Daughter's P1 Orientation

11 Nov08, was the CHIJ (NOL) Primary 1 Orientation. My daughter was so excited.. about it.. We woke up early and reach the school by 8.30am.. She was later introduced to her "buddy" and a group of Primary 2 and 1 students are taking care of them for the rest of the morning.. Parents are then told to proceed to the school hall for briefing.. Along the way to the school hall... i was amazed by the so many beautiful art work around the school.. Some are drawn by students and some by teachers.. The school principle was saying that if parents could contribute some art work, it would be nice...

During the briefing by the school principle, she mention that CHIJ (NOL) is unique from the rest of the 10 branches, They are more into arts.. The students love dancing.. whereas Modern Jazz is part of the PE lesson.. (My girl is going to love it).. The school is adapting to the MOE "SEED" programme whereas more creative and innovating way of teaching are being adept.. Speech & Drama are part of their learning.. and every child will have the opportunity to be a leader.. Netball is the most popular sports in school... The school principle urge all parents to work closely with the school with one big objective "To give our child a good education". Parents are the most important "partner" to the school.... Me and my wife was so glad that our girl got into this school..

My daughter enjoys herself too, during the orientation, especially the modern jazz dance performed by the students.. They are so profession with their dance steps..

Here are some of the nice art work i have taken during the orientation day... The whole school is just like a Art Gallery..
