There is no greater satisfaction than watching every child thrives in their
development. The third term has been a remarkable term. The children enjoyed
themselves very much as we went on fieldtrips and participated in centre events.
Racial Harmony Day and National Day were celebrated joyously to reflect on
Singapore’s success as a racially harmonious nation and society built on a rich
diversity of culture and heritage.
Our sincerest thanks to North View Primary School who had given our children
the opportunity to familiarise with the primary school settings. I would like to wish
the K2 children all the best in their Primary School journey and don’t forget your
friends and teachers in Kidz Meadow! Not forgetting, Chong Pang CC who
invited us for the second year to participate in an event. This time, it’s for ‘Bulan
Bahasa’.
Lastly, thank you to our Kidz Meadow Parent Support Group (PSG) who shares
the common goal of growth through learning, teamwork and perseverance. We
hope to collaborate more with our parents for the future events.
Thank you.

Selamat Hari Raya from KMY!
During our Hari Raya Celebration, we played games related
to the festival and performed dances of popular Hari Raya

Primary School! At North View Primary School, we were introduced
to the school environment and facilities. We also
experienced the ‘recess period’, where we get to
buy food with the $2 that we each brought. We are
getting excited for Primary School!

In this term, K1 children had the opportunity to learn an interesting

textured materials.
Apart from that, K1 children also had a splendid time learning about
Sports. We played basketball using the basketball ball and
