Visit to The Hills Community Health Centre

The CCCA President, Mrs. Jenny Lau, together with 10 members visited The Hills Community Health Centre. We performed line dancing and sang some mandarin and Cantonese contemporary songs. At times, some seniors also came onto the stage to dance and sing with us. Everybody had a good time. When we left, one lady told me that “today is the happiest day of my life”. She even invited us to come back for another performance in the future.
