Community Service at SWAMi 22 May 2015

Our EDP Choir has reached out to our community and put up a performance for the elderly residents at SWAMI Nursing Home (For the Aged) on 22 May 2015.

This is a community outreach programme that allows pupils to show empathy, respect and concern towards others, contribute to the community and learn to put others before self. Through the interactions with the elderly, we hope to bridge the intergenerational gap between the young and the old, and to improve perceptions and attitudes towards ageing and seniors. At the same time, it is also a platform for our singing angels to showcase their singing talents to the elderly residents at the home.

A total of 53 Choir pupils (p2-6) sang 3 songs at the SWAMI Home.

Pupils were doing reflections in groups. They were very eager to share their experiences with one another.

Beautiful and interesting reflections done by the pupils.
