The layout of the obstacles course!
Lyn Lyn's first task was to complete an obstacle course. She has to climb up a staircase, slide down, followed by crawling out from a tent-like place, balancing herself on beams and go around the cones.
What was really nice was that Angelique, Ms Jo's daughter, one of Lyn Lyn's best friends in last year, who's now entered primary 1, returned to see her. From the pictures, she's always standing by Lyn Lyn and guiding her along with the activities. Lending her a hand whenever she thinks is required. But over the last 6 months, since she's left Etonhouse, Lyn Lyn has become a more independent child and rejected all her assistance...she must be shocked by that sudden rejection then!
After completing two rounds at the Obstacle course, they proceeded to the next, where they are required to collect balls from a shallow pool and try to run back to fill up a bucket.
When this ball-transporting activity was over, the N1 kids all went for a short break, when Lyn Lyn was on the verge of dying of hunger, she requested for food, but the teacher told her to sit down first. Without further hesitation, she sat down on the floor on the spot and said: Can I have my food? See how much she was enjoying and apparently, she was causing the delay of her group, as she was still eating when the teachers were about to start the next activity!
After the short break and replenished her energy, she started the next activity, where she is required to balance a plastic turtle placed on a flat surface from one side and return. Initially, Mama thought that the kids were required to do it with egg and spoon, but apparently, they're more generous to the N1 kids and let them use bigger objects!
Balancing seriously!
The final activity for the N1 kids was to do a simple bowling game. Don't think Lyn Lyn would have any problems, as she has been practising the real thing at the bowling alley and at home! She must be very happy to play one of her favourite activities!
All tired after the last activity and the kids congregated on the grass playground, resting for a while before heading back to their classrooms.
Removing her sports shoes and socks all by herself before returning to her classroom.
