Along with all the public schools, Charterhouse Preparatory School opened its doors for its new Grade 1 boys and girls on Wednesday, 9 January.
This year, Charterhouse had to expand its Grade 1 capacity, with the school adding another class to the existing five, bringing the school’s total number of Grade 1 classes to six. The school has also dedicated an entire block of classrooms to the Grade 1s, along with a couple of the Grade 2 classes.
As per usual though, the little ones were sorted into their respective classes prior to arriving at the school, so mom and dad knew exactly where to take their precious ones. A couple of little angels naturally didn’t want to leave their parents’ side, but there were also a lot of brave faces who seemed ready to tackle the challenge that is the ‘big school’.
