A little bit of sunshine is always good for everyone to get more connected with the outside world. On Tuesday afternoon, Janey Gilkey, Supervisor of KACA Playgroup led a group of around 50 children from KACA Playgroup along with their parents to visit the Empire Hotel & Country Club.

The Human Resources Manager, Ms Tan Lee Ngee and two members of staff from the HR Department, Hjh Safiya and Noorlilawati welcomed the group upon their arrival at the Empire Lobby.

This was the second visit to the hotel by the KACA group. This time, however, the visit included playgroups form RIPAS Hospital and Sengkurong, according to Janey Gilkey.

Visits such as these are aimed at stimulating the children with outdoor activities to expose the special children to the outside world and give them a feel of the hotel environment as well as encouraging them to talk and improve their speech.

The first stop made was to the fish pond located just outside the Empire retail shop area, where the excited children had the chance to feed the fish by themselves, accompanied by their parents.

Also included in the tour was a stop at the Pantai Kids Club, where the delighted children played with all the toys available at the club. This was later followed by a tour of the Pantai areas and facilities.
