Wan Qi at Shekinah


They were saying a choo choo train song.

Wan Qi at the Shekinah 's entrance.


Wan Qi ran to school this morning.

Today is Wan Qi's third day at Shekinah. Xihong went for the first day while I went for the second and third day. But till now haven decided if I should let Wan Qi stay on. Through out these 3 days, she didnt cry when we left the place. In fact, she never notice that we had left the place. But it seems that she doesnt like the place either. Whenever I asked her if she likes the place she will say no. Yesterday, the answer was not very certain but today she was quite certain about it.
The only reason I can think of is because the teachers might have scolded her for pushing a boy called Russell. Apparently, I wanted to tell the teacher that this boy wanted to bite Wan Qi on the thigh (ouch if he really did it will definitely be very painful. But he didnt managed to cos Wan Qi pushed him away.)yesterday but decided to hold it until end of the lesson. I am not trying to complain but rather I wanted the teacher to pay more attention to this boy towards Wan Qi cos I am afraid that Wan Qi will push him away or even hit him when he wants to bite her. She is definitely not those soft girl who would be bullied lor. I am not sure if I should be happy or not. But I am scared that she will be laballed as being violent in the end which I think was what happened today. I told the teachers about this matter and they said this Russell actually wanted to kiss Wan Qi rather than bite Wan Qi but from what I had seen yesterday is bite leh. And for some reason he always target Wan Qi, dont know if its because he knows Wan Qi is a new comer or not. Hee hee call me a paranoid mother but I cant help it leh. Cos today after school Wan Qi was terribly naughty I would say. And I wonder if it is because she thinks that she is being wronged or what.
Apparently, Shekinah's fee is $400 plus per month for 2.5 hrs everyday. I find that the teacher is quite ok or rather the English teacher is quite ok but I find the Chinese teacher quite boring. Her lessons are boring too. But what I like about Shekinah is their montessori equipment which is quite a lot. Plus I like the fact that they conduct phonics lesson once a week. So I dont know whether to send Wan Qi over or not. Haiz , I know I am a fussy mummy even my mum said so. :P
So what do you think mummies. Oh ya an another thing today then i realise Wan Qi's group is very big , consist of 10 pupils instead of the promised 6 to 8. ????????? Dont know should let Wan Qi join or not.
