Happy Deepavali










The festival of lights! The children dressed up for in traditional Indian costumes, ate different types of 'Muruku', Coconut Candy, and had lunch on Banana Leaf! They made a 'Kolam' (form of sandpainting using coloured rice), Greeting Cards and for their cooking project, we thought them how to make Adhirasam (a sweet snack) It turned out very well.








Happy Deepavali!! :)

The WorkGroup Class children made little boats out of sponge, straw, felt and glitter. Idea from a DK craft book. They had tons of fun and so they made Yellow Submarines the following week. We decided to bring out the baby bath tub and let them have a some water play fun. :) Splish! Splash!!

Mid-Autumm Festival

Also known as the Lantern festival. The children made lanterns and moon-cakes. They were so excited as the moon-cakes turned out well. We sold some at the Coffee Shop opposite the school. :)

Hari Raya

*yummy*
We recently celebrated Hari Raya with the children at school. They dressed up in traditional Malay costumes and ate traditional Malay dishes. Some of them could even sing the 'Selamat Hari Raya' song.

School Trip to Aquaria KLCC

We had learned about sea creatures for the whole month of August and it was a real good experience for the children to visit the Aquaria and finaly see the sea creatures in their habitat. An unforgetable experience. They are still taking about their trip.

International Day

International Day. A day to get together and celebrate our different cultures. Everyone came dresses in their traditional costumes and all the moms brought a traditional dish to share with each other while the children put on a show for the parents. They performed traditional dances and the girls even did a hula dance. They looked so adorable.

Arts and crafts

Arts & crafts is one of their favorite activities. Messing around with glue, paint & glitter. They couldn't ask for more!
