“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” — Lao Tzu

21 June 2025 was a big day, it was the first day back to school after the long and joyful summer holidays for our curious and energetic SAIoneers of KG II! With the sun shining bright and the gates of SAI International School welcoming them with warmth, the little ones walked in with sparkling eyes and eager hearts.

Excitement filled the air as friends reunited, some with cheerful giggles and others with slightly nervous smiles that quickly melted into laughter. The day kicked off with big warm hugs, spreading joy and comfort all around.

Our young SAIoneers enjoyed a perfect blend of play and learning. The outdoor games in the atrium and jungle gym had them running free and laughing out loud, while indoor games in the classroom kept their minds engaged and spirits high. It was a beautiful balance of gross motor and fine motor skill development—all wrapped in fun!

The academic journey resumed on a light and engaging note, as the children recapped English alphabets, numbers, and phonics with excitement and confidence. The rhythm of learning continued with delightful sessions in dance and music, where they tapped, twirled, and sang with joy.

The first day after vacation was not just about returning to school; it was about stepping back into a world of friendships, discovery, creativity, and comfort. It was a heart-warming start to yet another beautiful chapter in their learning journey.

Here’s to new beginnings, old friendships, and a joyful road ahead!
