ESN Carnival - 3rd September 2011


All Saints Tampines participated in the Elderly Sector Network (ESN) Carnival, and we offered 2 stalls - Cone Ring Game & Fishing Game. Our performing group involving 2 residents and 5 volunteers eventually won the consolation prize after much hard work - led by our ever energetic Rae.





This innovative "fish pond" were fully designed by Mosaic Ministry, an external volunteering group that frequently joins our weekly service. This concept successfully attracted much attention from the crowd on the day.









Equally addictive is the Cone & Ring Game, we had seen residents playing 4 rounds just to clinch the ever elusive top prize.





Our sister home - All Saints Hougang







The event started off with the lion dance performance till our ear drums are "blasted". A great way to wake every one up!








Where is my first customer?

There were 2 sessions for the carnival - morning & afternoon. Each session accomodated 200+ residents.
