BruSheff Society

In commemoration of the 30th Independence Day for Brunei Darussalam, BruSheff had organized a National Day hike on the 23rd of February for the people within the society. The hike was set at Peak District, specifically the Mam Tor peak. Around 52 students from both universities have attended the hike where they spent about 4 hours trailing up and down the peak. At the peak, BruSheff hoisted the Bruneian flag and sang the National Anthem.

The highlights for the recent event BruSheff has successfully organised, Brunei Yorkshire Games 2013 (BYG2013).

On the 9th of November a few Brusheff members have joined a charity event held by the University of Sheffield Islamic Circle (USIC) called the Sheffield vs Snowdon trek. Each participants have to raise 200 pounds nad hike through Mt. Snoedon, the highest mountain in Wales. Money donated will proceed to charities for the needy in Syria.  The participants from Brusheff are namely Yusof Fadli bin Haji Sidek, Siti Alai Shazrinah binti Haji Shazali, Siti Rafizah binti Norudin Sarah Haji Abdul Mutallif. Alhamdulillah they have successfully climbed Mt Snowdon and raised over 800 pounds. Hopefully this would inspire more people to join in activities for a great cause and hopefully the proceeds will help aid Syria in their struggle.

On the morning of the 2nd of November, Brusheff has held their 2nd Amazing Race as part of their freshers event. The event started from Weston Park and checkpoints were spread out throughout the Sheffield University campus and city centre. The checkpoints include the students union, peace gardens, Sheffield Hallam University and the train station. Teams were mixed up so that people from different years and disciplines were able to get to know each other throughout the race. The race ended at Weston Park as the final destination and the award ceremony was held there too. Hopefully this event would develop closer bonds to the Bruneians living in Sheffield whether they were participants or volunteers.
