Exposure Week

Week 1

 24th April 2010

Well this would be the first week our entire group of Project H.O.P.E visits our fellow future students from Rumah Sayangan. We met in Damansara Utama before heading of to the home in 3 cars.. Altogether there were 11 of us. 

Upon our arrival, we were immediately greeted by several smiley children. We could tell they were as excited to meet us as we were to meet them ;) We started of with an introduction by the care taker of the home, Miss Susan.

Later on, the children ranging from the ages of four to fifteen were each given a chance to introduce themselves to us. This was followed by a short explanation on the objectives of us carrying out this project by Han Xern, our project director as well as a brief introduction from us the tutors.

After all the formalities, we proceeded to carrying out our individual assessments and grading of each student to set the benchmark and level of each student before being able to divide them into their respective classes. 

It was indeed an eye opener to all of us as to how much they are willing to learn and work towards improving their conditions in life. We certainly were granted the opportunity to make new friends. We ended of with a short debriefing by Miss Susan before leaving at 4.

 Even though it was a Saturday, and we know just how much we all love our weekends, the turn out of all the group members just showed everyone's eager enthusiasm and passion to give back to society.
