School of the Arts (SOTA) Year 4 Week-long service volunteering – 27 May – 31 May 2019
SOTA Year 4
“Is SOTA coming today?” – BSCC Student
A yearly affair, BCS has partnered with SOTA and the Year 4 students have blessed BCS and our children with a variety of art-themed activities – through visual arts and theatre arts. Over a period of 5 months, the students have also designed toilet wall stickers for Bethel Child Development Centre and Bethel Kinderlites. What other theme to use when designing stickers for a toilet? The students have designed eye-catching and adorable pond-themed stickers, from ducks, to koi fishes, and right down to water puddles and bubbles. Fundraising is also an important concept, of which the students have taken the time and effort to raise funds to print the stickers, amidst juggling their studies and their arts.
To end off their service learning with us, they had a week-long programme where they conducted activities with Bethel Kinderlites (BK) and Bethel Student Care Centre (BSCC), where the children looked forward to meeting them for every session. Finger-painting art sessions were conducted with BK, and while it was truly adorable to see them at work, the student volunteers had to ensure that the children do not make a mess themselves! Fast-paced reactions games as such the famous ‘Bang!’ was conducted with the students from BSCC. With the children’s competitive natures in place, they were fully focused and in the zone of wanting to win our student volunteers.
Their efforts in planning for the previous sessions has left a memorable impression with our BSCC students till they often ask us “When is SOTA coming back?” or if there’s a volunteer group that is coming on the day itself – “are we having SOTA with us today?”

National Day Food Bundle Distribution. A collaboration between G and L Surgical and Bethel Community Services.
In celebration of Singapore’s National Day, G&L Surgical team together with the staff of Bethel Community Services and Bethel Assembly had distributed food bundles to 50 low-income families and elderly who resides in rental flats to help improve their physical and emotional lives. It was as much a fulfilling day for all the volunteers.
The purpose of this National Day drive was to collect, pack, prepare and deliver food and necessity items to needy individuals and families with financial difficulties who live in single room flats. Even in today’s society, there are still many families and individuals who need our aid for basic provisions that we often take for granted. It was an absolutely amazing feeling to share in their lives and their stories and be able to experience their sincere gratitude and joy!
Everyone involved, including the children, were thoroughly enriched on this auspicious day for Singapore.
