Dealing with parents these days is not easy. I salute teachers, principals, and all other academic and administrative staff who have to interact with parents.
And so, a mother of Nadya's classmate lodged a complaint with the principal and vehemently objected to their K2 class next year being called "Dependable Dingo". She shared with us her text to the principal and I thought her tone wasn't nice....It went something along the lines of "You're calling our children dogs??? Excuse me?!!"
Cutting the long story short, some of the other parents didn't like the name of the class as well (though they didn't voice it out to the principal). We ended up spending close to 2 hours having a virtual conference on Whatsapp brainstorming of better names....
We had Tenacious T-Rex, Loyal Lions, Determined Deer, Diligent Deer, Resilient Rhino.....
And then...K had a spark of brilliance....after googling....he came up with
Legendary Lions.
It wowed the socks off the rest of the parents lol. A father said "That's nice. They enter as infants but leave the school as legends!" And so the name was proposed to the principal, who liked the name too....
I met the principal this morning. She told me that the name was finalised and the kids would be informed today....:)
Her comment to me was "The name has alot of 霸气!"
I think so too...:) Fierce enough hahaha....
