Beaconhouse School System KG-II, PECHS Message from the Headmistress Summers are full of excitement for the students. This is the time of the year when they wait for their results and look forward to spend time at home or go on an excursion with their families. Parents can play an effective role in utilizing this time effectively by choos- ing interesting homework activities shared on Edmodo and Mobile app . This is the high time to plan and go on adventurous trips to enjoy utmost without missing anything at school. Few suggestions that will make your trip safe and entertaining if you are planning a picnic or visiting another city/ country. Make a checklist of all-important things you need to take on this trip. Talk to the children about the place they are visiting. Point out interesting sites as you drive. Pack smartly keep a small first aid box, small water bottles, and some light snacks for the journey. Click lot of pictures with the children and maintain “scrapbook” of photos and jottings of the day that you entertained you that day will help to keep memories. Introducing kids to the trip ahead of time is especially important for first-timers if you are going to another country. Going over an outline of the trip and what will be happening can help kids understand their situation at each point in the trip. They will know what to expect next, and as a re- sult, will be more comfortable with what’s going on around them. Take this opportunity to go over your expectations for their behavior throughout the trip. Detail how they should act on planes, in hotels, and on tour. With good wishes for a marvelous vacation, Warm Regards, Tabassum Hameed Headmistress KG-II, PECHS 148-C/D, Block-2, PECHS, Karachi, Pakistan https://www.facebook.com/BeaconhouseSchoolSystemKindergartenBranchIIPECHS/
