My Sister graduated with a Pre-school Diploma =]
I dressed up formally, my favourite VERINDINE shoes and Idealism shirt =]
We went to SWISSOTEL THE STAMFORD by taxi.
That is like so much more classier than my graduation at Civil Servant Club at
Bukit Batok. By the way my sister's name is Siti Fatimah, she is 6 on 12/12
and she is from Iman Kindergarten.
Meet the 3 A s,
Aaliyah, Adilah and Amir. They are my cousin's daughters.
I took this picin the taxi on our there. They call me "Cik Amir",
meaning uncle Amir =] The first picture was blur because the taxi was moving.
The table setting and cutlery was superb, top-notch and so high class.
The lighting was great and just look at the ceiling. We sat at table 80.
The food was served buffet style. The food was sooo
SEDAP =]
Meet the
GRADUATE. Haha =]
The performances by these kindergatens are superb, exciting and interesting.
There was a HIP HOP dance using the music
Pain by Flo Rida ft. T-Pain,ethnic Malay dance, Belly dancing , Bollywood dance, Skits, cheer leading,
Broadway, Choral reading and most IMPORTANT of all is the
CHACHA dance which my sister performed with her class =]
Isn't it amazing how these 6 year olds could put up such brilliant performances.
Kudos and around of applause to them =]
The other thing that amazed me was that they even had
VALEDICTORIANS and their command of english had the standards of a secondary one kid. I really
mean it. Then they showed how the teachers inculcate the passion of learning
and reading through fun and exciting mediums. Even though the speeches were
like 5 minutes or less, it is still great. Could you have said your speech to an
audience of around
1000 people in a ballroom when you were 6?
They looked like they were having fun fun saying their speeches.
There was this skit where they showed the love of a mother for her child. At the
end of the skit, the host called up the mother of the main actor. Then the 6 year old
said in the microphone,
" I LOVE YOU" to his mother. Sooo touching.
And these were 6 year olds, I repeat, 6 year olds. Sooo amazing =]
When they wore their graduation robes and walked up the stage, I was like
a
photo taking FRENZY. Parents rushed to take pictures of their children.
Their parents were so proud of them. I was also very very very very very
very very very very very very very very very very very very very very
PROUD of my sister. =]
At the end of the ceremony, my sister took a picture with her teachers.
Most of the teachers are in their mid 20 s and I could say almost all of
them were females. I saw the teachers
CRYING. So emotional for them.
They were like kissing their students and hugging them. This is what
I call a
TEACHER.
In conclusion, this graduation ceremony was a
MILLION times better than
my graduation night. A million times better in every aspect.
TO ALL IMAN GRADUATES 2008, HAPPY GRADUATION and HAPPY embracing PRIMARYHOOD. Haha =]
I got to go now =]
I am going for my UQ briefing tomorrow.
Signing off,
AMIR
