nEbO Junior KidzQuest II
"Nothing can beats the feeling of bringing life to the kids."
On the 11th September 2009 (Friday), students from Temasek Polytechnic Engineering School volunteered and took part in the Junior KidzQuest II, organised by nEbO and L.I.F.E committee members. Some 30 children benefited this trip and they were brought by the volunteers to the Singapore Flyer where they enjoyed a ride on the world's largest giant observation wheel. The volunteers and children really had fun interacting with one another!
This event has revealed the fatherly and motherly side of the volunteers, especially from the scene of them holding on to the younger children or those who show sense of insecurity during the ride.
Even though the time spent between the students and children is short, happy faces can be seen from the volunteers and children. At the end of the event, we were reluctant to say goodbye to another and we hope to see each other again soon.
