• On the day itself, our friends from various classes came to help us wash the cars.
• We split them up into wet and dry teams for more efficiency.
• Then, we briefed our friends about how to wash the cars correctly.
Charity Car Wash!
After the car wash..After the car wash..• We received a considerable amount of
positive feedback from parents and teachers about the carwash service we provided:
◦ “My car is sparkly now”
◦ “You clean better than the petrol stations!”
◦ “Will you be here next week, as I would like to come again to have my car washed”
All of our friends enjoyed washing the cars too!
How we were ‘Changed’How we were ‘Changed’
Throughout this whole project, we have got to know more about ourselves; our strengths and our weaknesses. In addition to that we became closer as a team and as friends.
This project gave us a golden opportunity to understand the needs of our community and to promote volunteerism to the youths in this world, including us!
We have benefitted much from this project. For example, we learnt about the importance of teamwork, and how to improve on our plans and ideas to get the most out of it.
We also felt that this whole project has been challenging, yet fulfilling. It has given us plenty of real-world experience we would otherwise not have obtained.
