Banana Milk at Mindchamps

Wayne would be starting pre-school next week, how time flies! After months of uncertainty over which branch and month Wayne would start in, we finally got everything confirmed. Mommy of course started to get nervous as first of March drew closer, and called Miss Threez, the principal of Mindchamps at Paragon to seek some advice on how to ease the transition for Wayne.

She suggested we bring Wayne to visit the school the week before to familiarise himself with the place and even suggested we let Wayne participate in one of the sessions.. how timely that mommy and daddy had taken leave this Friday afternoon to visit Dr Lee and hence, it turned out to be an afternoon of fun for Wayne as he joined in his classmates for their gourmet session.. making Banana Milk!

Surprisingly Wayne seemed pretty comfortable the moment he entered the classroom. That's when it struck mommy that my little boy has grown up quite a bit over the months. While he used to be really timid and unsociable with other kids and unfamiliar people, Wayne is now much braver.

When he entered, he immediately asked mommy, "Wayne play too, can?" and when I asked him to ask teacher for permission he turned to Teacher Serene and asked "Can, teacher?". And quickly proceeded to find himself a chair beside the other students. Wayne participated so well in class, following the instructions the teachers gave, wearing gloves, putting bananas into the jug and pouring milk into the jug. Wayne turned to mommy each time he completed a task, face beaming with pride and excitement. It was a really good session, Wayne enjoyed himself alot, and he would nod his head each time we asked him if he wanted to go to school.

Mommy could tell how excited he was to participate.. this shot was taken just after Wayne had his turn to put the bananas into the jug. Little boy looked so pleased with himself.
