It was a nice touch when each pupil was presented with a CD-Rom on the last day of school. The CD-Rom contains 267 images of all the key activities that they did the whole year. It is like a year-book. Smart marketing?!
Anyway, I did some collages of the photos (see below). Enjoy!

I am quite happy with what the kindergarten has achieved this past year. In my own reading of childhood education, I have come across this metaphor of the "beacon". According to Margaret Mahler, renowned child psychoanalyst, a beacon signifies a fixed light which gives the child the security to move out safely to explore the world and then return safely to harbour. In this aspect, I think Beaconhouse Pre-School has done fairly well in promoting learning through play and exploration and in building self-confidence in children.
Au Revoir, 2008!

I particularly like the shot where he cups his face in rapt attention under 5) Learning about Growth.
