OUT BOUND TRAINING

On 2017 December 09th and 10th as one of the PPD session all the first and second years of Software Engineering students went to Trincomale Navy camp. Approximately 70 students and 3 lecturers went for this wonderful experience.

It was the most wonderful PPD session for all of our batch mates. Though, some of us experienced this outbound training in the Leadership training program conducted by government for the students those who selected for universities, we enjoyed these two days with our university gang more than that 3 weeks. Because this was not like other lectures there were so many outdoor activities organized by navy officers there. The most wonderful thing for me is most of those activities were at the beach side.

First we went there they have organized a delicious lunch for us. Then one of the navy officer told us rules and regulations in the camp. After that we were grouped into four groups, each group had 19 members including both male and female. Then we enjoyed with leadership activities with our groups. In there we could identify our weaknesses as individuals and as teams and could improve our soft skills like time management, decision making, leadership skills etc. At the same time we enjoyed  a lot more than that from those games.

 

After those activities there was a variety show with a fire camp to show up our skills like singing, dancing and acting.  

We ended the second day after having the dinner at beach. It was the first time I got that experience..😍 In the second day we were grouped into four group but not the same group at the previous day. We had to find the destination going through the jungle using compose and the map. In there we had to make quick decisions because they trained us to do that by acting like victims in the jungle. It is also a funny memory to add our unforgettable journey. 😆 

 Finally we could see the Sri Lanka Navy Museum-Trincomalee. The museum displays several exhibits to illustrate the visitors about the past 30 years war. In there we went our past 30 years in mind. So, I would like to thank Ms.Sarasi Senadeera for organizing such a wonderful trip and our batch mates. Without them it would not be a such an unforgettable memory.
