First Field Trip

8th Mar 2012 - Chloe's Long awaited FIRST FIELD TRIP to Lake Garden. MaMa and PaPa were equally excited as this would be Chloe's first outing without PaPa and MaMa. We could not imagine how it would turn out as we must admit that we are both very protective (or maybe slightly "over"-protective) towards our girls. Finally, the BIG DAY had arrived, and PaPa "volunteered" to send Chloe to school together with MaMa. 

Chloe knew that this day is her First Field Trip at the Playground together with her friends and Mrs. Zue. Chloe rose willingly without tears and groaning. So Smart!!! Although she did not moan for tiredness or lack of sleep, nevertheless, MaMa can't help to notice her heavy eye bags which had betrayed her "fake" energy displayed upon her face. 

We arrived school at about 8.10am and Chloe had been sluggish the whole morning, especially after the 10mins nap on the journey to school. Yet, Chloe did not complained a word or misbehaved. Once arrived school, she jumped into the line which belong to her class. She sat quietly together with her classmate until the Head Teacher announced that there will be a change of destination due to the rain. The school teachers did not want to disappoint the children, they actually send someone to the Lake Garden to check out the Playground if it was still wet and muddy. Inevitably, the heavy rain had actually flooded some part of the playground and the Garden was definitely WET and MUDDY. 

In the end, the Head Teacher announced again that they were going to Museum instead of the Muddy Lake Garden. Apparently, we don't think these kids would appreciate the Museum, however, these kids were contented enough that they were still going for a FIELD TRIP to "anywhere" & "Burger King". Yes, the school had already arranged Burger King for their lunch. Of course, with the consent of parents.  :P

They departed at 9am sharp with two buses. 1 teacher & 3 helpers (volunteered mommies) against 10 children in a class. I was quite confident that these kids will be safe and they will undoubtedly enjoyed their FIELD TRIP! 

I am not sure what they did at the Museum. All I know my darling Chloe came back with a HAPPY and ENERGETIC face. She certainly enjoyed her field trip. When MaMa asked her what she did on her field trip, all she said was she saw "Fountain". Ya, I didn't expect her to come back with history or science particulars. MaMa proceeded to ask her about her lunch, she gave me a cheeky looks and said quietly , " I had fries and burger, and nuggets and..." She paused.

"Anything else?" MaMa continued, "Did you eat ICE-CREAM?"

She nodded excitedly. Haha...She wanted to hide it from us but we actually found the EVIDENCE on her nose. There were white stains on her nose and mouth, which were sticky. NO WHERE TO HIDE, dear. 

These kids started to look really tired after the field trip EXCEPT for my girl. *sigh* She was still very excited about her field trip and told MaMa that she wants to go for another field trip with her friends and teachers.
