The temperatures have dropped drastically, autumn leaves have fallen, and everyone is bundling up under layers and layers of clothes…

You know what that means: Winter is here!

December is now in full swing. We have welcomed in Christmas cheer early this year as we started practicing songs and English lines for our Christmas show on the 10th. The school also has been looking extra festive with our indoor and outdoor decorations.

Another way we have been welcoming in the winter season has been planting and growing some new tulip bulbs in our garden.

Tulips are a special winter flower. If you plant the bulbs in the soil in the colder seasons, they will be fully ready and bloomed in the springtime. Now is the perfect time to start growing these tulips!

Last but certainly not least, preschool kids came to the kindergarten for song practice leading up to our Christmas show.

For the concert part of our show, the preschool had a bunch of their own songs to perform, and so did the kindergarten. Both schools also shared a performance of “Santa Claus is Coming to Town” in between our class performances.

It’s been a great start to the winter months so far. We are excited for our last few days before Christmas break!
