Time : 9.00am - 11.00am
The Interact Club of TIGS paid a visit to Rumah Sejahtera (Old Folks Home) together with the Interact Club of HSBP. It was a joint community service project with Organizing Chairman Int. Tan Kah Yee from HSBP and Vice O.C. Int. Khoo Evie from TIGS. The Interactors involved arrived around 8.45am and we were accompanied by our teacher advisors - Mdm. How(TIGS) & Mdm. Teo(HSBP).
The day started with a "Hokkien" song by Int. Karen See from HSBP followed by Int. Wendy Victoria Vaz with a few English songs accompanied by her guitar. Pres. Ng Zhen Xian had also performed an Indian version of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" which totally amused the old folks there! They sang along with our Interactors and some of them even clapped their hands while our interactors performed.

After that, we were given a chance to chat with them. Our interactors listened to their stories patiently besides concerning about their health and life. Then, we played some simple games with them before giving them red packets to cheer them up! Int. Tan Kah Yee performed a magic show which the old folks enjoyed very much.
Before going home, we handed some daily necessities to the person-in-charge there which was some little thoughts from us. We managed to take a group photo with the old folks too!
I'm sure this visit has been a beneficial one to those involved as it has really given us a great chance to interact with the older generation. The visit ended around 11a.m.
Say CHEESE everyone! =)
