Community Outreach Programme

 Community Outreach Program. This idea originated from Miss Lee, who is also currently our Head of Department. This program aims to expose Kent's Teslians to school experiences ( fun activities, teachers, students). For our 1st semester degree students, we were asked to performed a puppet show to little children. Our class of 17 students were divided into 3 groups which were assigned to three different primary school each. The targeted schools were SK Pekan, SK Bolong, and SK ???. Only two teams were able to perform the puppet shows in SK Bolong followed by SK Pekan.

Our script writing committee were able to find  a suitable script for us to perform our puppet show. It is a fable called "The Sky is Falling". Sounds familiar??? Remember the small, cute, nerdy and four-eyed Chicken Little? The movie "Chicken Little" was actually based on this fable.

As making a puppet to suit the script was difficult, we opted to maximize the available puppets we had. We adapted the characters in the script according to the puppets we had.Meet the six cute characters from our puppet show.

Then, the puppet stage preparation. Many ideas were churned out. In the end, we managed to borrowed some equipment from our lecturers.
