this year's Teacher's Day Dinner is at tiffany cafe at furama city centre.
went there together with my last year's FT partner, mr ray chua. when we reach there, we realise the teachers from punggol pri sch are also having their teacher's day dinner over there, but it is inside a ballroom.
and the moment we step into the lobby, i find this place familiar. then i realise i came here before for prom nite when i was still teaching at the previous workplace.
for the past 2 years, our teacher's day dinner have a theme, and we must dress up according to the theme, and our colleagues will double up as emcees, entertain us, and there will also be a lucky draw, and the lucky draw prizes are very good. last year's top lucky draw prize was a staycation at MBS.
this year, the staff welfare committee let all staff do a survey, and majority of the staff prefered the themed dinners to be on alternate years. so this year is just a buffet dinner at tiffany cafe.
if you ask me, honestly, i still prefer the previous workplace's arrangement. on the day of teacher's day celebration, have a good lunch in the school, and you are free to do your own stuff after that. last time, after the lunch, we will go sing ktv. now, i will rather go home sleep or play with yuanze.
ok, here are the pics of the teacher's day dinner!
it was free seating. here are my table mates. from left to right: mr poon, teach maths, previously the hod mathematics at damai sec; mr ray chua, teach physics, my partner FT last year (we became Talk Cock Buddies because of our partnership last year hahahahaha); mr nigel chong, teach DnT, also the discipline master; mr steven neo, my fellow pe colleague; mr ang shi da, teach physics, the subject head for partnership. the colleagues label us as the kopitiam uncles' table, because we were very noisy and rowdy. that day was also the day for all of us to reveal our angels' identity to the mortals. so everytime when someone comes to our table, we will all just cheer very loudly (me being the loudest of course). hahahahahaha.
introducing my angel, miss atiqah! she is the ICT associate in the workplace. although she is not a teacher, she is a great colleague and great friend to all of us. she bakes very well, always take good photos of us during events, and of course settle all the ICT stuff in the school. and she is also my neighbour (who sits next to me) miss ong huiping's angel. what are the odds? there was one time when she delivered presents to both of us, and at that time we of course do not know that she is our angel. it was really quite funny now that we come to think of it. and for this angel mortal game, our school principal's angel is none other than... ... ME!!! everybody was cheering when i went up to the P and told him that i am his angel. hahahahaha.
last but not least, of course must take pic with the pe dept! thankful to be in this dept. best dept ever!
