Days before
This year, I finally bought them sarong kebaya. Well, should have pre-empt that majority of students could be wearing that since their school is located in the Katong area.
Anyway, the girls were pretty excited with their costume. Few days ago, I brought them to the shop and did their shopping. Mei-mei attracted the people's attention there being the youngest and the cutest. One of the customer brought her out to the main area "mama (grandma in peranakan) mama , you look at this cute little anak".And I thought she really looks good in the kebaya.

Mei-mei's school asked us to bring some food which represents our ethnic group. Haha! I'm not peranakan neither is hubby.
I decided to pack some stuffs for the kids instead coz' I thought maybe the kids will be overwhelm with so many different kinds of food in class.
Bought them mini rice-dumplings, kueh lapis and kueh salat. Packed them up.

21st July
Mei-mei's school celebrated Racial Harmony today, as across the whole of Singapore.Not for che-che's school which did the next day to coincide with some Mother -tongue thing they have in school.
Gave the snacks to her FT and showed her how to bring up the box handle as I did not do it, to make lugging around easier for me. I love the box!! Amazing hor? I managed to squeeze printing; pasting and assembling everything within one day.
The children in her school. When I saw the other children brought to school. I thought the parents either didn't understand the note (bringing codfish snacks, biscuits ???) or I've read too much into the lines.
