Post - trip Local Project @ Siling Primary School

Serene, Wanting, Kay and I came down to Siling Primary School on the 28th December 2009 with the intentions to wrap up the local project and to share with the children what we have experienced during the trip. We kick-started the programme at 1020am.

We have prepared a presentation addressing what we have done and experienced over there. As soon as the presentation started, the children sat down with their watchful eyes and to listen with their attentive ears. The children were soon immersed in what we were sharing with them. Curiosity was the word of the day. Quite a number of them bombarded us constantly with questions. As we discussed the lifestyles of the children over there, the siling children compared it to their own. They came to realise how fortunate it was for them to be in Singapore and learnt not to take things for granted.

After the presentation, we had a short Q&A session. We answered many of the burning questions the children had. Their questions range from the lifestyles of the Burmese children to the different cultures among the tribes. We ended the session at 1130am. Although the children did not have the chance to go to Myanmar with us but they certainly widened their knowledge bank of it through our short session with them. 

Yea!! Almost all of us are back at SG!! Please take good care of yourselves and see you all at the next meeting! Remember to finish all the thank-you notes by the next meeting =)

Love, Wan Ting
