Kids Just Wanna Have Fun Project


On the morning of the 26th of February t around 7.30am, the Leos from SMK Assunta, SMK Seafield, SMK Taman Sea, SMK Damansara Jaya, SMK Subang Utama, Leo Club of Petaling Jaya Integrity (O) and the Leo club of ACG Benevolent Untiy(O) gathered in SMK Assunta where the event was held. The clock struck 8.00 in the morning, most of the children from all four homes which are Rumah HOPE, Rumah Charis, Praise Emmanuel Children Home and Rumah Kanak-Kanak Sayang were already in the compounds of the school. The first thing lined up for the day was the opening ceremony. First of all, the emcees gave a brief explanation about the purpose of the event which was then followed by a couple of speeches and the acknowledgement of the honored guests and as well as the children at the event. To officiate the event, the honored guests were invited to cut the ribbon as a sign of officiating the event. Next up, the children were told to head over to the field for a morning exercise

Following the morning warm up, the children were split up into their individual groups and the games were started. After that, it was lunch time and so the Leos led the children to the canteen of SMK Assunta to have lunch. The children’s meals were ordered from Kentucky Fried Chicken. As one of the homes happened to be vegetarian, they were given noodles for lunch. After lunch the children were given ice-cream which was a hit among them as they kept on coming back for more.

Lastly, after lunch the kid headed back up into the Gallery of SMK Assunta for some entertainment. First up was the performance entitled “Double Dream Hands” which was performed by several Leos. Following the performance was a clown show. It was definitely a fun performance and good one indeed.

At 2.30 in the afternoon, the closing ceremony was held. The emcees of the event called the caretakers as well as the guests of honor on stage to each receive a token of appreciation from the Leos. Later on, the prizes were given out to the winners of the games and the project ended with the handing out of goodie bags to the children as a sign of appreciation for their presence at our event. The children left the school compound with smiles from ear to ear.
