Amazing story of how Early Steps Care Centre was blessed with a wonderful learning kit from Malaysian Association of France (MAF) whom had heard about the pressing needs of more teaching resources for our special needs children at our centre. Malaysian Association of France and their ladies got together with very creative ideas for a fund raising effort at their 2011 Deepavali Celebrations! Through many emails exchanged, it was finally decided that they were able to purchase the basic curriculum of 16 "Shoe Box Tasks Learning Kit" from USA. Due to the high shipping costs, the gifts was delayed but it finally arrived at our doorstep on the 15th day of our Chinese Lunar New Year of the Dragon Year when Hao Zhi, cousin of one of their members, William Lee came home from the United States and he graciously helped brought them back for us!
Unfortunately the heavy package went missing through flights transit but thank God it was eventually found and hand delivered to William's home address 2 days upon arrival!
When school re-opened for the new season, teachers, parents and children who had been waiting in anticipation, were absolutely delighted with the "Shoe Box Tasks"! Children enjoyed the tasks immensely, with full-focus and attending skills! At the same time, these "Shoe Box Task" kits were not too difficult and burdensome to these bunch of special needs children to accomplish.
So once again, a BIG THANK YOU to all who participated in one way or another so that our children got to use these "Shoe Box Tasks"!
