Hi poetryinmotion,

Do you have any cafe in mind?

Also what about activities? are we gonna sit around and talk for the 1 hr or 2 hrs?? or can something be created in this gathering which would be fun and productive?

Hi there,

I think we need more input from others so that we can better plan the gathering.

Hello Sultana..

Im not sure how many people is going.. if i were to suggest a cafe im afraid there won't be enough space for many.. so must pre-book or something.. maybe after knowing each other we can have an activity like games or what.. By the way Sultana, where r u from?

Well, if the participant are big, maybe we can hold in a function room of any community centre or in a hotel.

1) Should have an activity to break the ice and get together.
2) Engage a event organiser to plan for entertainment
3)Engage a caterer for light refreshment
4)Invite a speaker for a motivational speech
5) Sing a long karaoke together

We should minimise the activity for the first gathering as when we already know each other well, then we organise more interesting activity ..

Hi poetryinmotion

I'm from Singapore but i'm living in Melbourne. Just as a brainstorm idea, wht cafe did u have in mind. From there we can have a few option on how many ppl can be accommodated to any venue that we come up with.

Yes, definitely need more input to plan this event. But you guys are doing just that, giving input.

Point noted abt minimizing activity. What if we can create an activity which allow members to get to know one another?

@ Ifah...u seemed to have quite a bit of experience in these kinda gathering ;) i like point 5. Sing a long karaoke together.

It would sound quite costly to engage these organizers and caterer.

Would any of you would like to take charge of getting sponsors??

If we can get the venue , food and entertainment sponsored that will save alot of cost on others.

Nb lounge could give advertising to them in exchange for sponsorship.

also i can get my brother's band to play some song. But first have to check wht kinda songs they play. Don;t wanna be too hard core might be offensive to some of the members here who don;t listen to music.

Hi Sultana,

Any ideas how many people have responded?
As we have yet to get to know each other,I think we shldn't meet at the Orphanage yet cos our objective is to familiarised with each other.Maybe on our other gatherings then we can think of that (for charity)

As for sponsorship,It's a good idea.

Hi guys,
Good responses here. ;)
I think I can assume that we all agree that weekends especially Sunday since we are not working is a good day for us to hold our 1st gathering.

@Zahara
Thanks for your input :). We can hold charities at some other time. I agree with Fifiany. The objective is to get to know one another.

@ Poetryinmotion
Yup. Cafe is good too. Thats exactly what I had in mind :). I was thinking of The Mind Cafe. http://themindcafe.com.sg It is cafe at the same time a place for people to play games. It is interactive and we can get to know one another at the same time. But they say they are not halal certified establishment yet. They are going to get one. They do not serve pork, alcohol, liquor. But I am not sure if this is acceptable or not. I am more assured if they are already a halal certified established. Then again the programme called Suria Segar at Suria Channel have promoted this cafe. What do you guys think?
Do you guys know of any cafe with games that is already halal certified establishment?

Hi Intuitive,

I've been to Pitstop cafe & Settlers.. I must say Settlers Cafe is better as the place is bigger, but u have to make reservation though as they're always crowded. And also, if many of us will be attending, it will be kinda difficult to sit and play games as we have to split our group to different tables. Then, we won't be able to interact to one another. Hmm.. Meanwhile, lets think for another venue..

@Poetryinmotion
Yup we need to come up with other avenue..i'm not sure what avenue and so I need more input.

@Anyone
Do give more input in this discussion. Keep in mind that there may be different range of ages who might be interested in this 1st outing. We would love to have an outing which is fun for everyone no matter what age you are. I am having a mental block, I can't come up with any interesting activities. Please hep. Thanks :)
