Time really flies.. my little boy is in P1 now... it's kind of hard to believe that. In 2006, when Fiona was barely 6 mths, we were frantically looking for a flat within 1km of CHS... thank God he was chosen in the ballot & I guess the rest is history.
Aaron is in 1 Charity or 1A, with Mrs Karen Lee as his form teacher. Mrs Lee is a bubbly and interesting teacher who teaches Maths and English.
First week of school is more or less orientation. No homework, just getting to know friends, teachers etc. The school had a buddy system where they have a P5 boy to guide the P1s during recess. His buddy was called Bryan. Aaron was so excited that he was able to buy things with the pocket money we gave him. I was around during the first 3 days - Aaron would buy Milo, Pizza and sometimes sandwich. After food, he would go down to the bookshop area - there is a piano there... we noticed he enjoyed playing Turkish March and Fur Elise on that piano with a few other older kids. Routine wise, we got to get him to get up at 6am to catch the schoolbus at 640am. After school, it's an afternoon for revision, reading and assessment books.. it's kind of hard to sink a playful child into a routine of revising school work, doing homework. That's just the beginning of his many years of school life. Study hard Aaron!
