Walk on water .… Students took a one-hour walk to a nearby island during low tide.

The Student Welfare Committee of TAR College Sabah Branch Campus organized its first student camp on 13 and 14 January 2007 at Borneo Paradise Resort, Papar. Fifty-one students and five staff took part in the two-day camp at the resort which is about 30 minutes away from Kota Kinabalu city.

The aims of the camp were to help participants build leadership skills, learn the ways to establish effective communication, develop good attitude, and be on a journey of self-discovery through a series of talks namely “Discover Who You Are” and “Relationship With Others” plus other thought-engaging activities. Apart from that, the students had some fun walking for about an hour to an island during low tide.

Prizes were awarded to winners of group games and talent show competition. The camp received encouraging feedback from participants as most of them responded positively. Overall, the camp taught the students about leadership, nature awareness and team spirit through fun experiences.
