Sean with Melbourne Kids

Today myself and Jerry woke up very earlier because we are planning to spend say 20mins in Melbourne Kids with Sean.What is Melbourne Kids? Yes is a new child care center new our house.We have change Sean from his previous ABC Learning Center to Melbourne Kids and today is the first day for him.

Of course we try to prepare him by telling him earlier that he will be going to a new school, where some of his friends from ABC are already there and there will be more toys to play with. It does help a little because he did show some enthusiasm of going to the new school.As we enter the school this morning, he was still quite alright till when we started talking to a teacher which she thenlead us to a room for the kids to assemble before going into their individual room, the reality hit hard on him. He realise everything is not going to be the sam anymore. He is going to be in a new environment with unfamiliar faces, he started to cry. We try to coax him with the toy car which is his favourite, but he just didnt want to play with any of them and keeps on crying. Till a kind Teacher, actually not a teacher but an assistant and cook in the childcare which is also Michelle's (the principal's mum) tries to coax him, by holding his hand showing him around the school, talking to him then he stops crying, of course me and Jerry did not follow, because if we did i think Sean will still be crying. I think she did a great job, we stayed at the foyer for another 5-10mins to see peep if everything is ok, but apparently Sean is not crying anymore.

Hopefully everything went on well for Sean and adapt well in this new school. I am prepare for few days of crying in the morning, because I know he is a person who needs warm up.Once he knows the people and environment he will be fine. But this really depends on how well the teachers in school can help the kids in adapting into new environment.

I really hope i made a right decision he changing his school, because the main reason why we choose to stay back at the area where we use to live is because at first we didnt want to change Sean's school as we think too many changes may not be good for him. But because the current ABC school in undergoing alot of changes in terms of staff and services, so we hope this new school will be better. I don't like the idea where constantly relievers are taking care of my kid which they are just here to work rather than building a relationship with my son. Most better teachers are also leaving, the new principal don't seems to be very friendly of course i do understand not everybody is born to be friendly or cheerful but since she choose to work in a childcare i think she ought to.

This new school of course at one look everything seems better taking into consideration that it is new, all the facilities still in very nice and new condition. But most importantly i hope Sean can get to learn more things there, as for this school they only group the kids in the same age together, so according to the Principal they will be engaging more activities which is within their age group. They have a qualify kinder teacher there, so i suppose more learning will be done rather than more playing like in ABC. It is definetely much more spacious. I probably will go home earlier today and see how Sean perform on his first day. I know i have been lazy since the day i knew i am pregnant till now, more i promise more updates will come soon.
