The 4-week school holidays are coming to an end... The children will be returning to school on Monday. We were constrained in our holiday plans this year because of my illness. They spent 5 days with Reuben and Reuben's dad at church camp in Melaka.
Our kids have been kept pretty busy during the holidays though. During the holidays they still had to attend their tuition (Chinese for all, maths for Alisha), golf lessons and practice for all four, piano lessons for the girls. They also had an outing with Karen Lim and her kids to ice-skating, bowling and swimming. David and Alisha were invited by Nora and Sharin for a workshop to make a scrapbook.
Yesterday and today Jonathan played in the Standard Chartered Seletar Junior Golf Championship, representing his home club (Keppel). The competition was held in Seletar Golf Club (northern Singapore). Over the 2 days, he played well and came in first place for nett score 71/68 (Jon played 5 strokes lower than his handicap of 17.8), bringing home a crystal trophy. Jonathan shared with us that during the last 9 holes, he shot an "arrow" prayer, took a deep breath before taking each shot. He was very encouraged to play his lowest round of golf in a competition.
Today, Alisha, David and Janice played in a different golf competition in Changi (eastern Singapore). Alisha and David are both playing in the final round (top 4 players in their age group) tomorrow. Updates tomorrow.
