Wow! Where did the summer go? Seems like yesterday we were putting away our children's school uniforms and backpacks and trading them in for flip flops and bathing suits! Our children's clothing may have changed for the season, but did they? Did they learn anything new over the summer? Did they retain what they learned from the previous year?
This month's blog quote is a Chinese Proverb: "Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere."
Everywhere?
Yep, everywhere.
Three cheers for LEARNING!
Hip, Hip, How reassuring!
Hip, Hip, How wonderful!
Hip, Hip, How important!
Yes, it's reassuring to know our children have learned and will continue to learn; and yes, it's wonderful to know whatever they learn, it will follow them all their lives; but, it's most important to know what an awesome responsibility and privilege it is to help them learn, and learn the right things. That's why we chose for our children to attend WMPCS isn't it?
Let's remind ourselves what it is about WMPCS which enables our children to learn. The school's webpage says it best:
WMPCS is a place where students develop...
L ife lessons
E xperimental learning
A cademic excellence
R espect
N ature lessons
I nternational studies
N urturing
G race and courtesy
So, parents, gladly put away those flip flops and bathing suits, dress your children in those school uniforms and help them sling those backpacks, 'cause they're off to...
WMPCS -- A Learning Place -- A TREASURE to follow your children everywhere!
