Moreover, the venue was transformed into a grisly wonderland, with co

On the 13th of July, our very final outing before the actual trip to sunny Cambodia took place at Yishun Community Hospital. It was a day filled with big smiles and blissful memories as we spent our afternoon with the elderly seniors there. We hoped that by spending our afternoon with these lovely patients, we could make their day by encouraging them to get a little more active! With a little convincing, we managed to get close to 15 sporting elderly seniors to join us for a

DAY 1 As the school semester came to an end, it meant that we were only this much closer to our actual trip to Cambodia. 1.5 months to be exact. Serving in an entirely brand new environment sounds like no easy feat but thankfully we had the 3-day long training camp to get us ready. From a dry run of the various activities planned to lessons on the necessary cultural know-how's, the camp was meant to serve as a reminder of what's to come. Day 1 began at the HomeTeamNS Advent

To kickstart the long-awaited holidays, the OVE team made our way to the National Gallery Singapore with the incredible service users of Metta Home for our fourth outdoor session on the 18th of May. As usual, it was fun, a little chilly but most importantly, filled with love as we stood by them throughout their journey to the museum. Visiting National Gallery with the service users was an interesting experience. As we brought them around the gallery, they were fascinated by t

On 6th April 2019, OVE’19 had our 3rd session after a long break! This time we went to Gardens by the Bay (GBTB) for our Metta Home outdoor session. We first met our friendly and enthusiastic service users and mingled around with them before making our way to the Flower Dome. While we were inside, everyone was amazed by the beautiful flowers and trees that were displayed. Our service users had smiles all over their faces as they explored and learnt about the plants and trees

OVE’19 embarked on our first ever overseas bonding trip together on the 3rd day of the New Year, 2019! We were close before, but little did we know we how much more of each other we could learn from this trip. Arriving at the villa in Johor Bahru, all of us were mesmerized by the sheer beauty of the villa that we booked. It was breath-taking. Immediately, phones were out and the photo-taking of our beautiful and humongous villa commenced. The first day was fun-filled with som

Our first ever outdoor session this year to the Singapore River Safari a couple of weeks ago was an absolute success and a whole lot of fun. What better way to kick start the festive season and create an experience just as inclusive & enticing for the service users than the well-received ArtScience Museum located at the heart of Marina Bay! On the 22nd of December 2018, we set out on our short yet fulfilling trip to the FUTURE WORLD: Where Art Meets Science Exhibition as wel
