Fish Feeding


We had a fish feeding session at the Sports Complex on Jan 2nd (a replacement holiday in conjunction with New Year Day). Missy has promised her 'chong-gung' (granduncle) earlier on to meet up for fish feeding on the New Year Day but it has to be cancelled due to downpour. Missy had her first fish feeding experience during her previous RE Excursion sometime in Oct last year and but this experience is definitely going to be something new.

  
Gu-gu was probably assuring her that fish won't bite


Garnering courage to toss the bread slice

Ready to toss

Upon getting there, granduncle along with 2 of her aunts was waiting with a massive bag of bread loaves. Without much ado, we headed over to the platform beside the lake for fish feeding. As usual, Missy was rather apprehensive but managed to warm up after a while and enjoyed tossing bread into the pond.

There were literally a region of fish of the same kind inside the pond emerged to have their ‘snack’. This may be contributed to the good weather that day where the water in the pond was said to be ‘less muddy’ (although still look very mucky). 




Feeding done

It was a good exposure for Missy to learn how to show kindness to living creatures as well as the beauty of sharing (food with the fishes and sharing some bread slices with children around who were watching so they could experience the feeding too).
