A Report on the 'Paws and Claws' Project

On 13th of August 2011, the Leo Club of SMK Assunta organised a project called "PAWS AND CLAWS" where the Leo’s volunteered to help at SPCA. It was from 9.00am to 11.00am.There were about 11 Leo’s that attended this project. SPCA was located at Ampang Jaya so the journey took quite long.

As soon as we reached SPCA, we placed all the things that our club donated in the office. We donated essentials worth RM250 for the shelter such as dog food, cat food, dog shampoo, flee shampoo, and lots more. The Leos donated essentials too such cages, newspaper, towels, and dog and cat food.

There were more than 300 dogs and 20 cats at the shelter. Most of the dogs and cats were very friendly us but the rest of them were shy and scared so they remained in their cages. When we reached the shelter, the person in charge separated us into groups and told us what we had to do. We were told to clean the dogs and cats cages by removing all the soiled newspapers and replacing them with fresh, clean newspapers. All the water bowls had to be taken out too, to be scrubbed clean and refilled with fresh, clean water. We also had to wash the floors of certain compartments.

After all the cleaning was done, the Leo’s went to the kitchen to help prepare the food for the cats and dogs. The fish had to be deboned and the flesh of the fish was put into separate bowls. It took quite a long time because there was a lot of fish on the counter but the Leos really enjoyed themselves doing it. A few others helped to peel chicken for the dogs.

At around 10.30 a.m. , all that had to be done for the day was completed. So we spent the rest of our time playing with all the dogs and cats. They allowed us to take out the puppies from their cages as well. When it was 11.00 a.m., it was time to go. The Leos were really upset but they were happy that they were able to volunteer for the day and spend time with the animals.

Just before we left, we took a group picture. We reached school safely at around 11.30 a.m. and the Leos went home. We really enjoyed ourselves today and we hope that all the animals at the shelter will get a good home and that there will be no more animal abuse in the world.

A Report on the Leo Club of Taman Petaling's Installation

On the 12^th of August 2011, 10 leos from the Leo Club of Assunta, attended the installation of the Leo Club of Taman Petaling. The theme that they have chosen this year was the 5 wonders of Nature which had a very meaningful and powerful meaning behind it. The event was held in the SMK (P) Taman Petaling hall. At around 2.00p.m., all the leos from various schools reached and were gathered in the hall.

To start things off, the Nation anthem was sung followed by the leo pledge which was led by one of the leos of Taman Petaling. Then, the event continued with the roll call.

Next, was the induction of the new leo members. Lion Ivan was asked to come on stage to induct the new members.

The new president, Leo Casheen was then invited on stage to make her first speech as the new President of the Leo club of Taman Petaling.

A few games were played. It started off with a name game. The Leos were asked to stack up the chairs at the 2 sides of the hall and make a big circle. The game went on for quite some time but the Leos really had fun playing it. After that, the performances began. There was a interesting dance performance by 2 very talented leos followed by 2 guest performers who sang a mash up and played the guitar. Next, was another performance by the new BOD for the fiscal year 2011/2012 and last but not least was a group singing performance by all the Leos of Taman Petaling.
