School Time!

Oh my.. oh my... sometimes I really wonder.. where does the time go??

Within the blink of an eye, our little baby is now 2 years old, and is all ready to go to school! We've signed him to join Apple Tree playgroup, which is located just opposite our block. It's a 2-hour daily programme. I just hope that Vio can enjoy playing there with his new friends, and not be as shy as before! We were worried at how will Vio react to new environments, new schedules, and new people....

So here's how the first day goes. Before going to school: photo taking session at home!

For his first day, mommy accompanied Vio to school. Second day will be with Daddy, and third day onwards with Nai2. For the first week, it'll be half-accompanied, to let the children feel settled before we finally slowly letting him stay by his own in the class.

First time reaching the school, all the students were asked to sit down lined up, while the teacher calling the student's name one by one, for temperature taking. Vio's name is almost at the bottom of the list. He seemed so anxious while waiting, cannot wait for his turn to come.

The class topic for the day was "red" color. The students were shown many red objects, and was given a chance to try on some red stuff. Surprisingly, Vio was more than willing to go to the front to try out the stuff, all by himself! He's not clingy to mommy.. sooo proud of him..

When songs were played, Vio was one of the fastest one to start moving his body around and dance... Heheheee... He really likes music..

During the class, the children were also asked to color an apple using red crayon..

Wow, he really looked like a good student. Always paying attention to the teacher and actively participating in the class. Soooo happy... I was really worried before that Vio will be the most shy and cry-baby in the class. In the end, he didn't even shed a single tear in the class :)

And does Vio excited about going to school again? Yes, very much! When he heard the word "school", he'll be quite excited and wanna sing "Apple" song.. hehehee..

One thing we noticed though, ever since he started on his school (for the last 2 days), Vio just refused to have afternoon nap! He just wanna play and play and play even though he's tired. Maybe it's because he's too excited about his new school and friends... Hopefully he'll want to take afternoon nap today...
