      On the 22nd of April 2017, 10 Leos accompanied by 1 faculty advisor as well as 7 Lions made their way to the Neighbourhood Learning Centre. The Leos gathered in school at 9.45 a.m. and proceeded to the centre at 10.00 a.m. with the Lions.                After a 15 minute drive, we reached our destination.
