illiyanamohd — 2014-08-21 02:52:10 UTC

1. Music Appreciation for children

2. KidsRead programme: reading @ NLB

- engaging reading skills and drama

- volunteers to teach children how to appreciate language and communication skills

- audience: children from low SES (socio-economic status)

NOTE:

might need to have training to make the project our own so that there's a value adding component

3. Integrating two different groups of society (at risk youth and underprivileged) for character building

NOTE:

Don't want to embed power structures
The groups cannot be more dominant than each other

4. Giving tuition to lower SES children

- 1-4 sessions, one-on-one basis

- To impart more knowledge to kids (needy kids from children's home)

5. Using our individual knowledge and talents to let them discover some aesthetic skills/ physical activities that they might have ( music, art, PE, language skills)

- Audience: needy students (children’s home)

- Or one focused skill: baking cupcakes to let them have a sense of fulfilment of making ‘nothing to making something’

- Takes ~2-3 hours to bake

NOTE:

Possible locations:

1. Home economics classroom

2. Shatec

3. Crest Secondary School (main students there are Normal Technical students hence they have specialised facilities)

4. NIE?

6. Organise events such as small fund-raising carnival

1. Can tie in with groups like YMCA or People’s Association to help them plan the carnival
