One Last Time

16 May 2015

As usual, some of us reach earlier to have breakfast before the activity begin. Spotting this notice on their notice board simply made us surprised and sad at the same time. It was like the farewell for us and the children. Thank you for coming and support us, children at PAKK!

So we started with the colouring session with the children. The plan to paint mural at a corner of PAKK is cancelled because we don't have enough paint and brushes to do so. Too bad that we could not leave a good memory over there :( The children are very happy when we took out the colouring paper. They form into small groups to share the colour pencils.

After all the colourings and small chats and also many photograph sessions, they proceed to have their lunch since the cathering has arrived. Then, the committee, which is us, split into two groups to have our lunch outside, to keep the children company. While the children is eating, those who had finish their meal came to have a small talk with us, some even want us to show them the photos we took during the colouring session!

After both groups finish their lunch, we proceed to set up the projector, and it is movie time for the children! After a small discussion with the committess during the meeting last night, we decided to play Despicable Me for the session. We've downloaded subtitle for them too for more understanding purposes! Also, there are puddings as refreshment for everyone!

After the movie credits, we proceed to the video prepared by one of our committee, where we flashback all the activities we've done throughout the course with all the photos and videos we took during the activity.

After that, we distribute some questionnaire for the children to fill up, about what is the most liked and disliked activities throughout our programme, and also about what to improve and some comments.

Today is also the Teachers' Day! Some volunteered to speak out in front of all to dedicate their appreciation and gratitude to their teacher, which almost made her shed her tears in front of all of us. Even a simple thank you will made one smile. Spread the love and positivity around you, people!

We did proceed to give some presents to the best artist of the day, and also we gave them sweets and cupcakes, a small thank you for YCK and for the children.

And there are a big surprise for them! Some of us went downstairs to prepare some balloons during the movie time. And when they enter the room with all the colourful balloons, some of them shouted with joy which caught all attention and all of them approaches them to get their balloon.

Lastly, out team leader, Danson Lee gave a short speech to the teacher at YCK and we gave her a hamper as a token of appreciation.

Thank you YCK, thank you Social Engagement, to give us this opportunity to expose to this small corner of the society. We sure will miss them a lot, through all the happiness and sorrows, and how important is communication, teamwork, and our passion.

Signing off :)
