2 1 0 2 t h g i Movie N By 4.30pm, the air filled with anticipation as staff collected goodie bags, lucky draw and movie tickets, and were (to their surprise) split into various team colours. VivoCity GV foyer was also abuzz with “HEY~s” and “YO~s” as Trainees rediscovered each other. Aside from thanking staff for their dedication and hard work during the past year with a movie treat and dinner, AcePLP Movie Night 2012 was also a bonding session for the staff majority – the Trainees. The night kick-started with an exciting series of Treasure Hunt games to connect all! Chaotic fun ensued, as the 11 teams raced against one another to win the Top 3 prizes. Although some had only met for the first time, everyone played with enthusiasm and displayed spritely teamwork. “I’m surprised at how ‘on’ they were!” said a Team Facilitator. Kudos to the 170+ staff who came! The following pages are dedicated to all the teams… Spot yourself :)

TAKE HOME A CHRISTMAS MEAL!
Never had an authentic Christmas meal before? Try creating it at home this year. Café Mosaic of Carlton Hotel has a wide range of Christmas goodies for you to choose from! The most popular goodie would be its Christmas Party Pack for 6. Christmas Menu - Whole Turkey with Chestnut stuffing - Mashed potato - Butter seasonal vegetables with chestnut - Butternut squash Veloute
DBS and UOB cardholders will enjoy 20% off, so assuming that your dinner party is for 6 people, the cost stands at only $25/person! Quite an affordable price, don’t you think? Throw in one of Carlton’s famous logcakes Red Cherry Logcake and voila~ your cosy family Christmas dinner is complete!
MUSIC FOR THE SOUL If you are tired of the commercial aspects of Christmas, indulge in some music to remind yourself about the peace, joy and love this season stands for.
SING YOUR HEARTS OUT Carol along with the choir gathered by Celebrate Christmas in Singapore (CCIS), at their annual mass caroling event this 23rd and 24th Dec. The event will be from 7-9pm on both days at ION Orchard. Gather your friends and sign up on their website to join as an official volunteer, or just pop by to feel the Christmas cheer as the choir belt out season tunes. Christmas just aint complete without music! Falalalala~
Have a Heart, Share a Gift.
Bring cheer to the less fortunate in this holiday season by participating in the Boys’ Brigade Share-aGift Project. Simply follow thse steps: 1.

Return the gift with the wish tag attached, to the Wish Tree by 17 Dec.
HotChocSpoons Here’s a neat idea for little DIY gifts for friends & family – Hot Chocolate Spoons! Not only are they pretty, they are easy to make too. Enjoy one yourself while curling up on your sofa. Just melt, stick, set, swirl in hot milk, and you’re in for a nice, cosy night. Visit http://www.giverslog.com/?p=3290 for a well‐tested recipe.
