First day of Kindergarten
6:26 PM
Today is Chlovelle's first day of school in Town Center Elementary.
The school in similar to Singapore's Primary 1,
whereby you need purchase your own lunch and take care of your own stuff.
The teachers don't baby you anymore, so the kids have to be independent.
The school system here is different from Singapore.
For example; if i live in District A i have to attend the schools in District A.
So for Chlovelle's case, we live in District A, but our address is under District B,
so that gives her a chance to ballot for a seat in District B schools (only 2 choices)
After many months of waiting,
i am very glad that velle got into my first choice school,
PLUS she is in the same school as Seraphina, only different class. But YAY!
I woke up at 6 to prepare her stuff, and she is up by 630.
Very cooperative and very excited!
New owl backpack that i could not resist buying!
Looks huge on her though LOL
Because she missed her "meet the teachers" session last week due to our vacation,
we reached really early to let her get use to her new school.
We were so proud!
She isn't teary or clingy at all, such a brave girl!
They each have a desk with cubbies to put their bags.
SOOO CUTE!
During their lunch time, i insisted to peep at her.
Daddy didn't want to go at first because I'm acting like a very creepy parent LOL
But i am just curious ok!
I wanted to see how they do things during lunch, and is she well taken care of.
We saw her "pay" for her food and carry her own tray (awwwww) to her table.
SO CUTE
She looks like she's eating well, and i left after seeing that she is fine.
(see! not creepy at all!)
School ends at 3, the long long Q of cars is quite frustrating.
I will probably park further and walk to pick her up tomorrow
Our dear little girl did so well on her first day!
Thank God!
Lastly, i want to thank Serene for helping me get her school supplies
while we were away (we were at Bahamas)
And special thanks to Danielle got answering my gazillion qns!
HAHA!
