KDSF KLANG - Hearing Test @ 14th October 2024

On 24 April 2026, members and guests gathered for Talking SENse, an initiative by the Kiwanis Club of Taman Tun Dr Ismail (KCTTDI) aimed at fostering deeper conversations around special educational needs. The session featured neuropsychologist Dr Nancy Menon, who shared both her professional expertise and personal experiences in supporting neurodivergent children with behavioural challenges. Her insights offered a powerful reminder that behaviour is often a form of communication—one that requires understanding, patience, and the right support systems. Through real-life examples and practical perspectives, attendees gained a clearer understanding of how to approach behaviour with empathy, moving beyond labels to better support children in their environments at home, school, and in the community. Talking SENse continues to be a meaningful platform for raising awareness, reducing stigma, and equipping families, educators, and the wider community with knowledge that makes a difference.

On 19 April 2026, the Kiwanis Club of Taman Tun Dr Ismail (KCTTDI) hosted a warm and meaningful Hari Raya Fellowship at Turkish Istanbul Café, bringing together both members and non-members for an afternoon of connection, reflection, and shared purpose. We were honoured by the presence of Puan Sri Datuk Hjh Khir Johari, whose attendance added to the significance of the gathering. The session provided an opportunity to update attendees on several key initiatives that continue to shape the club’s impact. Among them was the Kiwanis Child Development Centre (KCDC)—an important initiative focused on providing accessible early intervention and therapy services to children from underserved communities. Guests were also introduced to the Service Leadership Programme (SLP), Kiwanis’ youth development platform that empowers young people through leadership, service, and community engagement. In addition, updates were shared on the upcoming SEN Summit 2026, as well as Talking SENse, a platform aimed at fostering greater awareness, understanding, and conversations around special educational needs. Beyond the updates, the fellowship was a celebration of community—marked by good food, meaningful conversations, and the joyful celebration of April-born members. Events like these reflect the heart of Kiwanis: building connections, raising awareness, and inviting more people to be part of a shared mission to serve the children of the world.
