First day in school & kite-flying outing

Yesterday, Zhirui had her first taste of school. Well similarly, Mummy had her first taste too.. of sending her kid to school.

As would all typical first-days stories go, it started off key with Daddy announcing the night before that he had to fly kite, both literally and figuratively.. He's going to skip attending the class with ya tou & I and go to West Coast Park for a corporate event (a kite festival).

We tried to prepare everything swee swee in order to make Zhirui feel at ease that morning. But somehow, there's always insufficient time & in the end, we still can't avoid rushing things till the minute we left home. We reached LNT 10 mins later than planned, though the class will only start in another 10 mins. After filling the registration form, teacher Lynn took us to the classroom where I tried to condition ya tou to the environment. It didn't took long cos the room looked friendly and soothing. Soon teacher Wang gestured the start of lesson. It's Chinese class today!

I reckon ya tou will move about exploring the room during her first lesson. But much to my delight, she did the reverse. Sitting obediently, her eyes glued to the teacher and her actions with intrigue. She enjoyed the sing-along sessions best, swaying her body as music plays. As for those intermitent games, she became quite upset when she had to return the games to the teacher. Going on to cards flashing, I noticed she didn't really pay attention. She was looking at her classmates most of the time. Maybe she finds that one male classmate very handsome.. haha..

I shan't comment or conclude too much about today's class, afterall, it's only the first. But frankly, the activities kept me in awe throughout the time. I had a great time!

After the class, we catch a cab to West Coast Park to meet Daddy and have some sun & fun.
