The elderly guided the children in building robots using blocks and coding the robots to perform tasks.

In an interview with CNA, Kaulder Lee Xu Bin, 6, a child from MFS, expressed his delight in engaging with the seniors during the coding session.

The positive interactions were captured on film, with footage of MFS children being featured on CNA, Channel 8 and BERITA Mediacorp.
