Solomon seemed to enjoy school, it's activities and surroundings. For the first week, he enjoyed playing with the many toys and singing along with the teachers. He especially loved water play! He would however cry if he realised Sidekick and I were missing! Sidekick still follows him to school and leaves the room when he seems more settled.
Last week was Hari Raya holidays. Solomon's school had classes as usual but he did not attend, as his sisters were all on a whole week of school break.
This week, after the break, he does not seem as keen about school as before. Perhaps the novelty has worn off and he prefers the comfort of home to the new surroundings. This morning he totally refused to wear his school uniform so I just let him go in normal clothes. Sidekick reports that there are a few new students who keep crying and that makes Solomon want to cry as well! Also, one of them is a naughty girl who disturbs Solomon and his school bag and he being timid will just whine to Sidekick! I do think this is his first school bullying!! :)
Today he refused to join the other kids as they sat on the floor playing. He preferred to sit at his desk with all his belongings (bag and bottle) on the table and his arms protectively around them! :)
I do hope he learns to love school soon!
