This season we had to delve further into our planning to make sure we did not have too many activities during the service period. Therefore instead of putting 5-6 different activities we decided to do 2-3 that we knew were going to improve the elderly’s motor skills, communication skills and of course improve their wellbeing 🙂 We used karaoke, jenga and percussion as we felt this would fully benefit the elderly. Furthermore, we had some problems executing these plans as at times we did not reserve the jenga sets therefore we could not use them as other service groups have booked them and this resulted in us using our other activities as plan Bs. We managed to overcome this challenge by sending weekly reminders to our group leaders to book the materials we needed for our service. We plan to keep the plans the same way in the future unless some unforeseen circumstance were to occur.
