Wonderful Time of the Year

It's the most wonderful time of the year.....

A week filled with merriment and excitement!

A time for celebration!

The preschoolers have finished the Advent Calendar and everyone was surprised to see Santa inside our room one afternoon.

He brought presents for the preschoolers!

ho ho ho ho...

They were all on the 'nice list' ,but, Ms. Faye!

"hu hu hu hu", Ms. Faye

Last day before the holidays, the students spent the morning listening, singing and dancing to different Christmas songs. They shared presents and ate treats too.

The classroom was filled with laughter and beautiful chaos.

The students had a wonderful celebration with their friends, teachers and other DSKI students.

and... of course, there will always be a POPCORN Party!

The class also set up a table for the Christmas Market. They sold the 2023 Calendar with their beautiful artworks attached to it.

Approximately 40 calendars were made by the students and almost everything was sold. The preschool class made good profit!

Because it is the season of sharing, service and love, this profit will then be donated to a 'cause'.

Thank you to all the parents and students who supported the preschoolers' works on the Christmas Market.

Enjoy watching the video of the Preschoolers' dance, "All I Want For Christmas".

and here's a holiday greeting from the Perky Preschoolers!

Field Trip

FIELD TRIP Children who experience a holistic development during their younger school years grow up to become global citizens. Taking the students out of the classroom is important because it provides a balance between indoor and outdoor activities. It prepares them for what it is like in the real world. As part of our unit on How The World Works which focuses on the science of living things, the preschoolers went out on a field trip to Rokkosan Pasture. In here, the students were immersed and had access to a different environment, the farm habitat together with the animals who live there. They experienced interactive learning by feeding and getting up close with these friendly and hungry goats. They observed how the animals shared space and played inside their homes. They were able to make connections on how they, as preschoolers socially interact with one another inside the classroom. The parents who joined the trip also became the teachers a...
