Today was quite an eventful day for me. It was my kindy's 9th Sports Carnival at Sunway Lagoon and it was our very first visit to the water theme park.
Hundreds of families (including us) thronged the world's largest man-made surf beach from as early as 7.30am. The morning shower might have dampened the ground but certainly not our enthusiasm. We were all raring to go despite the rain. Thankfully, it stopped just when the event was about to begin and for the rest of the day, we enjoyed the most perfect weather ever!
Still in a daze... and too stunned by the huge crowd! I refused to walk on the sandy beach and kept clinging to daddy like a koala :(
I freaked out when I saw that Red Indian clown on stilts, and cried haha
Warming up to a dance exercise... the first activity of the day
Halfway through our morning exercise, I was distracted by the panda dancing beside me. I wanted to say hello.
Quite a number of families took part in the sand-sculpting competition. Too bad we didn't have the expertise to take on the challenge
Look at the huge crowd! At this time, the theme park was not even opened to the public yet!
I was not afraid of this friendly-looking girl-clown though... she made me a sword :)
Telematch time! I was sulking because I refused to take part in it but daddy and mummy "forced" me to :(
The teams getting ready to start the match. We played "soak a sponge with water and squeeze it into a bottle".
I was in the yellow team. Some of the teachers came around with big trays of cute butterfly hair-clips and put them on for us. Even the boys got "decorated" hahaha! See, I was still sulking *mum & dad shake heads*
Squeeze 'em dry!
After the match, I burst into tears! Hmm... dunno what was in my mind then, which made me cry. But the good news was, my team won the third place. We were all ushered to the island-stage for the prize-giving ceremony.
I also participated in another game, but didn't win anything.
Posing with some cute pandas from Mandarin Panda, a children's Mandarin program.
Soon, it was lunch time. We had KFC (provided meal) on our tiny mat on the beach.
The Sports Carnival ended soon after lunch. I got another goodie bag and some balloons, and left with a smiling face
We then explored another part of the water theme park - The Waters of Africa. I was not adventurous at all, and refused to play on the water slides. I just played in the wave pool most of the time...
Not into "extreme sports". Just this shallow wading pool will do
The wet playground known as the Little Zimbabwe
Playing water "canon"
The door gifts and goodie bags that we brought home
Our GOODIES!
Drinks, moisturizing lotions, instant cereal sachets, cute clips, lollipops, pens, wrapped gifts...
Books from Scholastic
The wrapped gifts... a cute towel and a puzzle water tumbler. I love them very much!
I was so exhausted, I went to bed at 7:30pm and guess what? I went to bed with my precious bronze medal around my neck HAHAHAHAHA!

ReplyDeleteWow... sports carnival at Sunway Lagoon, do you need to pay for the entrance fee?! Or perhaps it's all sponsored by the Montessori? It's definitely lots of fun to hold a sport day there!^-^
Have a nice day!

ReplyDeleteMy children used to like Genting Theme Park. After going to Sunway Lagoon last year, they keep telling that they love going to Sunway Lagoon more than Genting.
ReplyDeleteThis is real fun! Chloe's school really take the effort to do so many activities. My son's school is only studying and playing in the kindie's playground. haha....
