17 May 2008 - First Trip to Sunbeam

- from lk

besides the fact tt I had gastric flu that day, 17 May was certainly a day to rmb because its our first visit to sunbeam..

lets see.. who was there:
guan hui, minmin, keith, BX

thanks to BX and zhimin, we met at the wrong LRT (Keat Hong instead of the correct South View)

After getting our morning dao hui chui (soya bean milk) and zao cha, we wlaked to sunbeam and was immediately greeted with a large group of chirpy children and their "good morning jie jie and kor kor!"

Lucky we have the spontaneous minmin - she established rapport with them as soon as we saw them. while i was lethargic, bx, guanhui and keith were not 100% familiar with playing with kids yet. however they warmed us up soon after by being talkative..

After waiting a long while before all the kids assembled, we finally got started on our introduction game: the kids have to shout out their name, take an eraser then shout out the name of the country on the eraser. Giving out the erasers is however a messy affair as they didn't know where to keep the erasers and some even tried to ask for more erasers.

Lesson 1: No presents until the end of the session + everyone should have the same present!

Pandemonium started to break out after the children started to get more energetic with qing hong deng (traffic light) and the failed blow wind blow.

Ice (catching) ended more like a cardio workout as we could nto catch the many running terrors!

Despite some unplanned circumstances, it was an energetic start to our time in Sunbeam.. =)

Just hope more of you could join us!
