Male and female members of the Fire and Rescue cadets from Kolej Universiti Perguruan Ugama Seri
Begawan (KUPUSB) took part in a march past yesterday during an official co-curriculum ceremony held at
KUPUSB.
Each member received a certificate of appreciation presented by Ustazah Hajah Zaliha Hj Ibrahim, Acting
Assistant Rector of KUPUSB, who during the ceremony, pointed out the importance of KUPUSB
members' involvement in co-curriculum activities.
"It is through such activities that experiential learning can be achieved which in turn motivates us to be
more caring and inspires a sense of empathy.
"When these people (cadets) are involved in cadet training, they will be able to get a second hand
experience of the hardship some families have to go through.
"In addition, they will undergo physical and mental challenges. All these cannot be acquired in a lecture
theatre," she asserted.
For two days starting yesterday, KUPUSB is organising an exhibition during which various publications
such as those by KUPUSB, the mosque department, the syariah department and the State Mufti's Office,
will be available for viewing.
