2011 Grand Ihtifal & Concert part 2

*continued from part 1 of 2011 Grand Ihtifal and Concert post

Up next was a Public Speaking Poem Recitation by the Winner of the Poem Reading Competition; an event held in school by the Speech & Drama Club. Let truth be told, studies showed that the no. 1 fear in life is public speaking, and to witness our student Fatin Amni standing alone on the stage with only a microphone calmly reciting her poem and capturing the audience full attention with her confidence and stage presences was unbelievable. Honestly we had our doubt but she clearly prove us wrong, kudos to her.

 

 Poem Recitation by Fatin Amni entitle 'When I Was Ill '

Awards for the 6 yrs old student was up next followed by Dikir Barat by the 6yrs old boys, singing a song that was inspired back in 2010; after noticing that almost everyone in class was singing the same song, change the lyrics and was an instant hit at school.

After the 5 yrs old Awards Presentation, the show continued with a 'Rhythm Coordination' performance by our 5 yrs old student followed by the 6yrs old girls 'Cultural Dance'. It was such an over whelming feeling to witness these children not only able to coordinate the musical instrument to the music but also manage to memorize the difficult fan dance choreography, with out any assistance from teachers during the show, maasyaallah.

Kudos to the girls,the dance was fantastic to the very end.

Exploring & Learning With Puppet Show !

Assalamualaikum to all parents and friends,

In conjunction with our August monthly theme: Animal and integrating the holy month of Ramadhan, with the help of one of our Teacher's parents,we present a 'Puppet Show' especially for our student.

They children enjoyed themselves singing, interacting and deciding what the story line for the play will be. It was refreshing to see them throwing their ideas to the floor and not being afraid to voice their opinion. Even the parent who assisted us was shocked to see such good feedback and  creative ideas coming from the children as young as 4 yrs old.

Here are some photos snapped that day.

 Just look at their faces.. big eyes and all smiles

Clapping and singing to the melody of the guitar.

Here comes the puppet !

 My oh my that was fun!

LC Annual Sports Day 2011 part 2 ....

Assalamualaikum,

The 6yrs old student participated in 3 event : Walking Turtle, Pyramid Cup and the finale event 'Run Caliphs Run'. They had waited patiently and now its their turn to take the stage, all pumped up and excited.

Unfortunately our school photographer could only snaps the photos from the sideline unlike on previous event. Nevertheless we still manage to capture some interesting photos. As the day get brighter and hotter, somehow the most inner track gets softer. We had to help some student with the turtle walk as the equipment sank into the track which make it even harder for the children to walk on. 

 All fired up and ready to go !

 When the chillies goes marching down ....

 Don't forget to run around the cone.

All flushed face, eyes focused and breathing heavily !

While the children were on break before the award presentation ceremony, the parents participated in the 'Siamese Chicken' event created especially for LC parents. It was a sweet ending to a hard day when we heard that we became the 'LC Annual Sports Day 2011', Champion! Masya-Allah. Congratulation to all our caliphs for all the hard work. You really deserve the win for never giving up even when we were last. Slow and steady wins the race, Alhamdulillah.
