Off to Summer Camp

With Dr Hassan





Sunday, 25th November 2007, we sent off 3 off our children to Dato' Dr Hassan Ali's Summer Camp in Sungai Lui, Hulu Langat Selangor. Two of our other children, Nurlina and Ahmad Arif had the benefit of the same summer camp many years ago.



We have been wanting to send Ahmad Afiq, Ahmad Aizat and Nurhani to this camp for sometime and finally we managed to do it.

Afiq and Hani were nonchalant about the whole thing but Aizat, as usual, was trying to find excuses not to attend. He was even complaining of stomach upset the night before. I was not sure whether it was for real or just an excuse but we managed to get some medication for him.

We arrived at about 8:30 and started the registration process. At about 9:30 the opening address by Dr Hassan started and he took about one and a half hours. His introduction included a family get together session which attracted tears from all of us. There were about 280 participants in total and we left our kids at around 11:15am. We know they are in good hands.

We also know that they will be changed kids when we pick them up again on Tuesday but for how long? We, as parents need to learn the "Art of Parenting". This subject we never learn in college but we need to use them for the better part of our lives.

Have fun kids. We love you all.
