SBOA school and junior college, Chennai - Another Year

UKG in SBOA school and junior college, Chennai, is an extension to the LKG program.

Some of the things they did during the first term of UKG are,
-Lower case cursive writing completed
-Numbers 1 to 50 writing.
-Numbers in words up to ten.
-Writing of 2 letter words like it, on, go, etc...
-Reading of 2 and 3 letter words
-Simple story recitation and enacting.
-Rhymes and songs recitation
-Basic spoken English.
-Tamil / Hindi letters writing.

On the whole the curriculum is not too heavy nor too light, they have homework on Tuesdays, Thursday's and Fridays. Usually the homework runs to a page with 7 lines.

No exams, only observation for this year also.

Extra curricular activities are plenty.

On the whole a very interesting year for the kids, looking from how it's been so far into the first term.

Fee structure has not changed from last year.

With the September holidays approaching fast, it's just observation going on at school and no 'stressed out parent at home' here!

LKG Admissions @ SBOA School and Junior College 2012 - 2013

I'm putting my second child in SBOA this year, and the first round of admissions are in progress. My! the fees have gone up this year, but looking at the other schools, including Matric schools, SBOA has managed to keep the fees lower than the city average. The admission process was smooth and quick. We finished meeting the Principal in about 30mins from the time we got there. All that's left is, to pay the fees and start the joining formalities. I'm glad that my kid got in, as I already have another child studying in 1st Std in SBOA. She enjoys going to school. At 50 kids a class, it is a crowd but their systematic way of doing things more than makes up for it. Good luck to all those applying for admissions @ SBOA this year.

Maybe you have narrowed down SBOA School and Junoir College, Anna Nagar or it is on your list of schools to consider, either ways you would need to pick up an application first. From 2012 the applications can be downloaded online and the registration fee needs to be paid at the time of submitting the application. Usually the applications are issued by the mid of January for the current year admissions. You will have at least 2 weeks to prepare your application and submit it. The documents requested to be submitted along with the application would be The birth certificate of the child (With the name entered) An Address proof (Could be the childs passport, family ration card, gas bill in the name of the father or mother, etc...)

Pre-kindergarten Skills

So having got a seat in a good school for our 3 year old, what would the next step have to be? The practice in Chennai these days is to put the kid in pre -school or play school by the age of 2, so most have acquired skills for kindergarten already. Now what if you have chosen not to put your ward in a pre -school? (we did not send her to a pre -school).....Well you have to just rely on yourself to do the pre -KG tutoring . The basic skills they are going to need would be Adequately toilet trained and need to indicate in advance Can speak clearly for the classmates and the teacher can understand ( at least in the native language) Can listen to and follow instructions Know some basic manners, like please and thank you An enthusiasm to learn new things So I guess most kids would have mastered at least 4 out of the 5 points above. Apart from these other skills that your ward could use are alphabet recognition Number recognition Basic Colours and Shapes Using the c
