March PECH visit

For the month of March, the Leos decided to have teach the children of PECH egg painting in conjunction with Easter that was fast approaching.

So, today, a total of twelve Leos and soon-to-be Leos turned up for the activity. Yes, you read right. Twelve! They are Leo Guo Zhang, Leo Tze Yoong, Leo Thiam Beng, Leo Hui Ying, Leo Kimberly, Leo Kan Sha, Leo Sun Pei aka Sam, Leo Jia Yi, Leo Kok Chiang, Leo Sheng Wei, Leo Joshua and Eong Xien. What a list right?

Anyway, we prepared hollow eggs and brought paint and brushes for the children. However, only 10 plus kids were around as the rest were held up somewhere else.

Since there wasn't much explanation necessary, we dived into the painting almost immediately!

As there were as many Leos as there were children, each Leo accompanied a kid while he/she painted.

The children got to go crazy with the colours and they produced really pretty ones!

Of course, some of the Leos couldn't resist trying out their painting skills too =)

And not all used eggs as their canvas.

After the kids finished painting the eggs, they were dried off using a blow dryer
and later sprayed to ensure that the colour would last.

It was great to see the kids having fun with painting but what I'm particularly happy about is the fact that so many Leos turned up! Keep it up guys!

Rawr!

Valentine's Day event with PECH kids

Today, Leo Kar Fai, Leo Hui Ying, Leo Daniel, Leo Vicki, Leo Tze Yoong, Leo Thiam Beng, Leo Guo Zhang and guest Amy went to 1 Utama to distribute cookies for Valentine's Day!

Of course, the point of the project was to expose our club AND PECH to the general public.

We were placed at the cinema floor in the new wing and there were tons of people just waiting to be greeted with a little Valentines Day cheer!
It started off a bit slow but the kids warmed up to the idea quickly.

The children had Leos assigned to follow them and their enthusiasm was received warmly by the passer-bys.

Once the cookies were distributed, the Leos treated the kids to some Big Apple donuts and sent them back a little tired but happy nonetheless =)

Rawr!

KL Tower Trip with PECH Children

Earlier today, a nice, pleasant Saturday, Leo Kimberly, Leo Hui Ying, Leo Thiam Beng, Leo Kok Chiang, Leo Vicky, our guest Winnie & Ai Vern and Leo Samantha gathered outside PECH at 2pm to pick up the kids to go KL Tower.

The kids were definitely excited since it was their first time there. All the kids were went along for this trip. Lucky for us, their caretakers came along too:)

With three cars and a van, we managed to bring everyone safely to KL Tower on top of Bukit Nanas. Over there, we met up with Leo Daniel.

After settling the tickets, up we went to the observation deck. All the kids were given a complimentary binoculars, which were awesomely designed. It was very simple, made out of cardboard and 2 pairs of lenses. Yet, it works really well! All the kids had fun zooming around with it!!

We spent an hour or so circling the observation deck with kids scattered everywhere. Soon after that, we took a group picture. With just one call from the caretaker, the kids would come and gather around, which is really amazing, seeing that these kids are active, playful kids!

Around 4.30pm, we begun our journey home.

All in all, everything went very well and the kids were all bursting with energy. No wonder most of them fell asleep on the way home!

Done with all these details. Photos below!!!!

Everyone waiting to get in!!!!

YES Camp 2007

On the 13 to 16 Dec 2007, the Youth Essential Skills Camp(YES camp) was held at the NS training Centre of Kuala Kubu Baru called Kem Bina Semangat.

Leo Kimberly, Leo Thiam Beng and Leo Guo Zhang joined as camp facilitators.

On the first day, Leo Thiam Beng and Leo Guo Zhang was present. (Kim came on 14th as she was having lectures until the 13th)

We helped out at the registration counter where a total of 120 campers registered.
Our very own DG came and officiated the camp.

The campers were divided into 12 groups of 10. Each group had a facilitator to guide them.

They were to make up their own team name, cheer and shield.(They were pretty creative, too!)and later present it to the rest of the campers.


Later in the afternoon, the campers had games out at the field
where they played games like 'the human knot'and the 'human caterpillar'

Over the course of the next few days, campers went for outdoor activities such as rafting,going through the flying fox

abseiling,
climbing the 12 foot wall
and crossing the obstacle course.

Of course, there were also indoor activities such as the group presentations
At the end of the camp, the Vice DG came for the closing ceremony and handed everyone their certificates of participation/facilitation.
And before we all left for home, we took group pictures!

And that concludes YES camp '07!

ROAR!
