Graduation Day 2011

Ronnie Yap — Sat, 29 Oct 2011 15:15:13 +0000

Today marks the graduation day for both Julia and Jason from Year 6 and Year 4 respectively. Well, technically it’s a pre-graduation celebration as both of them have yet to sit for their year-end exams. I guess the school didn’t want to distract the kids from their exam preparations, thus doing it earlier.

This year’s event would be a long one for both the missus and me, as they did the Year 3 to 5 session in the afternoon, leaving the Year 6 graduation ceremony towards the evening. That means we’ll be there from noon till night!

Jason’s dance performance seems an improvement compared to last year. His reflexes and co-ordination looks much better now.

Jason again got the Best Improvement Award for the second consecutive year. I guess he’s slowly but surely improving. WELL DONE, SON!

By the evening, it was time for Julia to graduate.

Once again, she proved her abilities by getting an award for the third consecutive year… two awards, in fact. The first being Best Reader – English, which was her second consecutive year getting it.

The icing on the cake was snagging the Best Reading Competition (English), which was held onstage during the event. She was pitted against three other children of equal caliber and she easily outdid them. WELL DONE, GIRL!

Darn it! I need a better camera

Next year will see Julia going to primary school in Standard One, while Jason will be enrolled to a new kindergarten in Midah. Here’s hoping they will carry on with their studies diligently and make all of us proud.

Julia’s 4th Birthday

We celebrated Julia’s birthday earlier (it’s actually on the 5th), to coincide with the weekend. Time flies when you watch your kids grow up and before you know it, she’s four years old already.

"I am four years old."

We celebrate with everyone at dad’s place, with the usual feast by mom followed by the cake-cutting event.

With Darrell and Charlotte

Make a wish and blow the candles to make it come true.

With a little help from grandpa

Happy Birthday, Julia

Haircut For The Kids

The weather’s been kinda erratic lately, so we decided to give the kids a haircut to make them feel refreshed.

Julia got hers cut into a short bob, done at Quick Cut Giant Bukit Tinggi for RM15 on 30th August.

We gave Jason the fastest and quickest style – crewcut. Done at a barber shop at Klang for RM5 on 9th September.
