So the school year started today, and here we go all over again. For those who are not aware of this.. Chloe is starting Grade Primary in another school this year. Last year, the teachers in her old school felt that she wasn’t ready at all. But as a mother, I felt that her teacher was new to her job .. and since she didn’t have any children or dealing with them.. she panic when Chloe didn’t seems to know as much as the other kids.. who were slightly older .. and had gone to pre-school. So last year during the December break, we pulled her out.. and put her in pre-school - with a teacher who had 28 yrs of experience… and told us on the first day of school that she was confused that Chloe’s old school didn’t think she was ready. Why..?? because she could fully understand chloe.. and chloe could print her name.. and finished all her work.. before the other kids in her pre-school class.

Because of her old school and her teachers there, Chloe had been quite traumatized and even though this year the french teacher was different.. she refuses to step into her old school - therefore we had to register her into another school near our home. But as usual.. in the morning.. she was quite worried and shed a few drops of tears.

We were allowed to go in with her.. since it was the first day.. and daddy had to help her to change her schools because she was already quite stress about leaving us. She had told us in the morning.. that she didn’t wanna go to school because she was gonna miss us.. and whine and whine of course.

So after much hugging .. and kisses.. she sat in class looking sad and all. But i’m pleased to announce that it wasn’t like last year November.. she was good.. and when we visited her.. during break time at 10.30am.. she was happy and playing. .and didn’t fuss at all. She didn’t even fuss and let us leave for work. Thank God..!!! She came home.. and said she had an overall good day - and in the evening… she told me that her new school didn’t do what her old school teachers did to her. You see .. she is definitely traumatized! We are keeping our fingers cross that this year will be a better year.
