Here's wishing all of you a Blessed New Year ! This is my blog for your class. Please read the postings which I hope would be useful to you. Happy bonding!

What should be in the school bag everyday

3. Pencil case with the necessary stationery (please sharpen the pencils at home. This is to prevent littering.)
4. A box of colour pencils.

Discipline - Bullying

My grandson is in Primary 1 (not in this school)
My daughter is a Parent Volunteer in that school.
She shared with me that a P4 pupil tried to commit suicide by jumping off the building. He was bullied for many years.
When I heard that, my first reaction was:
"Why is his form teacher so 'blind' & 'deaf'?

For Your Action

Dear Parent / Guardian,
I have issued this form to your child/ward.
Your help is needed to fill up this form.
The information given will help the teacher to know and understand your child/ward better and be in a better position to build bridges to strengthen the bonding.
Whatever is revealed in this form is kept strictly confidential so do answer the questions as truthfully as possible.
Please do so and return to me through your child by Friday.
Many thanks.

Unit 13: Owl Babies

Three baby owls, Sarah, Percy and Bill, wake up one night in their hole in a tree to find that their mother has gone. So they sit on a branch and wait. Darkness gathers and the owls grow anxious, wondering when their mother will return. But, at last, she does, and they bounce up and down with joy, welcoming her home.
