Talent Shows and Campouts

Highlights from this week:

Maeser finished his FIRST chapter book. 

There is an amazing group of women here who adventure to different destinations in Singapore each week. Last week was an Orchid Farm and giant pottery kiln. We picked for 15 minutes and our basket was full!

Further up the road is the Pottery Jungle. This is the head of the giant Dragon Kiln, and it goes all the way up the hill. You can make your own pottery in Saturday classes, or you can shop from the huge warehouse.

Mary had her first overnight outing with school, the experience is called Classroom Without Walls, and every consecutive year the trip gets longer. She hiked in Pulau Ubin, went bowling at the hotel, got rained out the second day and then returned for the remaining week of school. 

Dan "volunteered" for the stake talent show. Their act showcased the best talent of the night. The children enjoyed it thoroughly and the whole evening was reminiscent of the old roadshows... there were three mandatory practices prior to the evening performance. I was blown away by the amount of work some wards put into their contribution.
