Bread Pudding

We made bread pudding during lifeskills today and it was a sell out!

What you need:
2 cups of milk = approx. 500ml
20 teaspoons of sugar
5 eggs (beaten)
2 teaspoons of vanilla essence
Grounded cinnamon to taste
1 large loaf of white bread
1 baking pan (We used a square one approximately 2 inches in depth)

Serves 6-8


First, we mixed the sugar, milk and eggs then vanilla essence in a bowl.
Next, we tore the bread into pieces and put them into the baking pan.
Once the bread fills up the whole baking pan, we placed the crust on the top.
Then, we poured the mixture into the pan of bread.
On the top we sprinkled grounded cinnamon and sugar.
Then we baked the bread pudding in the oven preheated at 175 degrees Celsius for 30-45 mins till it turns brown.


This was everyone's first time trying the bread pudding and we loved it. You can also add chocolate, raisins, fruits or nuts into the pudding to make it a different flavour.

Enjoy and hope you like it as much as we do.

Outing to Meridien Primary School

Hello everyone, we just came back from our outing at Meridian Primary School.
The objective of this outing is to experience what recess is like in the mainstream primary school and to purchase food and drinks from the canteen stalls.

We walked about 600m with 8 kind volunteers who spent their morning with us. When we arrived there was a friendly teacher Mr Lew who led us to the canteen. All the wonderful smiles on the students greeted us warmly. They waved enthusiastically at us too!

We made purchases at the stalls, which isn't usually the case for our snack time as we have Auntie Chew to cook for us and prepare snack. We visited the library and had some time to browse the books. There was no air-conditioning in the library but there were more books compared to our reading lounge.

There was an eco garden and playground at the school where we also visited. It was a happy experience for us. We would love to visit them again soon. Thank you for the kind hospitality!

Hail the royal baby!

Hello everyone,

After much anticipation, the royal baby has arrived! And a healthy 3.8kg baby boy! He will be the third in line to the throne after his father Duke of Cambridge and grandfather.

The baby's name is not known yet but he is the Prince of Cambridge. There are speculations that the favourite names are George and James. We are all eager to find out what the baby's name will be.

As of now, no pictures of the baby have been released to the public.

We are excited as we await more news about the baby boy, what his name will be and pictures in due time.
