Visit To Agathians Shelter

     On the 31st of October, 16 Leo visited Agathians Shelter, an all-boys orphanage, as a 'Spotlight On Children' project. The aim of the visit was to have a face-painting session with the children in conjunction with Halloween. The Leos and children were first divided into 4 groups. They were then asked to come up with a team name and also to draw a "flag" for their team within the time given. After that, the respective team members had to face paint each other according to their team name. It was overall a fun and beneficial project as it boosted creativity of the kids as well as the Leos. ROAR!
