Unity Primary Budaya Camp
The p4 kids were adorable. They had mcm2 kerenah - haraaam nak campur laki pompuan....gaduh pasal the boys play cheat/too rough, ade yg mentel, ade yg cute, ade yg suka nah nak jadi singa, ada yg tak abis2 main bola, ade hyper giler, ade yg senyap, ade got makings to be mats and minahs haha....but overall when asked 'seronok tak?', dey answered 'seronooooooooooooookkkk!!!!!' hahaha dat alone satisfy me lots :)
But it was super tiring...we had to be facis to the kids, jaga our own stations, shout at the top of our voices to make dem listen 2 us, take care of their safety and also teach dem our speciality of budaya melayu. I think all of us are a multi-talented bunch hehe...kene self praise sikit hahaha i mean, we took care of so many stations and played so many games with the kids. We started out slow. Me, Nuraini and Faatihah took abt 30 kids while Lin, Kamal and Fairuz took the other 30 and played a couple of rounds of 'Tiup Angin Tiup', 'Madu ngan Lebah', 'Kucing ngan tikus' and 'Tupai, Pokok, Gempa Bumi' which involved lots of screaming, laughter, smiles and running! And even after 1 whole our of that, the kids were not tired!!!!
I tink Kamal was great in giving instructions to them and making dem listen :p Cikgu Rani was 'exceptional' in giving lame jokes 2 keep the kids occupied while we set up our respective stations ahha...Permainan Tradisional had 3 games...Batu Serembat, Congkak and Capteh. Padahal it was like one the very few times i played capteh but me and kamal main sebat kasi instructions and the kids listened hahaha Lin and Faatihah ajar budak2 main congkak and fairuz/nuraini main batu serembat.
Round 2 involved Silat (Olahraga), Gendang/Kompang and Menganyam Ketupat. My station wif Nuraini was a hit wif the kids! muahahaha dey were so excited getting to kick and punch the padding and of coz i singled out bakat2 terpendam :p but it was so difficult to control dem, make dem queue up and girls fighting with the guys at the back...sheesh ahhaa
The lunch break diden stop dem from running around....the guys playing soccer wif a sponge ball while the girls were sprinting to and fro. Lin standard...gi layan the girls who waited to makan wif her...awww so sweet hehe and so, the girls went to solat leaving me and kamal and fairuz to layan 60 kids! We tried playing charades but it diden work and so Kamal juz like asked who wan 2 play gendang, go. Who nak silat, go. Who nak main lebah ngan madu..go ahaha...and for some reason, me and fairuz ended up giving like 20 plus kids tanding drills haha...'cikgu, bole join tak?' :p
And there were 'miang' girls ahha who waited outside the toilet for me and kamal....coz dey think kamal is hansem! and dat dey wan me to give dem private silat lessons....haiz budak2 ni hahaha Round 3 is the most exciting round. Lin and Faatihah gave them drama lessons on breathing, acting and playing 'Freeze' the kids were laughing and enjoying themselves! Kamal and Fairuz taught them dikir steps and paluan gendang...realli nice :) some of dem can really play well! shd have invited dem to play kompang for us for IVP closing ceremony hahaha and me/nuraini taught dem seni (jurus wajib and bukak2 bunga) ahahhaa dunno y dey always look forward 2 my station yay! :p
We had a final telematch to allow dem 2 apply wad dey learnt for the whole day :) and also an impromptu silat cum gendang performance infront of the parents who came. OK dat was totally not planned...so it was berterabur!!! But on the whole i guess the kids did have fun, we did our best imparting our skills and teaching dem in a fun/enjoyable way. Kudos to faatihah, lin, nuraini, fairuz, kamal and of coz Cikgu Rani. We are the Team of the Day!
