Went to the MINDS Sch at Yio Chu Kang to do cip for the very first day.Was very afraid as there was many unfamiliar pple.Kids was running all over and knocking into me.The v.p Mrs Teng was kind enough to explain to us the admin work and take us ard the sch.Though the sch building was old,everything was there.What surprised me was the varieties of CCAs that the school offers and the nice drawings that the students there could draw.Me and bi xia was assigned to class JP1 which was a junior class.I saw how Ms ugh, the form class teacher was very patient with her students.Some student hugged me,"molested me" as a way to welcome us or some tryin to be funny by looking at our tags for a few times.Though it has a small class size,i find it difficult to handle even one small kid.Esp those who can be quite naughty and stubborn(resilient) at times. Home Econs was their lesson than and everyone have to pack up and go to the ......(will fill in nxt time).It was an effort to make everyone leave promptly.It was a joy when i see the kids wanting to hold my hands while gg towards their venue.

They had to learn how to smash the potatoes,put in magarine and mixed them b4 putting a small scoop on the chips.To me,it was a simple task but to them it was like 20 times harder.There was one malay boy,althought he was the naughtiest boy but he was also one of the smartest.Finished his cooking faster than the rest.Mr Tan was very stubborn,he refused to let go of the bowl he was washing for dunno how many times.

Lesson ended at 5pm and everyone went for flag lowering b4 taking the bus home.It was a fulfiling trip.
