4th week in school (22 – 26 Mar 10)

Charlie don’t seems to be adapting to her 3 hrs nursery. First she fell sick, and then she refused to drink milk in the morning, now she sobs and cries refusing to go in. Her teacher told me that she refused to mingle with her friends and do her worksheet in classroom. She refused to sit with her classmates and will just sit at a corner alone and cry. She will whine and cry intermediately for the whole 3 hrs. The worse is she refused to tell us why she is unhappy. She could not pin point to any incident or unpleasant experience which is bothering her.

As Charlie is more vocal and has an outgoing personality. I don’t think she will be bullied or intimidated by her classmates. Moreover kids at 3 years plus will not gang up together to isolate newcomer. I suspect she is not settling well in a routine schedule with limited flexibility. Unlike at home, she gets to do what she wants and bargain for more. Even if I am right, I’m still having problem getting her to mix with her classmates. Let see if who will win this battle (or rather who surrender first).

ps : on the other hand, yy does not give me any problem blending into different environment from childcare, preschool at PCF then Kidszone and the latest ie primary school education.
