Candle making



I was very excited when this activity came in notice, as I always wanted to make candles of my own. As coloured candles look better than white, I made wax melt by double heating and added red colour and mixed it with the help of spoon. I dipped wig (the thread which burns) in wax and kept it to solidify, and poured wax in the molder. After 20-30 sec, I dipped wig in molder full of wax, so that it stands straight. I kept it undisturbed for 1 day and my candle was ready to serve the purpose. This was a new challenge for me and it was very exciting. In this activity I got help from my classmates and we worked well. I will try to sell my candles well, so that the money we collect collectively will be used for some good cause.

Formation of football team



As I am a football lover, it was really a wonderful and exiting activity. I am working very hard on my team under supervision of Mr. Jackson. He is guiding us and also giving us training to improve our skills and to learn and practise new skills. It would have been quite a difficult situation if I would have been not getting good players. It was my good luck that I got good, efficient and supportive players. In this activity I am learning many new thing like responsibility of team, its paper work, co-ordination with team mate etc. This will be very beneficial for me in future life or professional life. These type of activities unite people from different places. It plays a role of magnet which attracts different people of same interest from different places to collaborate their resources. The best thing about my team is they never giveup. We practice each sunday.
