TSOD Junior Dance Group

20 March 2016 (Sunday):

Rachel was selected to join the TSOD Junior Dance Group. She was elated since she did not got it at the last audition 2 years back.

The Yishun branch decided to have a dance group of its own. This selected group of students would represent the school to take part in competitions and events and performances. However, this means additional classes and practices. I have pre warned Rachel before hand on the additional classes she would be having and this means longer hours of practice. She was all for it. :)

And only after the 1st lesson, she was told by the teacher, Ms Jasmine Koh that they will all be entered into a competition, hence the lessons would be stretch from the usual 1 hours to 1.5hrs at least.

From the initial 3.15 - 4.15, classes are now from 3.15pm to 4.45pm but with most lessons, the timing would be stretch to 5.15hrs but there was once, almost to 5.30hrs.

Well, so long, Rachel enjoys her classes, Mummy here would definitely give full support.

RAD Ballet Exam Open House

17 Mar 2016 (Thurs):

The Grade 2 students were having their ballet open house this evening. This was a pre preparation for the mummies n daddies to have an idea what kind of syllabus the kids would be tested on and what have the kids been practicing and learning during those extra classes every week.

I leave you with 2 character dance video clips I took.

Sprained

07 Mar 2016 (Mon):

This poor baby sprained her wrist while playing on the monkey bar n fell.

Happened last Thursday but the pain lasted only a few mins, hence this gal ignore it. She did not tell me abt it even when i brought her to her ballet coaching class. The pain only intensified on Friday n my mil brought her to the Chinese sinseh.

And this is how her wrist looks now. I cant see how light or serious the swell was/is as i was away at work the whole weekend.

She was able to bend and turn her wrist gently, therefore the sprain should be light.

She will be having her RAD Grade 2 Ballet Exam Open House in 10 days time and I do hope she has recovered by then.
