Tessa's First Performance

Today is the day of Little SkoolHouse By the Vista's graduation ceremony and concert. It will also be Tessa's first performance.

Daddy and I are feeling very anxious and excited! It is our little girl's first concert! How amazing is that?! She has been showing us her little mouse dance at home. The teachers have worked very hard to teach and prepare the kids for this performance. We are looking forward to her performance.

Before the performance - getting ready for the show

As Daddy was on leave today, we managed to reach the school early and caught a glimpse of the kids getting ready and putting on their costumes and make-up for the concert. Our little girl looks extremely adorable in her mousey dress.

The teachers and staff at LSH have put in so much efforts into this event. They even put up exhibits to showcase what the children did in school.

The event started with a speech by Miss Ann, followed by two parents whose children are graduating from the school.

The graduates did a little dance before receiving their certificates on stage from Miss Ann.

Finally, the show started! The script of today's performance was written by the graduating K2 class. It was adapted from the Aesop fable on the lion and the mouse.

The audience was totally tickled by the N1 monkeys. Yee Xuan in particular was very entertaining and funny. The audience gave their performance loud applause.

The toddlers also joined in the performance. They are so adorable. I can almost imagine my little Dylan doing this.

Finally, it was Tessa's item.

The little girl was so anxiously looking out for us that she did her steps half-heartedly. It was only when she spotted us in the audience (we were waving like mad) then she immersed herself in her dance.

It was a very heartwarming concert - put together with so much love, friendship, sincerity and dedication.

We are very very proud of our little mouse - she was confident, calm and composed. She remembered her steps well and did her very best.
