Parent Child Bonding Event for Mothers Day

Parent-Child Bonding Event for Mother’s Day: A Heartwarming Collaboration

On Saturday, 17th May, Regent Secondary School was abuzz with joy and laughter as 37 families came together for a meaningful Mother’s Day Parent-Child Bonding Activity. Organised in collaboration with the Parent Support Group (PSG) and our four Uniformed Groups—The Boys’ Brigade, The Girls’ Brigade, the National Police Cadet Corps (NPCC), and Red Cross Youth—the event aimed to strengthen family ties through engaging and creative activities.

Families arrived early, brimming with excitement. The morning began with an array of carnival-style game booths crafted and manned by our Uniformed Groups. Participants enjoyed a variety of activities such as improvised bowling, target shooting, and First Aid bandaging. These games brought smiles and laughter to both parents and children, setting a lively and cheerful tone for the rest of the day.

The highlight of the event was a cookie baking session held in the school’s Food Lab. Guided by staff from the Nutrition and Food Science Department, families teamed up to bake delicious chocolate chip cookies—a treat they could enjoy together and take home as a sweet memento.

In a nod to sustainability, members of the Environmental Science Club led a creative workshop on upcycling toilet rolls to make handcrafted paper flowers. This eco-friendly activity gave children the opportunity to express their love and appreciation through art, while learning about recycling and resourcefulness.

The NPCC cadets rounded off the programme with an informative segment on SGSecure, raising awareness of the importance of community vigilance. Families then took part in a Kahoot quiz, turning learning into a fun and interactive experience.

The morning concluded with a group photo at the school canteen, capturing the smiles and spirit of camaraderie shared throughout the event. It was truly a meaningful and heartwarming day—one filled with joy, teamwork, and lasting memories for all families involved.
