On 31st July, participants from Singapore Institute of
Management (SIM) Global Education came together for a meaningful
afternoon of teambuilding activities with a special touch of community
service element in it.
In collaboration with SIM and the chosen beneficiaries – Viriya
Family Service Center and Whispering Hearts Family Service Center;
charitable organisations which lend a hand to provide both community and
social services to low-income families in Singapore. There were a total
of 65 children and youths of different ages, races and gender who
turned up at the programme.
Prior to the arrival of the children and youths, the participants
from SIM were split into teams and were tasked to design and create
welcome gifts for the children. The teams showcased their creativity and
craftsmanship by making DIY stationary cases from scratch as well as
building nanoblock figurines. The children and youths were presented
with the gifts upon arrival and it instantly brightened up the
children’s faces.
After which, the participants accompanied the children into The S.E.A
Aquarium Challenge! where they were given a colourful race booklet and
had to search for the answers within the Aquarium. Through the race, the
participants were able to interact much closer with the children, and
at the same time the children were able to enjoy seeing the marine
animals in the Aquarium, an experience that may not easily come by any
other day.
At the end of the programme, all the efforts and hard work were worth
it when we saw the wide smiles and also knowing that the children have
truly enjoyed the whole session.
Feedback:
Everything was done so well that I’m sure we will engage FOCUS again in the future
