Institut CECE Dolphin Theme Launching Ceremony

Once again, that's not the actual name (which is too long) called the Launching Ceremony of Three CECE Significant Activities Based on the UNEP 2007 Dolphin Theme. and, be ready for a super long post -but only because i have lots of pictures :)

This morning at about 10am, the Leos picked up 6 kids from PECH (the rest had to stay due to a simultaneous actvity in their Home) and headed to Setapak (the furthest place Leo Kimberly has ever driven so far :D ) to Institut CECE. Only the younger children were invited because it was an early childhood thing, but we brought one of the older kids as well to help us babysit :D

After registration and before we were instructed to go anywhere, the children had a go on the swings in the playground
then they gathered...
... for lunch.
the Leos helped serve the children and attended to their every need then the children were gathered again for a "wayang kulit" storytelling session about a dolphin (which i didnt manage to catch pictures because it was too dark)then the children were split into two groups......for another dolphin story. Then, they were given some materials and were instructed to draw a dolphin and create their own artwork.the Leos had a chat with some of the children before they started, to get themselves acquainted and to answer any queries the children had.
(then they noticed my camera) :D the children quickly got started drawing their dolphins Ajay decided to draw the sea first :)
then the Leos helped supervise......while the children put finishing touches on their artwork. then they proudly showed it off to us!

then they gathered the children into the hall...
for the launching by YB Datuk Ong Tee Keat, Deputy Minister of Higher Education.
then the homes were all presented certificates for their participation...
... and everyone adjourned for tea...
...(biscuits and barley!) before heading home.
the Homes that participated were PECH, House of Joy, Rumah Destiny and Gurpuri Foundation, as well as a few kindergartens around the area.
ROAR!
