For my service learning project, my class and I collected money for flag
day. That day, was a hot day. And after 3 hours of collecting money in a wet
market, my back drenched in sweat, I felt that I had collected a huge amount of
money as my tin was extremely heavy. I felt a sense of achievement as I did my
part for the community to collect money for the elderly and it was a 3hours
well spent.
For the next
part of our service learning project, we went to the all saint old folks home
to do some performances for them. After much practise in the June holidays, we
arrived at the home. When I entered the hall, the first thing that i noticed
was 2 lines of elderly sitting in their wheelchair. After seeing this, I was
determined to put on a good show for them! The first to perform was the guitar
playing which was played by my class china scholars. Next, was piano playing
and after was the playing of the Chinese flute by our very own CO guys.
Finally, it was my time to shine, accompanied with my entire class. It was then
we realise we didn’t have the media equipment to play our song. But to our aid
was my classmate’s phone which saved the day and we managed to sing our first
song, payphone, with ease. Lastly, we sang our final song, Fall for you, we
sang our hearts out. After that, it was the end of our performance and we gave
each elderly a goodie bag containing snacks for them to enjoy. This service
learning project was indeed a success!
