In
conjunction with the International Stress Awareness Month in April, SCSC has
organised the Stress Free Carnival to promote awareness among Sunway
students. It was held on 29th and 30th of April at Energy Hub from
9.30 am to 4.00pm. The objective of this carnival is to help students to
de-stress themselves from their assignments, tests and examinations. Stress
is part of everyday life and it can be beneficial. However it is of great
importance that students are able to identify, handle and manage their stress
level accordingly. Stress Free Carnival includes the booths:
- ‘Buy Ticket for Them’
Our objective is
to bring the underprivileged children from ‘House of Joy’, which is located in
Puchong, to watch the movie ‘The Amazing Spiderman 2’. The purpose is to take
the orphans out to experience and watch movie in cinema, complement with
popcorns and drinks. Public who are interested in this activity donated RM10,
representing buying a ticket for a child.
- Confession Board (Combat Your Stress)
It is a platform
for the students to confess anything regarding to their studies and etc in
order to release their tension.
- Game Booth - ‘Slap the Book’ (Compliment and Congratulate Yourself)
This is a Free
of Charge game whereby participants just have to hit the books on the tables in
order to flip over the coins to win a Chupa Chups lollipop for themselves. The
participants were having a great fun to unwind themselves.
- Food Sales Booth (Relax and Recharge)
We sell fried
ice-cream and banana chocolates with cornflakes, colour rice or almonds as
toppings. The fried ice-cream comes in 2 flavours which are Yam and Chocolate. The
desserts were yummy and delicious. Most patrons were totally indulged with the
hot seller- fried ice-cream.
On 30th
of April, 123Cheese which is a mobile photo booth company came in and joined us
at this carnival. Their colourful backdrops and funky props attracted the
crowds to post and take pictures. This photo booth has certainly allowed the
students to capture their memorable moments at university with their buddies
and friends.
Overall, the
carnival was a great success and SCSC obtained positive responses from the
Sunway students. It is an honour for SCSC to organise such event to help out
the students to release their stress. Everyone has great fun, food and laughter
where the objective of the event is achieved. SCSC would
like to take this opportunity to thank all the participants for their generous support to
make this event a successful one.
Thank you very muchie! =) |
