DSKI Community

 


"It takes a whole village to raise a child."

Our DSKI Community

After learning that they did not know most of the people in the school community, the Preschoolers took the time to go around the campus to get to know these people. 

They brought with them a very important TOOL to FIND OUT more about the roles and responsibilities of the people in the DSKI Community - QUESTIONS. 

 



They asked the TEACHERS.
"Why are you a teacher?"
"What makes you important in the school?"

They asked the PRINCIPAL.
"Why do you clean the whole school?"
"Do you like your job and why?"
"Why do you work or help the school?"



They asked the OFFICE people.
"What is your work in the office?" 

 


They asked the STUDENTS.
"What are the responsibilities of students?"


They asked the PARENTS.
"How do you help the school?"


Then we talked about the responses in class. They came up with a group of important people that make up the DSKI community.

Principal 
Office People
Support People
Parents
Teachers
Students

What is it like? 
How does it work?

FORM

They named many parts of the school such as: the playground, garden, flags, doors, stairs, roof, the building etc. 

They then connected the parts to its purpose, or...

FUNCTION
They answered the question:
What are the uses of the different parts of the school?

The students gained an understanding of the different roles and responsibilities of the members of the school community. Next week they will continue their inquiry on 'how these members work together to make the school run smoothly.'

INFORMATION COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY (ICT)
The preschoolers worked with a partner to explore the different features in SEESAW. Together they answered activities in Math using blocks and manipulative.

Night of the Student Led Conference

Preschoolers practice for their upcoming Student Led Conference (SLC) by engaging in mock sessions with peers and teachers. These practices help the students build confidence as they learn to talk about their artwork, classroom routines, and personal growth.  Using the checklist prompted by visuals like portfolios and photo displays, preschoolers explain their learning journey in simple, meaningful ways. Practicing ahead of the actual conference allows them to feel prepared and proud to share with their families.  It fosters communication skills, independence, and a strong sense of ownership over their learning — all foundational for future academic and social success. During the actual Student Led Conference, preschoolers experienced a range of emotions. Some felt nervous facing their parents, while others were visibly tired or overwhelmed by the attention.  A few needed gentle support to stay engaged. On the other hand, many confidently shared their work, explained clas...

  Have an amazing summer break to all! 

A Day with Nature

From the moment we arrived at Rokkosan Pasteur, excitement was in the air.   The weather was perfect, the animals were curious, and of course the preschoolers couldn’t wait to explore! The highlight of the day? Meeting the  kids —not the classmates, but the adorable baby goats! The students were able to  feed, pet, and even cuddle the goats, horses, sheep . They were gentle and playful. Some preschoolers were a bit hesitant at first, but by the end of the visit, everyone was laughing and eagerly reaching out to connect with the animals. But this trip was about more than just the fun experience. The goal is to extend their learning about  animal care, natural habitat, and the effect of human to other iving things.  These experiences and observing how animals interact in a natural environment were learning in its most genuine form—engaging, memorable, and will have a long-lasting impact on their lives.    As the day came to an end, tired but happy p...
