On August 3-6, 2020, we officially commenced the reading test which was attended by students from Nursery until Kinder 2 level. In PIK – Center, the test was spearheaded by the Principal, Ms Amelia E. Manarang together with the Head Teachers : Ms Creselle and Ms Vera. This time they served as the examiners. These students from these levels were very excited to showcase their prowess in reading. The titles of the books are the following: ‘The cat’ for Nursery level, Kindergarten 1 – ‘Tick Tock’ and for Kindergarten 2 – ‘Thank You’. The test was done via the upgraded Zoom Educational Link from our school.

In addition to this, other branches of our school did a similar test with the supervision of the respective Principals. They are Ms. Dewi from Citra 6 branch and Ms. Rindang from Green Lake. Similar with the Center, they also give the test from Nursery to all Kindergarten 1 and 2. The students did their very best as well!

This test will be done almost every month to check the students’ development in reading. The students are able to adjust with regards to reading online and even teachers were challenged to be efficient and effective. With this, our students are encouraged to incorporate themselves at this point as they improve their skills.

The involvement and support of the parents are highly appreciated and commended. Indeed they are the partners of the teachers in the learning process especially during the Home-Based learning.

Regarding this, young ones can engage themselves into new things. They are definitely explorative with regards to learning.

PTM (Parents Teachers Meeting) is an event that allows us to introduce our teachers, and to inform parents about school programs for the current year. This PTM was the first virtual PTM that we ever held. The PTM was held on July 17 2020. We received such a great enthusiasm from parents, and higher number of attendance this year.

We have a question and answer sessions to let parents communicate their concerns, their questions, and to clarify unclear information. In this part, we received many constructive input from parents regarding learning activities at home.

Our focus on this PTM is how to construct a better, and more organized communication flow between parents and school. In this case, our class teachers has a very important role of communicating information from parents to school and the other way around.

Our great expectation is that with this PTM, we can ease parents’ concern and build a stronger cooperation with parents; all to support the continuous improvement of the education for our students.

See you at the second PTM!
