WMS Leos Annual Farewell 2013

On the 3rd of August 2013, the Leo Club of Wesley Methodist School held its annual farewell for the club’s senior members. The event was held at Thank God It’s Friday (T.G.I.F) which is located at Hartamas Shopping Centre. 69 members alongside 3 teacher advisors namely, Madam Chelvi, Madam Low and Madam Lavanya attended this event. The event started at 7pm and ended at 11pm. The theme of this year’s farewell is S.W.A.G., which is an acronym for Sad, We Are Gone. This theme managed to portray the sadness of the juniors towards their seniors leaving the club.

The event was held to say farewell to our seniors. The door gifts for this event were given to each senior. It is a lion’s head with a pop out tongue. Weeks before the events, we gave out the invitation cards to our seniors. To make the event more interesting, the form 5 members were given a SWAG Badge which was their identity. The badge was their ID throughout the event. The invitation letter was made to look like a task given to them, the “secret agents”. The seniors were ordered to rescue Princess Abilone on the day of the event.

The event began with a punishment game for the seniors who arrived late for the farewell party. The seniors had to recite the Leo Pledge backwards. After that, the emcees, Leo Joshua, Leo Chia Kye Li and Leo Abishek preceded the event with their short introduction sketch. This short sketch is about saving a princess named Princes Abilone. Dinner was then served.

After our dinner, the event continued with a singing performance by Leo Esther and Leo Kristen, who played the guitar. Then, there was another singing performance by the Form 4 members. The Form 4 members performed the song “Here’s To Never Growing Up” .The seniors sang along with the Form 4 members too.

The singing performance was followed by a sketch which was about an interview for a place in the Leo club. The sketch was so humorous that the seniors laughed very hard. The event was then followed by a dance performance by Leo Joel Wong and Leo Chong Wei Hong. The seniors enjoyed their adorable dance moves.

After that, the games session were held. The first game is “The Shoe Factory". Every player is requested to remove their shoes and place them at a place. Each person was then asked to wear a pair of shoes except their own. The person then had to look for the other person wearing the shoe that matches and stand beside them. Only until every person found their pair of shoes were they are allowed to switch back to their own shoes. It was quite funny when some boys had to wear girls’ shoes.

The next game was “Musical Chairs”. However, this was not the typical Musical Chairs. Chairs were placed around tables of which among some were placed with disgusting food. For example, there were lemon mixed with garlic and Oreo Toothpaste. As time was running short, we only had three rounds of this game including the final showdown. The winner was Leo Tiong Wei Shien who received a box of Kisses Chocolate as the prize.

The third game was known as “Baby Wonderland”. Each Form 5 member was given a baby photo of the Form 4 members. They had to recognize the Form 4 members from the photo and look for them to get their desserts which were a surprise. Some of the seniors had a hard time searching for the right person in the photo.

When the game ended, the event preceded with the speech by our outgoing president, Leo Ooi Zhi Xuan. Her speech ended with 3 loud roars answered by every member. There was a surprise singing performance by our outgoing president and Leo Chee Sze Huey. After that, the token of appreciations were presented to the Form 5 members. The token of appreciation is a small bottle with ‘chilling pills’ in it and a candid photo of the club members. In every ‘chilling pill’ is a short joke to de-stress our seniors as their SPM examination is near.

The event ended with a short video presentation prepared by Leo Edward and Leo Joel Wong. The incoming board members then presented each of the outgoing board members with their present.


The event ended with a bang and was memorable for everyone. The seniors especially wished us luck on our Leo journey. It was the symbol of the start of a Leo journey of every Form 4 members and the end of the Form 5 members’ journey in Leo Club of Wesley Methodist School.
