WMS Cross-Country'10

On the 6th of February 2010, the Interact Club of WMS held it's annual Cross Country at Lake Gardens. The aim of this event is to raise funds that will be donated to several charities to help unfortunate kids. The event started off with the arrival of the students and the guest of honour, then a slight briefing for the students. After that, we sang the national anthem and the school song continued by a speech that was made by the principal and the guest of honour. Later, the students warmed up for the race and headed to the starting point! The under-15 category got flagged-off first, followed by the teachers, ex-students and parents category then, the under-18 category. After the race, everyone settled down as prizes were given out to the winners from each category.

All in all, it was AWESOME and we would like to thank everyone who joined and helped out for making it such a great success. We would especially like to give extra credit to the organizing chairperson, Jonathan Lee and his assistant, Giselle Soosay Nathan as well as our teacher advisors, Madam Norhayati and Miss Teng who put in all effort in making sure the event went on smoothly. The event went perfectly as planned and we raised a total of over RM62,000 that went out to several charities.

Here are a few pictures which might give you just a little hint on what was going on during the event, as they say, a picture speaks a thousand words!

Interactors Samantha Ng and Amir Ashraf did a good job on being the emcees for the event.

All of the Interactors worked tirelessly for the event and we are really proud as it was for a good cause. We definitely hope that next year's cross country would achieve even greater sucess. Last but not least, thank you so much for your contribution and endless support throughout this event! :)

Form 4 Fellowship Project

Hi guys!

This is a short post about the fellowship project that was organized and participated by the interactors of Form 4 on the 31st of March. The aim of the project was to foster greater bonding and create a sense of togetherness amongst Form 4 interactors. We started the activities after school, at around 3.30pm. The activities that were conducted include cleaning toilets, labelling teacher's shelves, wrapping the canteen table for teachers with table cloth, repainting 'keep left' signs on staircases and repainting the class markings on the assembly ground. After the activities, we had some games which was conducted by Chan Jun Shern.

Here are some pictures of the games:


The project ended at around 6.00pm, everyone was exhausted after all the activities and games. At the end of the day, we got to know each other better as well as learning to work together as a team. I would like to thank teacher advisers Ms Teng and Mdm Norhayati as well as the board members of the interact club for your support and guidance to ensure that the project ran well.

Cross Country Success and Upcoming Events!

Hello readers!

It's been a while since this blog has been updated so allow me update you on the endeavours of the WMS Interact Club!

For our annual Cross Country event, this year we managed to surpass our targetted donations of RM50,000 and managed to raise a grand total of over RM62,000! All in aid of various charitable organizations such as Childrens' Wish Society, P.S. the Children, Rumah Victory, Pusat Bantuan Sentul and several others. All participants had a great time at Lake Gardens that morning and all ran (or walked fast) for a great cause, all in the spirit of charity.

I would like to thank all participants on behalf of the Interact Club for your kind participation and support! We hope to surpass this year's achievement next year!

Next, we had our Form Four Fellowship Project, organized and participated by the probationary Interactors of Form Four. They helped beautify the school; by cleaning the school toilets, repainting the stair labels and many other activities. The project was aimed to create a sense of togetherness amongst the potential Interactors of Form Four, and it was a great success, despite the rainy weather.
