如同往常的每个星期四，在4月12日的晚上“一路童行”志愿队再次来到天河康复学校。而与以往不太一样的是，本次志愿活动的志愿者多了16MBBS的同学们，在这个夜晚他们和队员们一起，再次与这些可爱的孩子们相遇。

Like every Thursday before, IS volunteer team went to Tianhe Recovery School again on April 12. However, unlike in the past, this time students from 16MBBS are also members of volunteers. On this special night, they came there together to meet these lovely children.

节目表演

performance

当主持人提到印度时，小朋友们表现出了浓厚的兴趣，纷纷踊跃举手发言，畅谈自己心中对印度的第一印象。

When the host mentioned India, the children showed a keen interest and raised their hands to talk about their first impressions of India.

接下来是16MBBS的同学们为大家准备的精彩节目。首先开场的是他们带来的吉他歌唱表演，吉他声与歌声交织相融，美好的温情弥漫开来，也让气氛逐渐升温。

Students from 16MBBS have also prepared wonderful performances for children. The first is the guitar and singing performance. With the guitar sound and the pleasant song intermingling, we were gradually surrounded by a warm atmosphere.

当更为欢快的歌曲响起来，志愿者和孩子们一起为歌曲打着节拍，欢笑声溢满了整个房间。

Then, when the more upbeat song started, the volunteers and the children clapped their hands with the rhythm，making the room full of laughter.

舞蹈永远都是抒发情感的最好的方式之一，第三个节目是带有印度风情的舞蹈表演，而为此他们还准备了有趣的道具——肥皂泡泡。在彩色的泡泡中他们随着音乐舞动起来，欢快的舞姿引来大家热烈的鼓掌声。在这样极具感染力的舞蹈中，孩子们放下原先的拘谨，在表演者的邀请下加入他们，并和大家一起用舞蹈来表达自我。

Dance is always one of the best ways to express emotions, and the third is a dance performance with Indian customs. For this performance，they prepared an interesting prop -- soap bubbles. In the colorful bubbles, they danced with music, and the beautiful dance really drew enthusiastic applause. In such an infectious dance, the children were fully integrated into the atmosphere，and joined them at the invitation of performers, learning to use dance to express themselves.

在柔和的吉他声中,本次志愿活动结束了。在这次活动中，大家领略了印度文化的诸多动人之处，而更重要的是，通过这些精彩的表演，志愿者们让孩子们知道世界有多么广阔，也在用行动坚定地告诉他们，不同国籍与不同肤色的人，在用一样的爱温暖着这个广阔世界。

Finally, they ended the event with soft guitar music. During this activity, they have not only enjoyed wonderful Indian culture with children, but also let them know how much the world vast. Most importantly, they want to use actions to tell them that people of different nationalities and different colors of skin, have the same love to warm the vast world.

队员感想

feeling of volunteers

又一次来到康复学校，跟以前一样又有点不一样。一样的是还是那个地方那些可爱的孩子们，他们每次都用一样灿烂的笑脸迎接我们；不一样的是这一次志愿活动还有16MBBS的朋友一起参与。

刚开始我还有点担心，担心小朋友们突然看见许多外国人会很害怕，或者会很拘谨。我同样担心因为语言不通小朋友们没法跟印度朋友们熟络起来。

但当我到达才发现我多虑了。小朋友们表现得开朗大方，印度朋友也用精心准备的表演赢 得了小朋友的喜爱。大家唱唱跳跳，玩得不亦乐乎。

回程路上，我不禁想，愿这些可爱的孩子们都能无忧无虑地成长，长大后能去到另一个国度播撒爱和希望。

One year back, we got a first prize in ENGLISH EVENING and won 1000RMB as a cash prize. Ever since then, one thing was constantly running in our minds……. USE IT FOR A GOOD CAUSE…MAKE IT WORTHWHILE……

That’s when, the idea of donating it to the kids came into picture. With the help of our teacher we found out a place called TIANHE HEALTH RECOVERY SCHOOL - The school for special kids.

The day had arrived to visit the school and all of us were excited to meet the kids. We thought we would bring happiness to them BUT little did we know that we all would get the same happiness and love from those kids. The visit ended by us donating the entire money plus another 300 RMB given by one of our teachers.They made our day so special just by their beautiful warm smile. That’s why I would like to refer them as ‘special kids’ who has the special ABILITY to make other’s day special just by smiling.

The time we all spent with them will always remain in our hearts. My friends sang for them, we taught them how to greet (Indian way by saying NAMASTE) and danced for them and later with them. The amount of energy these kids have cannot be measured. I loved the kids’ enthusiasm, they are so well mannered, independent, helpful, bold. There was never a space for language barrier between us and the children. Message was passed to both of us in spite of the different language.

The kids yesterday taught us how to face problems in life, never to give up，to smile even in our most difficult situation. Sometimes people think about people who can’t walk or talk or do everything that people take for granted. Now, I take nothing for granted. But I find the real disability is people who can’t find joy in life and are bitter. The only disability in life is a bad attitude. With the right attitude one can achieve anything.

The visit to the school left a huge mark in our life. Every kid inspired us to be much better person. The day we all learnt a life lesson.Always keep smiling…it will go a long way…!!!!
