Kiwanis Kartnival Sports 2026: A Day Full of Energy, Teamwork and Smiles On 11th April 2026, Monfort Boys Town was filled with excitement as children gathered for the “Mini Sports” event, organised by Kiwanis Club of Pantai KL. This special event was held in conjunction with the Kiwanis Club of Kuala Lumpur’s Kartnival Emas, bringing together fun, sports, and community in one meaningful day. We would like to sincerely thank Kiwanis Club of Kuala Lumpur for the opportunity to organise the Sports segment as part of their main event. It was truly a great collaboration that created joy and lasting memories for the children. Mini Sports (Under 12): Fun, Games and Team Spirit The Mini Sports segment was specially designed for children under 12 years old, creating a safe and fun environment for them to play, learn, and build confidence. Six homes participated, kicking off the day with high energy and excitement. The children rotated through three engaging games — Capture the Cones, Bean Bag Throw, and Scarf Tag — each testing their speed, accuracy, and teamwork.  The highlight was the Relay Race Finale, where teams worked together through a series of fun challenges before sprinting to the finish line. The field was filled with cheers, laughter, and strong team spirit. 🏆 Mini Sports (U12) Winners • Champion: Zotung Refugee Catholic Centre • 1st Runner-up: Zo Learning Center • 2nd Runner-up: ZER Zomi Education Center Football Tournament: U12 & U17 Action At the same time, an exciting football tournament was happening concurrently, featuring both U12 and U17 categories. The matches were competitive and full of passion, with teams showing great skill, discipline, and sportsmanship. 🏆 U17 Category • Champion: KRLC • 1st Runner-up: ZEC • 2nd Runner-up: ZLC 🏆 U12 Category • Champion: ZLC • 1st Runner-up: VEC • 2nd Runner-up: Zotung More Than Just Competition While trophies were awarded, the true success of the day was the joy, confidence, and friendships built among the children.

The morning sun heightened as some club members , volunteers from IGB and friends stepped into Kebun Bangsar at 930am with 31 children from Hiichikok Foundation.The city noise faded into a gentle hum behind us. With children in tow, the visit quickly turned into a small adventure—one that balanced curiosity, movement, and a touch of calm that’s rare in the middle of a busy urban day. The first thing the children noticed was the openness and the variety of plants , trees and vegetables. There was space to run, to wander, to simply be loud without the usual reminders to “keep it down.” They darted ahead along the paths with adult volunteers, stopping every few steps to point at something new—a cluster of plants, an interesting sculpture, or chasing the farm animals like turkeys , geese , and goats . What makes a place like this special with children isn’t just what’s there, but how it invites exploration. The greenery became a kind of playground without swings or slides. Leaves turned into treasures & sticks into tools . It was unstructured in the best possible way, letting their imagination do most of the work. At one point, we slowed things down with a snack break .Sitting together, we watched as the children shifted from high-energy running to a drawing session of what they have observed & discovered . Drawing talents from the children were drawn out as they express themselves on paper with pencil. It was a reminder that children don’t just need entertainment; they need space to discover. Many memories with the children were captured in photos and videos . The children also received goodie bags from IGB . Our sponsor , Mr Lim from Lovns Cafe joined us at the kebun at a later time with his family When we left the Kebun at noon , shoes were slightly dirtier and energy pleasantly spent. It was a great experience for the children and adults to connect with nature The children were then given a treat at Lovns cafe in mid valley , specially arranged by its owner , Mr Lim. Prizes were then given to the top 3 best drawing given by Mr Lim . After a time of winding down over pastries and drinks , it was time to part and bid our goodbyes . It was indeed a day well spent with the children and we hope to bring them on another adventure with the support of well wishers and donors . Kiwanis Club of Pantai KL like to thank the kind sponsorship from Mr Lim , Lovns Cafe, volunteers from IGB with the goodie bags and friends who made a difference in bringing joy to the children .

Creating Spaces for Comfort, Hope, and Stories The Kiwanis Club of Visionaries (KCV) is proud to support the launch of a community reading space at Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur, in collaboration with Books For A Better World (BFBW). Hospitals are places where people seek healing — but the waiting can sometimes be difficult for patients, families, and caregivers. Sometimes, a simple book can provide a moment of calm, comfort, or inspiration. Through this reading corner, visitors and staff can browse and enjoy a selection of pre-loved books while spending time at the hospital. This initiative reflects the shared belief of KCV and BFBW that books can uplift spirits, encourage learning, and bring communities together. We would like to thank the team at Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur for supporting this meaningful initiative and providing a space where reading can bring comfort to many. At Kiwanis, our mission is simple: 🌍 Serving the children of the world 📚 Promoting learning and literacy ❤️ Strengthening communities Together with partners like Books For A Better World, we will continue to create more reading spaces that inspire and uplift. #Kiwanis #KiwanisClubOfVisionaries #CommunityService #Literacy #BooksForABetterWorld #ServingTheChildrenOfTheWorld #Malaysia
