVCs ending to prevent it from falling down.We did our best in this activity and finished before five minutes.

  

Activity 03

  Fill the cylindrical  pipe quickly 

This was the most interesting and enjoyable activity we did during the two days.We were given a  cylindrical pipe with hollows around it and non covered in the bottom.We had to fill the pipe quickly by using our hands and our mouth. So to make the bottom covered ,we made Chirantha to lay down and kept the tube above him.Then we ran to the beach and collected water and filled it.We filled the tube in just two minutes.So the navy officer took our photo.

Activity 04

            Block Train

They gave us bricks and each of every one wants to keep the brick in their stomach and  the person who in front wants to keep that brick without falling down by pushing it with his back and also  every one should  keep their hands on the back side of the head. Then the group asked to move to the boundary line which was kept by the officers without letting  down any bricks if any brick fall down then the team should  start from the beginning. 

Activity 05

       Beach Volley ball (without touch the ball) 

 The fifth one was volleyball but here we had to serve the ball by keeping it in the square shaped cloth hold by one in each end instead of using hands.When the ball is served there will be one standing in the opposite side.And that person have to catch the ball.If that person catches one point will be given.Each team were given 15 chances and our team scored 8 points.

Activity 06

           tug of war

 Next activity time for a serious game and now we wanted to take participate in tug of war.So its nothing to say the rules that every one know it and we first tried very very hard and we lost the first round . then every one were tired a lot and we moved into the 2nd round but this time we faced a huge problem that some of our members were injured so we haven't enoughenergy to take part in the game. then we lost this round also.

 Finally we finished all the those activities of the day and we all returned to our boding place and got ready for the dinner party and nearly at 6:00 pm we backed to the same place where we spend the 

day and this time it decorated with lights and then we all it means every group did two programs

 and we did a small drama and a group song and also we had a fire camp also there and everyone enjoy in dj. Then we had our dinner and finally we back to our boding place and after a unforgettable memories in the first day we went to bed.

We all got up early in the morning and at 7:30 am we went to take the After we finished the breakfast we were once again separated into three groups and this time an unimaginable activity we had. That is we had a map and a compass and we asked to reached the elephant point by using the map and the compass and its 2.5 km distance. So first the officers taught us how to use the compass and they came for support us.Then we move towards the final destination with our team. When we walked suddenly we saw a person who severely injured ( to train us ) and then we take steps very slowly to secure him and some of the members didn't take much serious and laugh and we poured him water but unfortunately he was died ( acted as died ). then the officer who acted was got up and points out the mistakes which we did and then we continued our journey and finally we reached the destination and had a good time their and relaxed for a while. breakfast then we was arranged by the officers.
