Gecko Inc! - Meeting the kids

Yesterday, my service group and I met up with the children from a local school. It was great to finally see the group interacting with the kids instead of spending most of the time planning. There were 25 kids ranging around the age of 5 to 9-years-old. We introduced ourselves and began with a fun activity to get them comfortable with us. We all grabbed the edges of a multi-coloured paruachute and ran under it when a corresponding colour was called out. They seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed it!

The second activity that followed up the parachuting was quite successful. We thought we'd try a spot of ULTIMATE FRISBEE. This was another hit with the kids and we had bucket fulls of fun.

To end the day off, we gave the children drinks to cool off and pizza.

This was a matter of global importance because we are helping and interacting with kids from less fortunate backgrounds.

  1. How does this relate to "GLOBAL IMPORTANCE"?
