Schooling

Schooling - Part 2

Next in a new city far away from country we took the obvious choice.

Let’s continue Indian education for our kids …great they would be taught like the way we were taught in a metropolitan city with a great infrastructure!

But all other priorities changed…

• School happened to be reasonably close but if it had been far and offered bus services we would have chosen. She was 5 then and comfortably takes the school bus. In fact to date one of her bus mates is her best friend.

• It was a school which followed Hinduism as an ideology ….and children had to learn Slokas and Sanskrit….but we had no choice in a foreign country you can’t choose from many schools with CBSE syllabus. You at that time had literally one school or you can choose curriculums from other countries like (American, British. Canadian, Australian etc.) But of course you try to expose her to Christian Education on Sundays and religiously went to Church as a family on Sundays where they would have Sunday school for Children.( Note we never bothered about it when she went to a Christian School).
• An upcoming school – yes this was so the choice was easy in this aspect…

So ultimately it weighed on what was available and what is the price one has to pay than the priorities one started looking for a school. So all in all she went for 24 months and I still believe a great foundation was laid with a lot of hard work from our side at this stage…
