Hallie Starts Pre-School
My little rascal is growing up FAST!! At the age of 2 year and 10 months, she starts attending Playgroup lesson daily from Mon-Fri, 8-12 pm. We send both the girls to school but Hallie would take the 12 pm school bus home whereas Kyrie would stay back in school until 5 pm for her afternoon enrichment classes.
I expected some wailing and protesting from her, but she really surprised all of us. On the faithful Monday morning (17th Jan 2011), she woke up at her usual time 7-ish. I told her she’s going to school and she just kept quiet. She brushed her teeth and changed into her uniform without a single word. *Weird*
Upon reaching her class, she just walked in and put her schoolbag where she was allocated her slot and happily settled in with the rest. Just like that!! Wa!! I was so proud of her.
Today is Day 2. I left immediately after she has settled in her class. I went back around 1030 am and she was fine, following instructions and learning. Around 11:30 am, the teacher got them to put on their shoes and bag and she started crying. I was hiding in the “parent room” and I didn’t want her to see me. I knew it would make matter worse if she ever see me.
I peeped and saw her waiting for her school bus at the allocated spot in the gym. When the bus aunty came to take attendance, she started sobbing and asked for “mommy”. I told the teacher not to tell her I’m around, and I just wanted to make sure she knew which bus to board and she’s alright.
Popo called and said Hallie reached home around 12:25 pm and she has fallen asleep in the bus.
