The LKG Books have arrived!

SBOA uses a variety of publishers from Macmillan to Cordova for different subjects and all the books will be provided by the school.

For us parents it's a mad rush to finish brown papering the notebooks and binding the textbooks!

"Mummy, not the orange paper take the light brown ones, I like them better" with suggestions that sound more like ultimatums, I'm dreaming of the day that they will cover their own books!

But according to my wiser father, I might as well give up as he reminds me that he covered my books all through my school years!

Happy space creating for the new set of books!

XSEED @ SBOA School & Junior College, Chennai

SBOA is introducing the XSEED Curriculum in the 1st Standard this year. As per XSEED , this Curriculum design is led by alumni of Harvard, Cambridge, IIM, and IIT, the team of 250+ professionals consists of former principals, education experts and child psychologists with strong competencies in curriculum design, professional development and assessment.

Lunch Box Worries

If your kiddo eats as little as mine, I'm sure you are really worried about how they are going to handle their lunch at school. From yesterday I've started to put her lunch in her lunch box and make her finish it all by herself. It does take quite a bit of coaxing from my end to get her to finish it. I guess by the end of this month it should be easier for her to handle her lunch. If you are stuck with what to pack for her lunch and snack box, here are some ideas below Snacks Raisins, cashew nuts , walnuts, Peanuts, etc,. Carrot sticks, Cucumber slices, French fries Apple slices, Grapes, Banana. Bread sticks with a dip. Dark Chocolates.
