Back to school, a golden re-opening!



It was a golden re-opening after unexpected closure for few days. We had scheduled "Yellow Colour Day" on 24th August and that was the day when the school was re-opening. KITE School was decorated with various yellow colour objects. Many shades of yellow were shining and smiling right from the gate. Children started coming in yellow bright dresses but some moms just forgot about it and brought their child in neat school uniform. We could see the disappointment on their faces...

Many activities were integrated along with the theme. Every child had to participate in the activity designed for their class. More than the colour-recognisation it was the association of different things that triggered further and deeper learning. During their colouring, dabbing, sticking activities on the worksheets children were delightfully involved.




Children were encouraged to ask questions and surely kindergarten kids had many questions. We had displayed an oversized cutout of half lemon. One child argued that it looked like lemon but lemons are not of this size therefore it must be a big sweetlime. And there were kids, particularly in playgroup, who were just enjoying in their own way. Whattafun!
