Without fail, Mama promises Gwendolyn to attend the Mother's Day Celebration in school every year. This year, it was a breakfast tea party, with performances by all classes! Contrary to the previous years, snacks were served at the entrance to the school, with a display of snack items made by the kids! Mama was anxiously looking for the one by K1 Grand Canyon, but was a little disappointed...as there wasn't any. However, Ms Wahila told Mama that K1 did something different in "making" a tree! Well, Mama thought that it would have been something done after the Earth Day discussion (but Mama hasn't been able to verify up till today)?!
This year seemed to have more mothers turned up for the event and the room was all full...All the mummies waited for their kid's turn to appear in the room to perform their special deeds proudly in front of their beloved mummy!
When it's K1 Grand Canyon's turn, Lyn Lyn's class had 2 performance items : Poem Recital and sang a song! As usual, Lyn Lyn was the loudest and clearest when reading her share of the poem! Mama was exceptionally proud of her, when she realised that she's read her words wrongly. She would stop immediately, looked at her script again and correct herself, making sure that she read the correct words! Bravo, Lyn Lyn!
When the kids were done, they returned to their preparation room, leaving the mummies to have some fun...this was something new, as compared to the previous years! Mama enjoyed it, as she volunteered herself to play with the other mums, for a round of charade! Just when she thought that she'll wait to be the last one to be the one to draw out the clue, she's got the most difficult (or the teachers agreed that it wasn't easy) to draw, for the "Three Billy Goat Gruffs"! The only thing that Mama could think of at that time was to draw 3 goat-like thingie, with 2 horns and 4 legs...hoping that the other mums can take the cue from the "3"...Mama acknowledged that her drawing wasn't good and there were mummies laughing and shouted "3 ants"? "3 cockcroaches"...then...one shouted "Three Billy Goat Gruffs"! Phew...not a bad representation eh! [By the way, did any teachers took any pictures of the "3 cockroaches"? If so, may I have a copy please? Thanks!]
