Brewing Awesome Moments!!!

Dear pupils,

The Prize Giving Day marks the end of your P4 academic year. 

As you moved on from here, do remember the FRIENDSHIPS you've made & the many SPECIAL moments we had together as a class. 

You are all CHAMPIONS in your UNIQUE ways. 

Continue to STRIVE & EXCEL in areas that you're strong in & 

PERSEVERE in areas that you're weak in.

It's not the end but the beginning of many more challenging years to come. 

Awesome EDF Fame!

If the video doesn't display well, go to this link: The Lion & the Mouse Shadow Theatre

4) It is your turn to make your own shadow puppets. 

You should use recycled materials. Your shadow puppet does not need to be very big. While you make it, think of the following:

• Type of material
• Transparency of material
• Colour of material

Attach a chopstick or a satay stick or any simple stick behind the shadow puppet so that you can hold the puppet easily and your hand does not get projected onto the screen!
