The Little House (Montessori)
Welcome back to The Little House (Montessori).
We embark on the theme of Ocean this term. Over a 2 week cycle through the term, your children will take home activities that are related to the theme. We endeavour to make each activity age appropriate.
There will be no school on the following dates:
Friday 29th March (Good Friday)
Wednesday 10th April (Hari Raya Puasa)
Wednesday 1st May (Labour Day)
Tuesday 21st, Thursday 23rd, and Friday 24th May (Teacher Parent Conferences)
Wednesday 22nd May (Vesak Day)
The 20th of May, Monday, will be the last day of school for children this term. The dismissal and bus schedule will be as per usual. It will not be a half day.
There are excursions scheduled on the following dates:
· Wednesday 3rd April (Qian Hu Fish Farm - Go Green with Frogs)
· Wednesday 24th April (Bollywood Farms - Sensory Farm Tour)
· Wednesday 15th May (Nippon Koi Farm - Aquaponics Tour)
There will be no morning session on those dates. Children who are not signed up for the excursion can be sent to school at 12 noon, after we have returned from the trip, if they are signed up for the extended day. Please be reminded that children who have not had the Term 2 Sign Ups Google Form filled have not been signed up for the excursions.
A gentle reminder that "Show and Tell" is conducted by level and over several days. This will allow for better time management and greater period for discourse.
Mondays – N2ers (born 2020)
Tuesdays - K1ers (born 2019)
Wednesdays - K2ers (born 2018)
Please help your child pick an item to show. Due to time constraints, each child can only show and chat about one object. Show and Tell for N1ers will commence in the later half of the year.
A reminder that every child should come into school with a spare change of clothes every day.
Music and movement is held every Friday for N2ers, N1ers and PGers. Races will be on Fridays for K2ers and K1ers. We would appreciate that your children are attired in shorts and tee-shirts on the specified days to facilitate movement. Dresses for girls tend to hinder.
We would also like to request that you please send your children in on time each day. Drop-off starts at 8.30am and we close the doors by 9.15am. Please drop us an email if you need to send your child in early.
For those who will be celebrating their birthday from 17th March to 23rd June, kindly send at least two photos of your child for each year of birth, with notations, a week before your child's scheduled birthday walk. More information will be relayed to you by the directresses as each directress is allotted a birthday to celebrate.
The days for the Teacher/Parent Conferences are 21st, 23rd, and 24th May. Please book a slot by using this link: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=20286047&appointmentType=15956812
Lastly but of no less importance, please ensure that the office is told of any changes in address and contact details. This is vital for cases of emergencies
Our warmest regards,
TLH
