中秋节是华人重视的传统节日,也是合家团聚的喜庆节日。所以本会康乐组与妇女组于9月30日(农历八月十一)傍晚6时在会所举办中秋联欢晚会。

当天会所外面的路边停车场搭起帐棚设置为舞台和摆放桌椅,成为活动会场。晚会有餐饮服务商供应的自由餐,另备有月饼、柚子。因为早期的月饼是圆形,所以象征团圆,而柚子则代表好兆头。晚会也有歌唱表演、卡拉OK供宗亲及家属大展歌喉,欢唱与月亮有关的歌曲。携带家眷参与庆典的凯彬宗亲说"我们这次出席庆中秋活动,主要是想让五岁儿子和两岁女儿亲身体验华人的传统节日,加深他们对中秋节的印象,以后更容易了解我们的文化。"压轴活动,也是小宗亲们的最爱,就是上台领个精美的塑料电子灯笼,然后提着灯笼摆姿势让爸爸妈妈拍照,此时此刻,幽暗的舞台,显得颇有浪漫气息,把大家带入节日中,共度美好夜晚。

中秋庆祝活动圆满结束,出席者获赠礼袋,满载节日欢乐与祝福。

Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the important traditional Chinese festivals, and is also a festival of reunion. Therefore, the Women Committee and Recreational Committee held a Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration at the Association's premises at 6pm on 30 Sep 2017 (i.e. 11th day of the 8th month in Lunar Calendar).

On that day, tent was set up along the URA carpark lots outside the Association's premises, which became the event venue. During the night's celebration, we had food ordered from the buffet caterer, as well as moon cakes and pomelos. In the old days, moon cakes were made in round shape symbolising reunion, while pomelos meant good signs. As such, the Committee included these in the menu. There were singing performances and Karaoke sessions for the clan members and their families, and Mid-Autumn related songs were sung. Clan fellow Kelvin Ong, who came along with his wife and children, said: "We attend the Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration in order to let our five-year-old son and two-year-old daughter experience the traditional chinese festival, and to leave a stronger impression of Mid-Autumn Festival in their minds, so in the future it will be easier for them to understand the chinese culture." The grand finale activity was the children's favourite, where they were invited by the host to go on stage to collect electric lanterns, and carry them for photo taking by their parents. At that moment, the stage became romantic with dim lighting, bringing everyone a wonderful festive night.

At the end of the event, the attendees were presented with goodies bags, and returned home with festive joy and full of blessing.
