Let’s get geared up for a few updates of interesting happenings! The week before last, the whole lot of pre- primary green thumbs, paid a visit to a nursery in Padappai. As they entered the green world, only ‘ooohhs’ and ‘aaahhs’ broke the silence. On account of Independence Day celebrations, they all made beautiful tricolour paper flowers – on their own! Currently diving ‘Under the sea’, I can see our pre-primary juniors bringing lots of colourful posters and stuffed animal models to brighten up their classrooms. Two weeks back, four fishes (brought to school by a pp-1 child) gave birth to small fry . It was a wonderful sight to see small fry swimming around each other.
Last but not the least, we have our pre-schoolers learning about farm animals. As I walked into their classroom last Thursday, I could see a wall collage with activities done by our one and only Zoe! In the other corner of the classroom, lay a small miniature farm. ‘I barely helped them. They made it all by themselves!’ said the class teacher, Devaki aunty. Apart from this, I think you should all know that BMIS has adopted a baby turtle! All the students are in a frenzy trying to name it! And I almost forgot (silly Me)! We have a small lily pond behind Ashok uncle’s room that brightens up the entrance of my school.
