I approached West Coast Student Service Centre to find out about their needs for projects to educate the students at the centre to improve their phonics and literacy skills. Together with the YEC Community Service team, we came up with proposal and presented it to the centre. After gaining approval, we started to prepare for the project.
I was feeling very nervous nearing the date of the project as I was afraid that something might go wrong or the students might not be engaged or interested in the activities. However, with the assistance of other volunteers, we managed to conduct a successful and meaning event for the students. They have enjoyed themselves and brought home with them the phonics phones and small gifts from us.
I have learnt a lot through the event, about planning projects, managing people, liaising with external organizations etc. The process has enriched my experience as a youth leader and I am definitely looking forward to head my second project!
