School progress - 29 Mar 2010

We constantly received emails from her teachers to inform us abt her progress in school. Below is an extract of what Teacher Jerine said:

"Here is a quick update on Evangeline's progress in school.

Evangeline is starting to enjoy school more and participates in activities enthusiastically.

As she is able to vocalise very well, she enjoys helping out her friends during lessons. Once, when we were conducting lesson on bags, we showed a child the picture of a bag and asked what it is. Evangeline noticed that her classmate was not answering and whispered to her, 'bag'. This had happened a few times, even during chinese lessons.

Also, Evangeline would say 'I pass motion' or 'I wee wee in my diapers' to inform us when she pass urine/motion."

She's been a smart and helpful gal. Good Job!!!

As of 11 Mar 2010 @ 26 mths:
Height: 85cm
Weight: 12.5kg

Healthy height & weight!

Tactical moves

Evangeline shows her first traits of tactical moves today. We sent her to school as per usual with the exception of fetching Marie to school without Michelle. Upon reaching, I told mum (in Hokkien) that I'll be carrying Marie whilst she takes care of Evangeline. I supposed Evangeline understands Hokkien and once alighted from the car, she immediately said:" Mama, you carry my bag!" After which my mum did, she said:" Mummy, carry me." She knows that I was about to carry Marie and she didn't allow me to do so out of jealousy. Therefore, she asked mama to carry her bag first and requested me to carry her. We all think that there must be some tactical thinking going on in that small little head of hers to come up with such steps and instructions for the two adults!!! Wow, this is the first time we are been instructed tactically by a small and intelligent girl!!! :)

Going to Bethesda Kindergarten - Pasir Ris

Today, Michelle told me that Bethesda Kindergarten is open for registration for 2011. Immediately, both of us went to the school to register for both Marie & Evangeline for Pre-Nursery class next year. It's only March 2010 now... yes, we know... but this is a popular school in Pasir Ris and we were afraid that there may not be a space if we register late, esp morning session.

The school is non air-con (which I like) and each class has its own room (which is good). For the little ones, only school t-shirt is required. They will have to wear their own bottoms. Cool! In fact, we are pretty satisfied with her current school - Learning Vision. However, we are not sure if Teacher Nas will continue to be her teacher next year. And Bethesda Kindergarten is nearer to home (more convenient for mum), it's only 2.5hrs session (not too stressing for Evangeline) and they have term breaks (just like primary schools).

We paid a deposit of S$222.10 to secure a space and on 27 Mar 2010, there will be an open house whereby James & Mum would attend to understand more about the school syllabus and system. By then, we would presume there will be more people enrolling into the school...

Telling the doctor and the doctor says

Today, Evangeline has got eye infection on her left eye. It looks a bit red and we decided to let her skip school and bring her to the paed. As I was working, I couldn't bring her and left the task to my mum. My mum informed that she told the dr: Dr, my eye pain. She knows how to tell where her eye is pain and etc. Her daddy says she is very smart gal. Knows how to tell dr that her eye is pain.

Dr says her eye had an infection and had to put eye lotion and take anti-biotics. Hope she recovers soon....

Beginning to enjoy school

Evangeline is beginning to enjoy school. Her Teacher Nas informed that she will sing when she is happy in school. E.g: She was at the playground (which is her fav) and she started singing "Do-Re-Mi" song and surprised her teachers. As they did not teach her this song in school. She learnt it through her mummy cos her mummy is a BIG FAN of "The Sound of Music". Even when she does art & craft in class, she started singing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".

Evangeline is a very sensible gal for a 2 year old. She appeared happy on last friday and I asked her, "R u happy?" She replied:"yes". Then she asked :"Daddy, R u Happy?" "Mummy, R u Happy" Gosh, she is smart.... Of cos, we replied her positively YES....

We are so happy to have her as our daughter... Lovely daughter.... *kiss kiss*
