Term 2 in UKG

By Categories: 
This has been an eventful term, with loads of extracurricular activities and competitions.

They had their annual exhibition "Connoisseur 2010" and it was a real treat, the amount of work that had gone into it was tremendous, the themes were varied from airports to circus to music.

The kids had a great time putting the whole thing together. though parents did most of the work for the junior sections the presentations were done by the kids.

This term has seen a lot more writing and reading skills being encouraged, as well as basic calculations in Math. They have a very organized way of handing out homework so we always know what to expect when.

The observation would start by the first week of December. And looking forward to the Holidays!

The biggest drawback is that all the operators use Mahindra vans(The green boxy ones) and they are not very comfortable. Swaraj Mazda or even a tempo traveller would be nice, but I guess only if a big group of parents go out of their way to find one, the situat...
