What better way to spend a hot sunny Saturday afternoon than to slide down an 80.ft long waterslide? Not much, I would say .. and our East-Van families seems to agree! 

We'd like to thank everyone for coming to our Waterslide Party and welcoming us into the community with such warmth. Thank you for spending the day with us, talking to us, and playing with us! We are so fortunate to be a part of this lovely neighbourhood.  I hope you had just as much fun as we did 🙂

If you couldn't make it this year ... 

We have a recap! 

Is FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) starting to kick in? It's no problem! Let me catch you up on some of the wonderful things our teachers brought to the party ..

The talented Anna, Jenny and Ehlssie were hard at work painting beautiful butterflies and fearsome tigers onto the happy faces of our buddies!

What was originally a 1-hour event turned into a whole day activity. Taking requests from Robots to Marshall, these ladies made the intricate paintings seem so easy to apply.

Our awesome Talia and Yuka created a bubble mix and supervised the giant bubble making activity 🙂

It does take a lot of practice, but our friends had no problem mastering the art of giant bubbles .. Look at how big the bubble got on the last picture!

The lovely Aïda and Chelsea were in charge of the Watermelon Carving Contest this year. Thanks to our neighbour Save On Foods, we had 7 Watermelons ready to be transformed into something new.

Our teams this year really hit it out of the ball-park with their creativity and imaginations! The winners will be decided through instagram on Friday, July 27th.

1st place will get a $50 gift card to Save On Foods, 2nd place will win the coveted Unicorn Floaty, and 3rd place will get bragging rights (till next year, of course) ...

Vote below for your favorite masterpiece 🙂
