Junior Young Achievers'
First Camping Trip
On 25th September,
14 JYAs went for an overnight camping in DUSUN ECO RESORT near Bukit
Tinggi, Pahang. This was a first for many of them. After trekking up
hill from the resort propoer, we reached a campsite in the middle of
the jungle. They were taught how to cook their own dinner and breakfast
and we all had great food which included BBQ chicken for dinner and
toast bread for breakfast. They had a fantastic time learning to rough
it out and look after themselves in the wilderness. Aunty Janet and
her trainers - Bryan, Amrik, Ester, as well as Uncle Raja were on hand
to supervise and look after the JYAs.
Junior Young Achievers
School Holiday Kampung Visit
During the recent mid-term school
holidays, 16 multi-racial junior members of the Young Achievers' Club
went on a 3 day 2 night trip to a kampung in Malim Nawar, Perak from June
10th to 12th 2004. The JYAs left Malim Nawar on the afternoon of June
12th with fond memories and made new friends from SKKD, and were enriched
with the good values of life in Malaysian kampung.
On 8th June 2004, the JYAs made history by being the youngest group of people to ever be in the Polis Di Raja Malaysia Headquarters at Bukit Aman, Kuala Lumpur. They were given a briefing about the structure of the Malaysian police force and the types of job functions available. The JYAs were treated with a tea break and were given goodie bags by ASP Chong from the Public Relations department. The Police Museum was next and the JYAs took lots of notes about the history of the police force. All in all, it was a fun and highly educational trip.
The Young Achievers’ Club & KL Deaf Teens Club came together to organise the 5th Child Sexual Abuse Awareness Week from 29th May to 1st June at the Sunway Pyramid Shopping Mall, with the theme “Teens Take Charge”. There were great response to the FUTSAL and Treasure Hunt Competitions. Check out these great photos. Also see Features page under What Others Say for some newspaper articles about this event.
On 28th February 2004, the Junior Young Achievers together with their team leaders visited the SPCA in Ampang to get a first hand experience on the work of the Society. Aunty Dawn Peacock and Aunty Sabrina, representatives of SPCA gave a tour of the animal shelter and briefed the members about SPCA. They learned some tips on how to look after pets in a responsible way and what the members can do to help animals in need. There was also a Q & A session where the members were given prizes for correct answers. After the visit, the JYAs went back to the Clubhouse for a briefing session conducted by Uncle Jeremy on the lessons learnt from their visit to the SPCA.
