7. Charity Car Wash!
• On the day itself, our
friends from various
classes came to help us
wash the cars.
• We split them up into wet
and dry teams for more
efficiency.
• Then, we briefed our
friends about how to wash
the cars correctly.

8. After the car wash..
• We received a considerable amount of
positive feedback from parents and
teachers about the carwash service we
provided:
◦ “My car is sparkly now”
◦ “You clean better than the petrol stations!”
◦ “Will you be here next week, as I would like to come
again to have my car washed”
 All of our friends enjoyed washing the cars
too!

9. How we were „Changed‟
Throughout this whole project, we have got to know more
about ourselves; our strengths and our weaknesses. In
addition to that we became closer as a team and as friends.
This project gave us a golden opportunity to understand the
needs of our community and to promote volunteerism to
the youths in this world, including us!
We have benefitted much from this project. For example, we
learnt about the importance of teamwork, and how
to improve on our plans and ideas to get the most out of it.
We also felt that this whole project has been challenging, yet
fulfilling. It has given us plenty of real-world experience
we would otherwise not have obtained.
