Xiao Lao Shi (Dec 2005)

Yah yah, I know it is a long time again already but I really wanted to post an entry about the experience of helping Laoshi out at Nan Chiau Primary School. :D Nono, I am not going to bore everyone with the things that I personally had learnt during the times of helping Laoshi out. This entry is just some sudden thoughts that I have again after reviewing the pictures again.

It is really nice to be back to a primary school, moreover the name is so close to my alma mata, Nan Hua Primary School. The time spent there brings us back to our childhood memories where there are patient and kind old teachers willing to teach us the basics of human. The provoking smell of the hall bring me back to the good old days whereby I have to squeeze with hundred of other fellow schoolmates in the hall to listen to assembly sessions.

The place we play and helped Laoshi out.

We also met some really friendly kids there!! As we grew to know each otehr better, they became more trusting and willing to confide in us their problems and we get crazy during breaktime!

Zheng Yuan & Zheng Wei

Xiao Baby 1 & 2 -- they are really very small!!! I mean in size...

OK lah. Their head seems to be very big as compared to Hann Bin and Dallan right?? But their body is so so small!!

It really wasnt a easy job trying to let the kids be used to our ways / style that may differ from Laoshi's. So everyone have to adapt to each other and find ways to compromise with each other. So the 11 of us went home very very tired, although we seem to be extremely cheerful and awake in the photo above. LOL

Many of the kids there had prove really to be matured beyond their age. Not saying that they are very sian sian, but they are very alert and understanding towards some stuff, such as the need to lead the group and that everyone play a part in the group. They had achieved their aim, has they?
