Because a few backed out at the last minute, we only had one full team made up of dads (and some brought their sons). The other team was made up of staff from the PE side.

    interest check to find out what types of activities would make parents more keen to join?

    The bbq set up was executely quickly and smoothly

Their energy and people that showed up really helped to get the event going. Important to have good emcees and a hype crowd for such events, which we did have.

Food was just sufficient. Pre cooking food was brilliant with the short time.

    Next few nights we can also update the stakeholders how many have registered so that they can encourage one another to sign up

Although everything did go well eventually, good to have someone who knows more about the crux of the event on the team e.g. Yen Ping knew more about the BBQ stuff, Madhan knew how to cook etc.

Their feedback was positive and it seems like they would like the activity to continue.


    I guess, dads are easy-going, they like sports-related activities.

    MC Yusof was great!

Thankfully all the dads that showed up for the futsal event enjoyed themselves, but also because they enjoy the sport.

From slides to equipment. The event would not be successful without their collaboration.

Perhaps we can make them part of the planning e.g. if we are doing an Artsy thing, each of them can bring something to support the event. Might be more work for them but might also ensure they attend, since they are invested from the start?

Now only a few so they don't mind. But if not then should have actual time for sharing

    ]]>     2025-05-14 04:26:59 UTC https://padlet.com/yenping_lam/wxak42ke1463u5kf/wish/3449824788     ernie_aripin https://padlet.com/yenping_lam/wxak42ke1463u5kf/wish/3449824943 The number of sign-ups did not tally with the number who attended. Perhaps, its due to the long weekend (Vesak day holiday)


    We didn't advertise more. We can work on this for the next few nights.
