Christmas bells are ringing

It's the end of the year

In this December of love and joy

Let's take a look at

What's going on at the kindergarten!

Parents Observation Week

At the beginning of December, we held the second Parents' Observation Week this year. Parents were invited to come to their children's classrooms to observe their children's learning and life in the kindergarten. They wrote down their feedback to help the teachers better adjust their teaching to the children's growth.

Parents from Pudong Campus also visited the children's rhythm class and English class. Our children showed themselves positively and generously in front of their moms and dads. You are all the best!

Daily Life

On a sunny day, the children from the Red and Pink Group of the Mandarine City Campus went to the terrace on the roof of the house to play ball games together. The colorful cloth and balls were good training for children's color perception, and everyone had a great time with their best friends.

The  Blue Group learned vocabulary related to recycling and garbage classification in their English class. We believe they will be able to use this practical knowledge in their daily life in the future.

In the PE class at Pudong Campus, the teacher was leading the children to do stretching preparatory activities, and the children followed the PE instructor attentively to warm up. Afterwards, they ran indoors around the markers and did a variety of jumping activities.

Christmas Art

This month's craft theme was undoubtedly Christmas! Children of different age groups created their own Christmas crafts based on festive elements such as Christmas trees, Christmas wreaths, snowmen and Santa Claus. The kindergarten was filled with the Christmas spirit as the artwork was decorated on the walls.

The children of Pudong Campus used their own little handprints to work together to create a Christmas tree painting, and then used colorful paints to decorate the tree with little lights.

Christmas Party

It was finally the long awaited Christmas party! Teachers, parents and children from the International Department gathered together to celebrate this wonderful time of the year. The children from each age group performed Christmas songs and dances to bring the festival atmosphere to a climax.

We also have prepared a fun Christmas song guessing session for moms and dads, and the prizes are Christmas crafts handmade by the teachers of the International Department. This time the children cheered for their moms and dads and saw who could guess more song names.

The big man that the children have been waiting for is about to make his debut! Santa Claus came to the concert hall of our kindergarten! The children were curious to ask Santa questions and were delighted with his gifts. At the end of the day, everyone took a picture with him to record the wonderful Christmas time in 2023.

The Christmas carols and dances at Pudong Campus were equally wonderful! The children in the red and pink groups put on Christmas hats and cute Christmas tree costumes and gave a cheerful performance. The blue and yellow groups put on Christmas gift boxes and performed beautiful songs for everyone.

Jingle Bells! Santa Claus also came to Pudong Campus! The children greeted Santa warmly and received Christmas gifts from the Arctic Circle. At the end of the day, everyone got together and took a nice Christmas photo.
