Krista Lantern Festival
Last Wednesday, my Kindergarten hosted our very own Mid-Autumn Festival which is a popular harvest festival celebrated by the Chinese community.
We made our very own lantern which was later judged for best design. There were lots of food, all courtesy of all the parents bringing one dish each.
I brought in the sweet stuff and our new principal, Teacher Tammy was full of praise to all the involvement that both the kids and parents showed to make this a success.
The festival is held on the 15th day of the 8th month in the Chinese Calendar, during a full moon. We also had some games for both parents and kids.
The interesting one was the musical shoe game.
Me and my buddy Lavisha had a blast!

Crime Prevention + Hari Raya Gathering
A few weeks back, in conjunction with the Hari Raya celebration, the local community from Segambut joined hands with the police force to hold a community event at the Sekolah Rendah Jenis Kebangsaan Tamil Jalan Segambut.
The theme was on Crime prevention and awareness. The children's were brought together for a colouring activity on how should an ideal neighbour / friend be.
While we were engrossed in this, the adults were given a talk and there was also showcase on items seized from criminals. We were all treated to light lunch right after.
Happy Belated Birthday Lord Ganesha
Ganesha Chaturthi is the Hindu festival celebrated on the birthday (rebirth) of the god Ganesha, the son of Shiva and Parvati. This year it fell on Monday, 9th September.
Prayers were held at home and we gave him a fantastic new look, thanks to Aunty.
