As usual, we e-mailed the person-in-charged, Mr. Siva, few days before to get his approval for us to have our volunteer job at Pusat Aktiviti Kanak Kanak(PAKK). One problem that we encountered that day when we arrived, is that the teacher on duty is not informed that we are coming. Fortunately they allowed us to enter, but before that, we had a small session, with just us, the team, to revise the games and activities we will be having with the kids.
The children are very excited to see us! We separated them into groups of 6 or 7, then each and everyone of us is assigned to a group, a quick ice breaking session is held, then we discussed about the "mini performance" we are going to have after the small discussion. Many of the children volunteered themselves to perform, some wants to sing, some wants to dance, and also a short drama too!
Meanwhile, there are some of us helped them to carry things needed for the event tomorrow, such as the gifts prepared to the winners, and many more.
The hampers prepared! A million thanks to the committee for wrapping them so beautifully!
Also, they also requested 2 of the guys to follow their van to Kelab Sultan Sulaiman, the venue where the carnival is held, so move all the stuffs to a temporary storeroom. We are glad that we can help :)
In the children' activity centre, the children are ready for their mini performance before their big event, the carnival, on the next day. We hope to build up the children' confidence so that they do not get too nervous when they get on the stage tomorrow.
While some of the children went upstairs to rehearse their performance during carnival, we played the games we created and proposed last night, including the game Boom Boom Chiaki Chiaki, which is the passing of "bullets" and also the game Karipap, where they will clap their hands and thighs according to the beat.
Towards the end of the day, the small groups are combined into one big group to play the game, the game became more excited and fun with such a big group! As a surprise to them, there are a small gifts for each and everyone them. Although there are many of them, they did not forget to queue up to receive their gifts and express their gratitude by giving blessings to us.
Good luck and all the best for the mini carnival tomorrow!
