SFE Parent-Child Bonding Activity - Roller Blading - 17 July 2010

The heavy downpour in the morning did not deter the spirit of 17 pairs of parent & child. They turned up eagerly in school awaiting the new challenge ahead of them.

The activity had to be carried out indoors in the canteen and despite the space constraint, the parents and girls had an enriching time learning a new activity together. For the parents, it was a humbling experience as they put themselves in the childrens' shoes learning a new skill. For the children, it was definitely a tickle to see their parents fumble. After a 2 hour long session, there was definitely a sense of accomplishment for all as they managed to learn the basics of roller blading and were happily gliding around the canteen.

Thank you to all parents who took the time out to engage in such a meaningful activity with your children and we will see you at the next SFE programme.

Read-A-Thon Book Carnival - 2 July 2010

What a day 2 July was for SACPS - a Book Carnival marked the end of the Read-A-Thon fund raiser of 2010 and it was a day of festivity for the girls.

For both sessions, level activities were carried out for the day and with a slightly longer 45 minutes recess break, the girls were able to enjoy the mini fair put up by the CCEs. The girls truly enjoyed themselves by snapping up foodstuffs such brownies, gingerbread, muffins, chocolate marshmellows & sweets, hair accessories and stationery. The highlight for the day was the special teachers performance of The Big Bad Monster and The Three Not-So-Little Pigs in the hall.

It was a fun-filled day for the girls and we could not have done it without the 2 groups of CCEs - one group who so generously heeded our call for item donations for the event and took the time to drop the items off in school during the school holidays; and the other group are the CCEs who volunteered their precious time and energy to help out during the event. Sincere appreciation from Ms Annie Foo, Mrs Corinna Foo and the Exco members and we look forward to your future support.
