❤️ Appreciation day 2022 ❤️
“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.” – John F. Kennedy.
Practicing washing legs with peers
Children practiced washing legs with their peers to show appreciation to their parents.
They guide each other on the steps of washing legs and foot care.
Keep it up, children! The day is counting down, and let’s wait for the day!
2022 Hari Raya Open House
To let one know about a culture is to let one experience it.
The children had Hari Raya Open House in school. They dressed up in Malay traditional costumes, brought some traditional foods to share with their peers, and learned dance movements! They enjoyed it so much.
Wishing all Muslims who celebrate this festival Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!
The sight of real life in a natural forest.
“There is no description, no image in any book that can replace the sight of real trees and all the life around them in a natural forest. Something emanates from those trees which speak to the soul, something no book, no museum is capable of giving.
There must be provision for the child to have contact with nature, to understand and appreciate the order, the harmony and the beauty in nature… so that the child may better understand and participate in the marvellous things which civilisation creates.” – Maria Montessori.
A series of motives for cultural activity
“The teacher’s task is not to talk, but to prepare and arrange a series of motives for cultural activity in a special environment made for the child.” Maria Montessori
Supporting different culture in Montessori classroom
Culture is customs, beliefs and a way of life for a group of people. By introducing culture early, children are able to absorb the gist and beauty effortlessly.
