Ocean Defender

Later, we went to the Ocean Defender with kuya JC and we went inside the boat and it is really big and he (the Greenpeace volunteer) asked that we defend our ocean. We watch a film and we went up and we saw more (smaller) boats. Then we went to the control room where they control the boat and I’m the captain there (wore the captain’s hat). We took photos in the boat. To contribute to this, I will take out the trash and put it into the dump truck.

(Rowin - The Greenpeace Organization have docked and displayed their biggest Ocean Defender ship called MV Esperanza, a Russian fire-boat re-fitted to be environmentally-friendly as it helped the dedicated advocates to document, defend and take definitive and creative non-violent actions against “ocean abusers”, at the Manila Pier. They allowed the public to view it as part of their awareness programs about the dire situations of our seas and oceans)

Jello Jellyfish

Zek, Aim and their cousin kuya JC had a grand time looking with fascination at the jellyfish on display.

CFA – Spelling Bee and Talent Presentation

Later, when my Dad and I were late because it’s 1 o’clock, we were just in time and I can still play because it (spelling bee) has not yet started. The we all got our seats and the Grades 1-3 started the bee. After they spell, it was our turn and I was on the violet team. We won (second place) the game. I told a story too (title: Grumble, Grumble Gurgle Roar).  I ate ham and cheese sandwiches. Then it was raining so we went home fast.

(Rowin - Kudos to all CFA parents and students contributors for holding this successful 1^st ever Spelling Bee last Friday, July 26. The kids and the parents of participants indeed had a blast watching the talent presentations of the students and the kids poured out their all in matching wits with their classmates on the Spelling Bee.  Thank you, Lord for this wonderful day).

Meeting Friends

Later, when my mom and I left the house, we went to SM Hypermart in Pasig City and my friends were there. We ate some food at the restaurant. I ate chicken and rice. Then we went to Quantum and play then I won a prize. And my friends (Lila and Fry) have a dog named Chino. We played marble with them and we had lots of fun.

CFA Friday Club : Story-telling

Later, my Dad and I went to the ninth floor with my classmates because the story-telling and the puppet show show is starting. So we all went inside the room and the first story is about the fish and the shrimp and the teachers were doing the action that the fish and the shrimp were doing. And the teachers asked questions. The second story (puppet show) is about the goat, lion and two dogs with music and the teachers asked questions again. The third story is about the ant and the dove and they did actions too. And the last story (puppet show) is about the mouse and the lion. The lion wanted to eat the mouse but he released him and the lion was captured. The mouse rescued him. We pray for all the stories (lessons learned) and we ate snacks (courtesy of the birthday couple - Bro.Bo and Marowe. Thanks po :) ) and play with my classmates. Then we went home and got lots of fun and that's the end of my story. :D

Museo Pambata

When we travelled to Museo Pambata, we had lot's of fun learning.

First, we went to the forest where there is a bahay kubo and an eagle with a slide. Second, we went to the under-water sea where there are big fish and a shell. Third, we went to the city where we saw lots of heroes (Filipinos during Spanish time), boat (Spanish Galleon), funny faces (those thing-a-ma-doodle where you insert your face and you have a painted figure on the other side), a train (early tram), church (Binondo), jeep, and a big (Spanish-style) house. Fourth, we went upstairs and went inside through the giant mouth entrance (except for Aim who was obviously scared by it). We saw the inside of the body, an x-ray, mirror, magnifying glass, body noises and a "jumping rope" inside the stomach (Rowin: :D that's the 25-foot small intestine replica).

Fifth, we went to the city with Chess game and a TV, a wind mill, factory, a bicycle, a cow and a jeep. Sixth, we went downstairs to see the art class with painting and a shop. Seventh, we went to Singapore area. There are clothes, big drums and a slipper painting.

And that's the end of the museum visit.    

Aim's First Hair-Cut

Pauline's 7th Bday

When the party started, the children played games while their parents eat lunch (actually its early dinner :D). I ate tarts, barbeques, spaghetti and hotdogs then I have photos with my friends (and cousins!). I ate also cotton candy and popcorn. Then at night, we danced and played and popped the balloons. Then, we went home.
