Christmas party at nursery

The nursery that i used to work organised an early Christmas Party for the kids and their parents.So,sis,her friend and me went to help out at 8am (I have not gotten up THIS early for a very long time)

My studies for the day had to PAUSE for this day =) Reasons to pause..How often do i do this?It is good to de-stress and have a little fun.


At 8.10am,we arrived on the door step.The teachers were already there.Nothing much to help out at first so we just chit chat and joke around.Then around 10am the workload began to increase and also the stress.First i was helping out with the cream puff.After that with the chicken pies.We had to made more than 100 pies and there was nothing pre-made.The real pie-rush was when the boss said "I will throw the leftovers away...".THROW?What a waste!That was when we really hurried and tried to make as many more as possible.Once it was done,i went to help out with the jelly.It was fun arranging them (learnt that part from my grandmother who is really fussy about presentation).

After all the preparation was done,time to quickly change and turn pretty (Should have taken a photo before and after)

Then.....parents and kids arrived..There was a Santa Claus distributing gifts to the kids.Some of the teachers had to serve the parents while the others serve the kids.When everything was done,then it was the teachers' turn to eat.Most of us only had a little cause we are so tired.But this year is much better.

These are some of the photos taken during the teachers' 'mum mum' time and some after that...

I always don't mind helping out especially with events like this cause it is SO FUN with the teachers...talking,joking,teasing...although once i reach home and after taking a bath,it is straight to bed for at least an hour.
