KIC event 2012

Today is the day we had been looking forward for!!
Marina barrage co-operliciouz event!!

I took bus with hajar,  and with the toddler, playgroup n k1 parents.


 Upon reaching marina barrage, hajar guide the parents forward together with hirah.
Me and val collected the goodie bags.
Omg, i carries anout 40 goodie bags. I'm sure i'll experience shoulder ache soon.
Seriously heavy man!

 At gathering point, teachers distribute the goodie bags to the respective parents.

Then hajar and val went to level 2 to aid with the choral reading of 10,000 fathers reading "a very big storm" with their child.
I stayed in level 1 with hirah.

We roam around, assist parents when needed!
Basically not much work to do. Hahaha.

 Hirah went to pray, and i waited for her.
And meanwhile, BOOM! fireworks display.
Awwww, such a waste tt i didnt watch it wif hirah. She was at different venue as me!

 Overall, it was a chaotic event!

 I gt scolded by bus uncle.
Cuz i call him once i gather all my parents.
Then he go pick up point.
Then we gg walk frm assembly point to pick up point but was stopped by management.
They say we can only walk to pick up point when bus is there, which they will inform us if bus reach.
So we waited.
 Then uncle call me n say he had reach n where were we.
So i say okay, we walk there now.
Then he shouted "how come now then walk? My bus cant wait for long de. U shld walk long time ago what".
But the thing is management stop us ma -.-!

 Hais. Miscommunication sia:(
 And no clear instructions were given throughout the whole event. 
What a disappointment. 

 Anyway, its overrrrr!:) 

 Love,
huimin

EDS visit when komathi and hajar not around with me ):

Komathi was on mc.
 Hajar helped infant as there were shortages of teachers.

 And EDS jus have to came today.
What a day.

 I split my class of 13 into 3 groups; 6, 3, 4.
I did father's day card with one group while other two groups play manipulative.

Still managable.
Thank goodness there was only 13 children who turned up today.

 Anyway alan had fever; 38.9 degrees.
His grandma picked him right after i called to inform of situation.

 During children nap time, Ms rai had a brief meeting about (kIC event tomorrow) with me hajar val and hirah.
She had asked hirah to go tmrto replace komathi!

 I allow children to play block corner aft high tea. :)

 Oh yes, i helped hajar check library books to be returned!
Seriously nuts!
Then i returned library books with hajar.
Put the books in a trolley (which i borrowed from cooking aunty. Hehheeeee.)

Went home at 7 when i was supposed to knock off at 4.30!
Hahahahah!

 Xoxo, Min

latest update: komathi is leaving! wohoooo

We went outdoor.
Wohooooooo! ;)
Fresh air fresh air!:)

 And hirah, hajar, komathi and me continue with squirrel hat during children nap time.
We not only do for those children who is going to KIC event, we did it for all 19playgroup and 7toddler children :):)
So proud of ourselves.

Andddd. Latest news: Komathi going to be transferred nxt wed!
Her Last day in this centre would be nxt tue.
Wow, that's pretty pretty fast!

 Oh yes, Ms rai spoke to me about father's day.
She was thinking up of collaborating with ministry.
She wrote letter to ask "DADs for Life" to sponsor us goodies to give out for father's day.
This way, we can save cost and not collect money from parents(as they had been paying a lot this month, for KIC and field trips).
Hopefully, we would be able to get sponsorship for goodies.
Hehhee.

 And and.... There will be 40principals coming over our centre next tuesday!
Gosh, got to tidy up the area!!

 I am counting down for the day komathi leave the centre.
Muahaha

In the morning, i mention to ms rai about father's day event; sand art.
She say she doesnt want to discuss another other thing except for KIC.

Oh well, she say we can talk about father's day event when KIC is over,
which means nxt mon talk abt nxt fri event -.-!

 Since waheedah is on leave, and huang lao shi (being new) cant b left in class with tcr kim(trainee teacher),
so  i was asked to help take nursery for today.

 19 children came today.
 When i went over at about 930, tcr kim is reading a book about cars to blue group.
While red group is doing drawing with huang lao shi.

 At about 10plus, i read them a book on goldilocks and the three bears(a book i brought from home).
Aft tt gt them drink water.

 Then i went k2 to help a while le.
So i think meanwhile the nursery play toys.

I helped k2 with squirrel hat making. 
Soon its shower time n lunch time.

Then need rush to do squirrel hats.
 So i get 18 children (6 each time) to do sponge painting.

Then nap time.

During tt time, i went to call parents.

 1)to confirm kic transport-by our bus? No? Yes? If so, made payment?

And 2) to check for participation for garden festival on 11th july. ( Some parents say they didnt recieve consent form. So i photocopy a plain copy frm tcr rose and pass to those children alrdy during sending off time) 

 So aft nap, chn had high tea. 

Then huang lao shi gt them to draw eyes for squirrel while i cut out the squirrel from the paper they jus painted (cuz i gt not enough time to cut during their nap time) 

Then its 4.30pm, and i had to go back pg.

 Today mcys officer came to check on hovan (for i-dunno-what reasons).
 Then ms rai ask me to relieve k1 while qiu lao shi come pg!
(since tcr roz on leave and cheng lao shi no longer here).

Hence, i took k1 today wif liu lao shi. 21 of them came today.
 Me n liu lao shi each read them a book.
Then get them to draw the things they like abt the book on colour paper.
Which most of them bring home.

 And we went outdoor, a walk around neighbourhood.

 Normal routine of shower, nap which me and liu lao shi was quite lost since both of us don't really know the children in k1. Hahahah.

 During nap, i sat around the children and ensure they close their eyes.
Being firm, all of them slept! except for justin!
Still, i think i did a great job!:) 

 Aft high tea, i took temp.
And phuwadet was having fever 38.5.
 I had dap him wif towel of normal tap water and called mum.
Maid came to fetch! (lucky i took follow routine and take temperature aft high tea)

 During sending off, teachers need to get parents to sigh a consent form (tt MFS wldnt be liable for any accident tt happen on 9june, KIC day)
 As qiu lao shi go back at 5.30pm, i came back to pg! 

Omg, whole pg go haywire wif komathi!!!
 The thing tt anger me most is she can still happily use her hp!
Ahhhhh!

 Being angry is my last emotion before leaving the centre.

 Breathe!!!
