School Service '16

A school service project was held on the 22nd of October (Saturday) by the Leo Club of Wesley Methodist School. This project was aimed to give a chance for the Leo members to make the school a better place to learn, and also to give the school a refurbished look by repainting the volleyball court and basketball courts between Block A and D. As it was held on the same day as Leo Camp, the project was also planned by the camp committee, and led by the organising chairperson, Leo Teo Boon Kee.

Careful planning was carried out before the project was executed. The club decided to repaint outlines of the courts as the current paint marks of the two courts had faded. This was so that students would be able to play their games actively and comfortably during their physical education lessons. Materials such as paint, brushes and tape were bought beforehand.

At 9.15 a.m., the members were divided into groups of three. The project started off with the members sticking tape onto the courts. The purpose of sticking tape was to act as a border so that they would be properly outlined before painting them. The members finished sticking all the tape by lunchtime, and were ready to paint after taking a break.  Newspapers were placed around the courts to avoid staining the floor. The members painted the courts carefully, and all of them delegated their tasks so that the project could be carried out efficiently. The painting ended at around 2.45 p.m. The Leo members then soaked the brushes in thinner and cleared all the newspapers for recycling. Everything was cleaned up properly before the members moved on to their next activity.


As a result, all the activities were carried out smoothly and effectively. The members had cooperated well, and learnt how to work together in order to achieve their goal. The courts looked very well refurbished after the project, and the Leo members’ hard work had definitely paid off.
