On 7th April JACK AND JILL, the pre-primary school celebrated school reopening day of new academic year 2015-16 in its spectacular magnitude. The day a child begins official schooling for the first time is one of the milestones of parenting that parents will cherish for a lifetime. The great morning of brimming enthusiasm along with the support of all our teachers and support staff the reopening started smoothly as the tiny tots started stepping into their school. The thought of going to school can be exciting or stressful for four-year-olds and their parents. Keeping this in mind teachers aspired to make the first day of our children happy and special. Jack and Jill organized a special assembly. Our principal Mrs. Rathi Ravindran presented a nursery rhyme. Our teachers at JACK AND JILL welcomed kids with an animal song which even gave a small message to the children that they should love each other. It gave children a positive start, and they all were cheered to see all the teachers with the animal mask singing and dancing for them. All our teachers interacted with children as animal characters, and were happy to settle down in their classes.Hats off to this icebreaking session. The very next week was we celebrated as the “colour week” for the children.
Colours are part of our life. Nature is full of colours and it wears the colours of spirit. This celebration week at kindergarten enhanced the spirit of learning in our children, and also made them feel comfortable at their new environment. We started our week with RED the colour of love with our children dressed in red and participating in various activities. We had great fun celebrating yellow colour day, and the little ones enjoyed their day to the fullest. Yellow colour was introduced in the classes using yellow things from the environment. This was followed by blue colour day. Focusing on the theme teachers planned art and collage activities. Their art work was displayed on the soft boards. Recognition of blue colour was done with the help of blue colour objects. Then came our GREEN CLOUR DAY on a fun new perspective and to explore the colour of the season with children. Students and staff came dressed in rainbow colours ready to further inspire and celebrate the events of the day. Children enjoyed these activities for the week, and were happy to learn.
