Some 350 KG3 students attended the 41st kindergarten convocation of the Chung Hwa Middle School yesterday afternoon.

The guest of honour, Mr. Ang Swee Chuan, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the school, gave out the certificates to the graduating students.

School principal Mdm Kho Guik Lan congratulated the graduating students and expressed her gratitude to the teachers who have been taking care of the children and teaching them.

The teachers taught the children in a well organised environment offering a variety of play experiences and in search of innovative ideas for use in the classroom. They regularly conferred among themselves and arrived at innovative strategies for children's optimum learning, she said.

She said a large number of parents turned up to witness their children's first graduation. With the school's open door policy of involving the parents in the education of their children, the latter easily adapted to the school as their second home, she said.

Three children gave farewell speeches in English, Mandarin and Malay. A $2,711 cheque donation from the graduating classes to the school was presented by two graduates to the principal.

For the finale, every graduate sang the graduation and school songs.
