Here are some expanded answers to the quick quiz questions. Don’t forget to take a look at how you’re doing on the leaderboard at the bottom of the page.

QUESTION 1 ANSWER

Once a facilitator is assigned and tasked to write on the welcoming board, where do they need to report to?

• The WhatsApp group
• At least three other facilitators
• Trevor or the teachers
• The Program leader

The WhatsApp group is key to the Welcoming Board management. This is where we confirm that the Welcoming Board has been filled in on time, has the correct information on it and that there are no spelling mistakes. This also allows for other facilitators to stay on standard and check that we ourselves are also on standard. Using the WhatsApp group for this is compulsory.

QUESTION 2 ANSWER

In terms of our Values, which of the following sentences does NOT belong under the heading Care in Character?

• We always write the school name
• Our groups are asked what we need to write on the Welcoming Board and we take care to pay attention and ensure that we write it down as requested
• We check our spelling, accuracy of message as well neatness of chalk writing on the school WhatsApp group with a photo.
• Once it’s completed, we cover the welcoming board in case it rains

We show care in character by ensuring we put the correct agreed on content on our Welcoming Board. By covering the board in case of rain, we ensure it remains like that for when the group arrives. To support this value and the value of Protect the Reputation of Teacher / School & Camp, we send a picture of the completed Welcoming Board on the school WhatsApp group to be audited and checked a day before our groups arrive. A well-prepared Welcoming Board also tells the group where they should go after the bus has stopped (Safety in Preparation) and shows the group that we are prepared and expecting them (Value 4 Money)

QUESTION 3 ANSWER

Which sentence is out of sequence in the process flow order of writing on the Welcoming Board? 

• 1st find out which Welcoming Board to write on
• Assign a facilitator to do the writing and report it on the WhatsApp group
• Once assigned, read the checklist for the group and find out what to write
• Get all the equipment needed to write on the welcoming board.

Assigning a facilitator and posting this on the WhatsApp group is the first step in the process. After that the facilitator will prepare, find out what to write and get all necessary equipment ready. Once that is done, they find out which Welcoming Board to write on, use the checklists and note (under the board), start writing and drawing stick men, as per standard.  Once they are done, they send a picture of the Welcoming Board on the correct group for audits and spell check. Then they cover the Welcoming Board in case of rain.

QUESTION 4 ANSWER

Which of the following equipment is necessary to prepare and use to write on the Welcoming Board?

• Checklist with name of the group coming and a camera
• 5L bucket of lukewarm water, a clean cloth
• Different colour variations of chalk
• 2x black plastic bags & tape 
• All of the above are correct

Checklists and, where relevant, SOP’s are part of the standard equipment needed for almost all work related activities. Welcoming Board writing is no different. We use clean, lukewarm water and a clean cloth to wipe the board before we start, as well as to neaten up the final touches. We must make sure we have at least 2 new / undamaged black plastic bags and masking tape as part of our equipment, before we start the job. We use masking tape and not duct tape when covering the completed Welcoming Board. 

QUESTION 5 ANSWER

Which of the following sentences are NOT part of the SOP for Welcoming Board preparation?

• Anyone can take over from you, just get the board done in time
• Let everyone know, on the group when you go to write on the board
• Take a picture of the checklist or write it down on paper so you don’t miss anything
• Always send a picture of the completed board in the correct group to ask for feedback, quality control and a spell check
• Always check which board you need to write on before writing

Although you can ask for assistance / help, once you have been allocated the role of writing on the board, you need to ensure the task is completed as per standard. If you need to get someone to take over the role from you, this has to be agreed to, by the relevant team members, officially on the WhatsApp group.
