Rosemont School Father's Day 2009

Yesterday Rosemont School held its annual Father’s Day at Woodrose Gym with the theme “Dad’s Camp”. Kicked off the day with a parade of students and teachers divided into three teams: Blue Hikers, Red Explorers and Green Trekkers. Good thing dad and daughter were with the Blue Hikers, the dad wouldn’t be too happy wearing green, he’s a Blue Eagle (Grade School to High School); the grannies, myself and even the nanny…we all came in blue to support our team. It was a fun-filled event with raffle and games such as catch the ball, log relay, obstacle course, scavenger hunt, etc. In the obstacle course, dad and child had to do the hula-hoop! It was just so funny. The highlight of the day was the cheer dancing competition. Yes, dads included! Some were really just feeling it! Mothers had a blast watching their children and husbands shake their bonbons and pompoms. LOL. The program ended with a dance number from all the teachers and the awarding of winners. Blue Hikers are this year’s Champion! Woohoo! The team captains brought home the trophies and each kid got to bring home a medal, loot bag, raffle prizes and lots of happy thoughts.


All the hard work of the students, teachers, and parents paid off. Hats off to the teachers! It must have been hard training the kids (age ranging from 2 to 6 years old) with the routines and all, they even facilitated all the games, with help from the school administrative people of course. The organizing parents were able to raise some funds for the event through corporate sponsors. Food kiosks were at the parking area inside the compound, in case people would want to grab something to eat, best seller was the snow cone. It was a very long day. But we all had a grand time!


Cool dads strutting their stuff; my husband's just shy that's why he's hiding behind another person LOL:
