Happey Valley Bilingual Kndergarten Shanghai

by Ida Khoo @ Jwo Yi’s mummy
One happy thing moving to Shanghai is that you go to school half day. I'll take you home at 11:25 to have lunch and afternoon nap. Then if you have class in the afternoon I'll take you to school again and pick you up again at 4:25.

When you first started school it's only half day. No extra class in the afternoon. You were in "xiao pan". You come back home and take lunch and afternoon nap. After that you'll do you writing and numbers. After few months your teacher ask if you'll like to learn drawing, mandarin and dancing. You said you want drawing and mandarin only and not dancing because dancing is taught by other class  teacher. Then after few weeks you change your mind again you want to learn dancing as well. I'm okay with whatever decision you make. So end up I have to take you to school every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon for all that class.

The school in Shanghai start every new year semester in September. So now you are in "Zhong Pan". And your English class is also change to afternoon. This new year semester your school also offer piano lesson and you said you want to learn. So end up we have to reach your school very early in the morning. We have to be there by 8:00am for your piano lesson. You have your piano lesson everyday. It's good. I'm happy. You are happy.
