Summer too was hectic as she revised her writing and reading skills in Hindi and Malayalam.
She did all the activities she could in a given week...
Her weeks Schedule was so hectic that it kept me on the run all the time.
Sundays began with Children's Choir as early as 8:30 followed by other Church activites till noon.
Sunday afternoons was catch up time for her Kumon sheets and sometimes even mandarin classes.Cycling around the compound was another highlight!
Monday after school began with swimming followed by piano lessons at home.
Tuesday was even more hectic Chanterelles , voice training classes and Jazz.
Wednesday..we took a breather for an hour after school practising typing at school library and then actors workshop followed by tennis lessons at ACC.

Friday: We had 2 hour art lessons where she tried chinese painting, pencil sketching and all..

Its going to be the last year with so many activities as we have to begin picking and choosing to keep up the academic standards...
