Sandwich Boarding, Part 2

After gathering a number of volunteers, namely Arjun, Tharmelinggem, and Niroshini, plus our own group members, we started off after school, again wearing our sandwich boards.
Initially, our plan was to go to 7-Eleven, like the last time we went sandwich boarding. On the way, we handed out phamplets to all the students and parents. We also managed to record a few short interviews with some parents waiting for their children. Some of the parents were quite reluctant to be recorded on camera, but most of them were very supportive and willing to be interviewed. All the parents thought that we had very good ideas and they thought we should make this a yearly event.
Our journey was cut short when it started raining heavily, causing us to duck into the SK school for shelter. Some of our volunteers had to leave early for a St John's meeting. There, we handed out more phamplets to the school clerks, who in turn passed them to the other teachers in the SK.
Tomorrow, we are going to stayback in school until 3.30 to organize a walking exhibition. Sounds fun, no? Wait and see!
