Agenda 1:
In order for the shirts to be cheaper, everyone are requested to buy 2 each. The shirts are in purple and white as brown is not available. The design is changed from the front shoulder to the middle. Each shirt is $8. You may wish to sell the other shirt to your friends.
The jacket will be in black and not purple. There will be an embrioded TJC school crest in the front and the design at the back will be shifted to the middle. It costs $30.
All leaders are to collect a total of $46 from your members around 3 weeks later.

Agenda 2:
The programmes group has proposed to give the Yunnan kids pencilcases. We will get the pencilcases and stationerys from primary schools. It will be sort of a cultural exchange program. We will be going to the schools to educate the students. They will also be exchanging gifts with the Yunnan kids as they will be preparing a collage for them and we will bring back something from the Yunnan kids. We will be doing that straight after promos and we are targeting primary 4 or 6 students as they will be completing their exams earlier.

Agenda 3:
There are 3 activities at the moment..all not comfirmed yet.
1. Song dedication
We will be collaborating this with the SC as they did that for free last year. Still in the mist of discussion.
2. Balloon sculpting
We may be learning how to sculpture balloons and selling them. This is also useful for us as we are planning to give balloons to the Yunnan kids as well.
3. Selling cookies
We will buy the cookies at low cost or if we have the time, bake them ourselves. However, the profits may be low and we still need to package them. Pick Yee and Adele suggested for students to pre-order instead of buying on the day itself so as to show more sincerity to their teachers.

Amanda suggested of selling paper weights. The SciCo has been using some chemicals to make their own paper weights. We may be able to sell them once we get the approval from the SciCo teaher-in-charge. We can even make personalised paper weights. Miss Fong said it would be easier if we provide a standard size of a paper. Students can decorate it the way they want and get it back to us.

Those who has any ideas can contact Jiaxiang directly.

Agenda 4: Jigsaw puzzles
We will be making a 1200-piece puzzle. The leaders of various groups will choose the photo next tues. Those who has any strong ideas can attend the meeting next tues afternoon. The manufacturing will take around 2 weeks and we will have to get it done asap so that it will be ready before the JC2 go for their study break.
