Hari Om Parents and Guardians,
Happy New Year to all of you and a warm welcome back to all our little ones. Hope everyone had a nice holiday break. It was so good to see all the kids after the break. Everyone looked enthusiastic and ready to learn more. Our morning prayer recitation was loud and cheerful. Everyone participated with enthusiasm and energy.
Since we assembled at the beginning of the new year, the students at each table were asked what they wanted to accomplish or do during the year. We had an interesting set of goals and desires for the upcoming year from our kids. Some of them are;
Learn to hoola hoop,swim and jump rope , get better at soccer, learn more about outer space, eat less junk food, play less video games, watch less television, try water coloring, learn more prayers, come to Balvihar everyday on time (love that one),learn to read, follow rules at home etc. We had such a thoughtful bunch of students.
We continued our story after recapping what we had covered before. We learned about how Maricha became a beautiful golden deer with silver spots and tried to enchant Sita. How Sita became instantly attracted to him and wanted to play with him. What happens next ? We will see in our next class.
We did our games and exercises (including hoola hooping, jump roping and swimming!) and sang and danced to our favorite bhajan. After coloring books, it was time to go home. We all enjoyed yummy kit kats today as a new year treat.
Have a good week and see you all next Sunday. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
