First day at NAFA Arts Kindergarten

Today is Faith's first day in NAFA kindergarten. Faith is very excited and has been asking everyday since last Thursday orientation when she will going Arts School.

I am glad to accompany her to school since I wasn't allow to go in with her when she attended Brighton Montessori. Day 1 lesson is a short one. It is just 2 hours instead of the usual 4 hours. Afternoon students have their lesson from 11am to 1pm instead of 1pm to 5pm.

Although parents are allowed to go into classroom, but when lesson starts all parents are waited outside. We could peek through the flipping glass window and see what are the kids are doing. They did Chinese singing songs, snack time, outdoor play and coloring. I don't know what they did for English. Maybe I missed out this.

It is great to meet some Faith's classmates' parents and make friend instantly and we exchanged no. to keep in touch. Just that we wonder should we continue with NAFA. Few of us felt that the English teacher is not good enough and kinda of worry the influence she will give our kids. One mummy has complained and hope we could see some actions from the School on this matter very soon. As for us, we just given up to this Friday to get back Brighton whether to continue or not.

This month is going to be a crazy month for Faith and me. Many changes in our daily life. This month, I got to train her to :
1. sleep earlier and cut away afternoon nap.
2. And also take cereal or bread for breakfast since we don't have time to get noodles from coffeeshop.
