Report on Vision of Peace

On the 17th of October, the Leos of Assunta assisted during the Peace Poster Contest 2010 (Theme: Vision of Peace) jointly organized by the Lions Club of Petaling Jaya and Sin Chew Jit Poh held at Subang Avenue. We kept an eye on the participants and helped them if they were having any troubles as they were mostly below the age of 12.

The participants gathered around and the opening ceremony was conducted. Lion Kesavan as the president of the Lions Club of Petaling Jaya gave his speech and presented a token of appreciation to those involved in organizing the event.

Then, the participants were divided into their respective catagories. There were two catagories in this competition, which was just colouring or drawing and colouring. The children took their places and prepared their work area. At 11am the competition started. The duration given to complete their artwork was about 2 hours.

At 1.30pm, the children handed in their completed masterpiece and were given time to have a break. At 2 pm, it was the prize giving and closing ceremony. Many prizes were given out and the winner of both catagories had impressed the judges with their wonderful artwork. It was great to see so many talented artists even at such a young age.
