Third day in Kerala
On the third day, we were back in the classrooms again, attending classes. During class i realised that the students do not interrupt the teachers as often as we do and are more attentive in class than we are here in Singapore. We should actually ask mroe questions and less nonsense during class. There was alot to learn from their learning styles when learning. :)
After classes was the Kerala Day celebration, we were required to wear traditional kerala wear called the 'mundu', above you can see Kairen, Don, Bertrand and Kenneth wearing it. haha. they look good, i guess. Yea, then we went for the celebrations at the auditorium, where Mr Cheong presents the drawing to Fr. Austin, the principal of RPS. We saw lots and lots of different dances and were actually very captivated.
When the celebrations ended, we sat through a science seminar which was actually a science presentation competition where students would present on their various research project, kind of like a 'project's day', in a smaller scale. Through this, we got in touch with some of the many talents in this school and we came to know that what they present is actually very similar to what we learn here in singapore.
Right after the science seminar we went for out backwater cruise which was very fun, everyone was dancing and having fun, while taking in the wonderful scenery around us, singing, dancing, and snapping of cameras all in one boat ride!
After the boat right we were all very tired, after dinner at a hotel, we went back to rest and the third day of our journey seemed to end in a flash.
that's life.and it does not end here!
