Summer School is Over

Several students spent part of their vacation at our Summer School.  This years summer school program was special and was a lot of fun because everyday is a party day.  We had Harry Potter Party, Aloha Party, Philippine Fiesta (Festival), Ninja Party and Pajama party. 
For the Harry Potter party, they were sorted into houses and these houses competed in games. They also did magic spells before they ate magic jelly beans. The highlights of the Hula party included dancing hula and modeling.  We did traditional dances and games during our Philippine fiesta themed party.  The children got to try "Bamboo Dance." They also tried the game "Pabitin" which requires them to jump to get a prize/toy from a lattice (usually made of bamboo).
The children assembled under the lattice and, when it was lowered, they tried to grab as many goodies as they can. Ninja party was a lot of fun as the children did ninja training in the morning (obstacle course and shuriken shooting) and managed to hide, pick poison and eventually fight a bad villain in the afternoon. At the pajama party, aside from the games they did in the morning, the children were able to munch on popcorn while watching a movie. We had a lot of laughs and fun, and it was a great way to enjoy summer.
