Welcome back to school

Summer Slam 2018 Week 3 - August 3

The grand final day at Summer Slam 2018 was a blast! We are happy to see that the children enjoyed themselves through the entire programme. Thank you, parents, for your support.

Pizza- the number 1 item on our party menu. Children were thrilled to see how the dry yeast comes alive when mixed with water and sugar. Once we had the yeast mixture nice and frothy, we got down to form the dough. Now that was fun!

While we left the dough to rise, the slammers helped in getting the toppings for the pizza ready. With everything ready, it was time to roll out the pizzas, put the toppings and off they went into the oven.  

Gymnastics- the final session with Coach Annie. The slammers were seen walking on the balance beam, performing the rabbit jumps, donkey kicks, forward rolls, and cartwheels on the boards. That was so impressive!

Coach Annie has slipped in a little surprise for the ‘gymnasts’ in their tie‘n dye draw stringbag.

Now it was time to relish some freshly squeezed orange juice from the juice bar!

Children put the strings on their beautiful ceramic pieces. Thank you to our volunteer mum Tania Misra, who did the fascinating pottery session with our slammers.
Party Time!
The children had a splendid time playing in the inflatable pools, the water slide, sprinklers and blowing bubbles! We hope you enjoy the pictures and videos of our fun day!
We shall meet again on 16 August 2018 when the new school year resumes. Have a great weekend!

Summer Slam 2018 Week 3 - August 2

Day 4 - The first order of business of the day was, icing the cake. Children helped in making the simple yet tasty butter icing and tried their hand at icing the cake. Today is Aunty May's birthday! The slammers surprised Aunty May with a sweet birthday treat. They made a special card for her. The maracas, guitar and rattle drum came in handy to sing the birthday song as Geethan and uncle Dennis led the percussion band. We made a ‘rattle drum’. Our little slammers were seen playing with their drums gladly. Our take-home art and craft is all set to go home.  We were informed by Aunty Tania that our pottery craft pieces will be removed from the kiln by this evening and we will get to see them tomorrow. Yeah! Singapore Sixes- A fun match between Team Sathish and Team Dennis ended in a tie. Our little cheering squad kept the players on the move.  Today was our final dancercise session with Uncle Suhairi. Children enjoyed themselves as they danced to 'shy guy' and 'Everybody dance now'. Snack time We formed the phases of the moon, (full moon, half moon, crescent & new moon)  with Oreos and had that as a special snack.

Tomorrow is the grand final day of Summer Slam 2018. As promised to the children, we will have a pool party in the afternoon after lunch. Please remember to pack a light lunch for your child so they would be able to enjoy the party food in the afternoon. 

We also request for the following items to be sent in your child’s bag with his/her name marked clearly. A swimsuit
Towel
Change of clothes
Sunblock

The party menu:
Pizza – (Children would be involved in making Pizzas for the party. We have taken into consideration the vegetarians).
Lemonade
Potato Crisps
Ice cream  

Summer Slam 2018 Week 3 - August 1

Hello Mums and Dads, 
The day at Summer Slam was just as pleasant as the weather today!
An essential instrument in percussion, the Maracas is what we made today in the series of making musical instruments.  We also worked on the 3 D-art with foam beads. 

It was pottery time with ‘Aunty Tania’ as affectionately addressed by the children. The work on the pottery project gathers momentum as we hit mid-point. The molds were taking for firing to the kiln today.

Bake a cake. The cookery project was a classic butter cake. Would you agree that when it comes to having a cake and then eating it, this timeless treat is unbeatable!  

Gymnastics- The good effort put in by the children saw Coach Annie develop the cartwheel today. 

Cricket- After some warm-up exercises, Uncle Sathish along with Uncle Dennis showed the children how to bat and bowl. Tomorrow we will be having the 'Singapore Sixes'! 

The juice bar took a break and we enjoyed watermelon wedges for the snack.

 

Summer Slam 2018 Week 3 - July 31

Day 2 began with a science experiment. Can a paper towel stay dry in water! 
Pressure- so how do we balance this between air and water to make sure that they both behave. The explanation was made using a piece of paper, a tumbler and some water and of course some air. the older children understood the principle involved here and it was so endearing to find out that the younger children thought we came up with magic!

We are very thankful to Mrs. Tania Rajan, who came in and did a hands-on pottery project with the children. This will continue through the week and you may look forward to the finished product coming home on Friday.

Craft time was 3 D Art - using foam beads in designs chosen by the children. We hope that the artwork will find a place of pride in your homes.

Happy Birthday to our assistant Coach Geethan! Certainly, a party that everybody enjoyed with party food followed by tumbles and rumbles in the Zorb.  

Dancercise today was to the unmistakable club-something number, 'Everybody dance now' by C+C Music Factory.

With all this going on the Cricket drills were also continued and it was about hitting the ball with a piece of wood, also known as batting. The juice bar was at its productive best offering freshly squeezed orange juice that was an invigorating drink for the thirsty cricketers.
