i just came home from svps' cultural night. it was loaded with pleasurable entertainments and exciting activities. fatin had henna done on her hand and i played chapte....*click here to see how south view broke a record with 550 people playing chapte at the same time same place. i can't remember the last time i had that much fun. i used to be a chapte queen when i was in primary school, but now i could hardly lift my leg...gossssh

we didn't go far to have these shots. believe it or not, these were taken at my kids' school - south view primary's corner called 'nam sam village'.

i took this picture on my way home from the polyclinic this morning. i saw him waiting in his wheelchair by the walkway for his daughter. the moment she saw him, she jumped onto the arm-rest with a big warm smile. even at a distance, i could hear them chattering happily. it was the most beautiful sight.

svps had an open house today. fatin insisted that we'd go coz she wanted so much for us to see her classroom. we only went at 3pm, took pictures and had lots of fun...

there were lotz of programmes set out for the event, and i must say they were pretty good.

they had good spread of goodies for the visitors too. but we only settled for the ice-cream, pop-corn and candy floss!!! fatin didn't quite enjoy the candy floss though. she said she was deceived coz the big candy shrunk until so tiny once it went into her mouth that there was nothing left to savour.

we had a good tour around the school, and this is my favourite corner. the painted eggs impressed me so much that i wish i could bring them home for my own display.

oh yes...they also had concerts and performances lined up since morning and we were very lucky to catch the last shows. mr nazar was the mc and he was quite an entertainer.

after the show, fatin took us to her classroom. it was long climb to the fourth floor that my hub and i were panting like crazy. we couldn't imagine how does fatin manage to climb those flights of stairs with such a heavy school bag five days a week. i guess kids are fully energized no matter how small they are. i shouldn't under-estimate her.

in her classroom, we saw her funny poem about 'phua chu kang' pasted on the board.

and this is fatin's locker. she's sharing it with her two other classmates.

there were so many more interesting spots and activities going on. but i didn't have the chance to snap more pictures as i was always distracted by all the artsy displays on the walls, beautiful pond in the garden, students and visitors taking part in wall-climbing, etc. we are glad that fatin pushed us to go. it was worth it.
