Our Graduation’s Day
Greetings
From Our Principal
Dear parents,
Welcome to the month of June!
As we are approaching the end of this Academic Year 2014-2015. Let us looked back and
feel blessed on all the fun and wonderful activities we had participated through, starting from our Idul
Fitri and Chinese New Year celebration, Halloween and UN day celebration, Mooncake celebration, Easter
celebration, futsal, swimming, WWF,
hangout, Kartini’s celebration and Ecolettes fieldtrip to Kidzania. Wow.. we had celebrated for almost all
occasions! I am sure our students had enjoyed and broaden their knowledge
through all these activities.
At Ecole, we believes in educating each child
holistically to face the challenges of 21st century. We hope that each child
that passes through our Ecole programmes will find his/her learning experiences
fruitful and enriching.
Last but not least, I would like to thank you for your continuous support
and cooperation throughout the year. Thank you for entrusting your child with
us. We will continue to nurture our students as they grow here at Ecole

Have a
safe and blessed holiday!

TRANSITIONING INTO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Once
a child begins school, parents face letting go of the sole responsibility for
their child’s learning. For even the most actively involved parent, this can
prove easier said than done. Since early
experiences in education can have such a profound effect on how children
perceive learning itself throughout their lives, it is important to make this
time as positive as possible for both you and your child. Prior to the
transition, gain as much knowledge as you can about what goes on at your
child’s school. For a smoother transition into a new situation, such actions
like observing the classroom, getting to know future teacher(s), and
understanding one’s educational options, all help to ease anxious feelings of
anticipation.
Prior to the First Day of
School
For
most children, their early educational experiences have a profound effect on
the rest of their education. This means that positive early experience
establishes a solid foundation for learning, as well as for success in the
future. In fact, it has been found that both parents and teachers believe that
the way a child feels about their school has a major influence on a how the
child transitions into a new school environment. As a result, parents play an
essential role in encouraging their children to maintain positive beliefs
regarding school.
Transitioning into
Elementary School
Be
enthusiastic about going to school. Remind your child of all the “new and
exciting things” that they will do. To aid in preparation, ask your child’s
future teacher to tell you about some of the lessons they will be doing in the
classroom, especially during the first few weeks of school. While children may
function at different cognitive levels, in general, they recognize enthusiasm
and positivity coming from their parents. When a child transitions from home to
school for the first time, even greater emphasis and enthusiasm should be
placed on explaining what he/she may expect. The surroundings and procedures of
a school are a completely new experience, thus greater preparation and
maintaining a positive attitude is vital for parents.
Visit
the school. Take the opportunity to meet with teachers, administrators,
and other school staff, such as the nurse. This orientation helps you get know more
about the philosophy and practices that are encouraged in the new educational
setting.
Observe
your child’s future classroom and teacher(s). This gives you the chance to
witness how the teacher runs the class. Also, this can be a good time to
consider if the given classroom environment creates any accessibility issues
for your child’s specific disability.
Write
a brief statement of things you would like the teacher or school to know about
your child.
Arrange
for your child to meet his new teacher before school begins. Prior
introductions help relieve some anticipation about starting the school year
with an unfamiliar person. In addition, the teacher may also want to observe
your child in his or her current learning environment to help better prepare
future lessons to accommodate your child’s needs.
Schools in Session
The
first day has arrived. You are confident that you have done your best to
prepare yourself and your child. But what can you do now to make the transition
easier for your child?
The following
are some additional tips for the first few days or weeks of school:
· New
routines and environments can be exhausting for many children. That’s why is so
important to try to make sure that your child gets enough sleep,
especially that first week of school. Setting a consistent bedtime can help
ease the strain.
· Prepare
a healthy breakfast to help get the first days off to a good start.
Feeling hungry can be distracting, especially for very young children. They
will be able to better focus on what is going on in the classroom if their
stomachs are full.
·
Time
to say goodbye. Try to keep it brief. This can be a difficult moment for
both parents and child. Remember that your child can sense how you’re feeling,
so keep a positive and enthusiastic attitude. Also, establishing some sort of
special goodbye routine, for instance a hug and a high-five, can make the
separation far less stressful.
· As
the year progresses, attempt to maintain morning routines. Develop an
order to getting ready and leaving for school. Consistency helps a child to
adjust by increasing a child’s sense of security.
· Stay
proactive by attending parent-teacher conferences and other important
meetings. Also, make an effort to attend school activities that are open to
parents. Your involvement can make your child happy and lets the teacher know
by your actions that your child’s education is extremely important to you.
·
Stay
in contact with the teacher throughout the year to help your child prepare
for major changes or transitions that may occur at school. If possible, try to
avoid presenting any major changes at home while the child simultaneously
experiences transitions in school.
