| Chongfu Uniformed Group Trip to Thailand - Day 4(2) |
0830hrs - School starts with a warm welcome by the School 2500 students led by the School Director, Mr Pramod. The elaborated backdrop of the stage, the rousing cheers and applauses warmed our hearts. A welcoming gesture of Thai traditional dances and music broke the barriers of our everlasting friendship. Next, come the exchange of our mementos between the School Director and Mr Gan, the Delegation Leader of Chongfu. Our students displayed their talents with dance and songs that melted the hearts of our Thai counterparts.
The school-based activities offered our students a great opportunity to deepen and broaden our knowledge of Thai educational activities. Our students had a great and learning fun time. After a sumptuous lunch, the Singapore students say byes to our Thai students with "emotional" waves and tears...for some...
We visited the Royal Thai Air Force Museum and the National Scout Association Of Thailand. A visit to MBK (Ma Boon Khrong Shopping Centre) provided our students an opportunity to do last minute shopping. By 1700hrs, we gathered and returned to Silver Gold Hotel. Upon arrival at the hotel, we were warmly greeted by carnival-like Farewell Party at the hotel open court. The School gave us a rousing Farewell BBQ Dinner Party with the host families and school management present. What a memorable night! As the night closed up, we bid farewell with a thank you cheers and hugs to the Thai School teachers and parents who had all made this programme a rousing success.
As I put up this updates, the time now is 0015hrs at Silver Gold Hotel...the corridors of the 14 rooms (twin-sharing) were quiet....and I believed most of them were alseep by now..
Before I signed off...I am heartened to say that we had come to the end of this programme..every part of the programmes and activities had been organised and planned for..had been executed for the benefits of our students....the experiences and the friendship we had with our new-found Thai friends will be in our memories for a long long time....and to our parents who had trusted us in good faith in making this possible...and to our dedicated teachers, Mr Gan Kok Onn, Miss Chiang Yu Rong and Mdm Joanne Chua for given me the opportunity and confidence to liven up to the success of this exchange programme.... Cheers...
