Mooncake Festival


Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! It is also known as Mooncake Festival. In China, it is one of the important festivals next to Chinese New Year. It is a day of thanksgiving, reunion, and it is when the moon is believed to be full and bright. Last 29th of September 2017, the Little Crimsons celebrated by getting together and enjoying the activities prepared. They were all excited to win prices! 


The Little Crimsons who got the chong guan prices are Yaleena from the toddler class, Jeian from Nursery 1, Mayo from Nursery 2, and Ornan from Pre-K. All the students received prices and at the end of the day the Little Crimsons brought home a mini mooncake given by the school. It was a fun-filled day for all the Little Crimsons!!!

Earthquake and Fire Drill


Earthquake and Fire Drill
PLAN.PRACTICE.PREPARE




The Little Harvard Academy had its earthquake and fire drill last July 14th and August 1st 2017 respectively. These are done to prepare the students from any unlikely circumstances. The earthquake drill aims to teach the students what to do during a real earthquake and they need to do the drop, cover and hold procedure. After doing so, the students fall in line and walk down the stairs to vacate the school under the supervision of their teacher. The toddlers were the first to evacuate the school followed by the Nursery 1, Nursery II and Pre-Kinder, Once they are in an open area, the teacher then did a head count to make sure the little crimsons are complete and safe. The same procedures took place during the fire drill. As soon as the bell rang, the students, along with their teachers fall in line and went out to the building near the school where it is safe. After each drill, everyone went back to the school building and the teachers make sure all the kids are back in the building safe and sound.

Who Am I?

Last July 21, 2017, we had a culminating activity for our very first school theme: “Who Am I”. The Little Crimsons spent their first month of school learning all about themselves: their bodies, their names, and so much more!

The day started off with the students looking for their mini-me dolls and dressing them up in uniforms and shoes. Then we had a visit from our cardboard friend Bob, who needed our help in assembling his scattered body parts. The Little Crimsons were willing and very happy to work together to help identify his body parts and place them in the correct order. They also turned paper bags into beautiful puppet creations and had a great time playing pretend with their friends. Everyone went home full of fond memories and with lots of new friends!
