We had the pleasure of hosting some students from Evergreen Secondary School. They arrived early in the morning to attend talks about some of our diplomas before going on a tour of our labs, the Anatomy Museum as well as our very posh Raffles Hospitality Centre (RHC).

Have you taken a look in the Anatomy Museum? If you haven’t, you really should. There was one exhibit showing a normal lung vs a smokers’ lung. Some of the girls were horrified to find out the lungs were real.. Not human, of course. It belonged to a pig.. But it was enough for some of them who swore they’d never smoke now that they’ve seen such a gruesome thing.

I’ve never been to RHC myself so I tagged along to find out more. And guess what, it really looks like a hotel. There’s a spa lab, a kitchen, a dining area, guest room and front counter. A pity I couldn’t try the hydrobath (Read: Mini-Jacuzzi)! It looks like everyone had a good time, including our staff members. We were sad to see the fun-loving students of Evergreen Secondary School board the bus at the end of their visit, but hey – they promised to come for Open House in Jan 2010 *grin*

Visit us on every thursday from 12.15 pm to 1.15 pm

Voting lines open at the start of the show at 8pm, and close at 10pm.

Biathlon is a fun and endurance sport that combines running and swimming. For beginners, you might want to try out the “Fun” category which consist of 250m swim and 1.6km run. For challenging freaks, you can pit your endurance against the “Competitive” category of 450m swim and 2.4km run. If you can’t swim or run, you can find a friend and join the “Competitive” team relay category of 550m swim and 2.4km run.

All participants will receive a free goodie bag from our sponsors. On top of that, all “Competitive” category will receive a finisher medal. Medals and prizes will also be given to the top 3 winners of the categories.

RP Biathlon 2009 will be held in RP Sports Complex on 21st November 2009.
