Today was Sera's first day of school!!
Looking super cute in her uniform!

Trying to actually do a twist here.

Gave up and gave me 'ten' instead.

=)
Sera had 4 and a half body guards to accompany her on her first day of school.
(Half being her little sister.)
LUCKY GIRL!
Watching TV.
Waiting for yeye to come home to send her.

Angel checking out Sera's Minnie Mouse shoes.

All ready!

Climbing into yeye's car.

Here she is outside her school!

Her class.
Sera was in a pretty good mood.
UNTIL....I opened the door to her classroom and loud screams, crying & wailing blasted into our faces.
Sera stopped for a moment and told me,
"Mummy! I beary scared!!"
And was quite reluctant to enter class.

Sera found a familiar face within the crowd.
=)

Sera & Velle.
After that, Sera pretty much settled down.
No tears.
And she was not clingy to me.
Extremely proud of her!
=)




Cubbies to put their bags.

After playing with the toys,
it was time to sit down and sing songs.
Sera got bored very soon and got very fidgety.
Her attention span is really very short!

They call this the
Donut train.Everyone in class has to hold on to a colored ring that is strung together.
Then they follow the teacher to where ever she leads them to.
Somehow the children are very fascinated with holding a colored ring.

After toilet time was outdoor play time!
Sera was very excited!!
And was the first to climb up the slide.






Although we do have a tricycle at home,
Sera doesn't know how to peddle and ride one properly yet.

Velle can peddle very well!

Sera's teacher teaching her to peddle.
End up she gave up.
And went to play ball instead.

Playing "basketball"

Soon Velle came to join her.

And so did her other classmates!
=)
After awhile,
Velle asked Sera to play the see-saw with her.

As you can see,
my Sera is very big compared to tiny Velle.


So Sera mainly did the hard work.
While Velle sit there and enjoy.
Shiok only!

Velle floating!
LOL!After outdoor play time,
most of the kids more or less already settled down.
Thank goodness!!
Waiting in line to wash hands.
It was lunch time!

Back to the Donut train to go back to class.

Saying grace before meal.

As you can see,
all the parents crowding around their children.

I on the other hand, left Sera to feed herself.
Wanted to see if she do so without me.
And also to promote independence.
Surprisingly, she didn't dirty herself at all.
Ate pretty fast.
And even had a 2nd bowl,
despite having a bowl of porridge before school!

On her 2nd bowl!
She usually isn't like this at home.

Very happy after a satisfying lunch.
=)



Playing by herself after lunch.


Chinese class before school ended.

A very happy Sera after school!
=)
I am really very proud of Sera.
Although she did look for me a few times in school today,
I felt that she was quite independent.
Puts my mind at ease knowing she would be able to adapt.
=)

Alvin & Sera & the chipmunks!
There is no direct bus home from her school.
So had to take a bus to Nex,
and change to another bus from the interchange.
Sera spotted the chipmunks!
So I took a photo for her while waiting for the bus.
=)
Tomorrow's day 2 in school!
Can't wait!!!
