Quoting Sister Susan, “Treat this as an adventure children ! God is letting it rain as a sign of blessing pouring down upon us thanking the tutors for a day out”. So lo and behold our adventure begins that evening. We have been planning for a day out with the children for weeks now and it was finally the day ! It was set to happen on the 11th of September in the beautiful park of Tasik Sri Permaisuri located in Cheras.
The children were more than ready to play after having filled their tummies. So we proceeded with an introductory game of pass the parcel. As the music started, the parcel filled with various task was passed from one child to another. The atmosphere changed from then on as everybody was excited to play and yet afraid to get the said parcel containing their proposed task. The first task was selected by John Wong. He was to describe three of his favourite movies to the rest us whilst acting the parts out. He was certainly not shy in showing his passion for his cartoon heroes.
The next task was performed by Andrew, he was to pluck a flower for his dearest caretaker Miss Susan and that’s exactly what he did all smiles. Not forgetting some tasks performed by the tutors themselves, Adam had to dance to the beats of a song in front of the judging audience and he definitely gave it his all and gained worth applause for it. Last but not least was the act by Ruby and Vivien who had to sing and pull the hair of Kah Yung out respectively. That concluded the first introductory game.
The rain had stopped, so we proceeded to the outdoor games. We started off with the infamous game of “Duck, Duck, Goose” as well as “Ice and Water”. These games definitely tested the agility and stamina of the children as they were constantly running and screaming with excitement. It was definitely quite a sight watching the alliances made between the boys and the girls in attempt to win the game.
