It’s school time! After a long vacation getting back to the routine of sending and picking kids up from school can be taxing. So your friends at Camella Dumaguete share a few tips to make back to school season easier.
Prepare school things the night before. Before sleeping, set aside all things needed for school: uniform, underwear, socks, shoes, bags with books, notebooks, pens, pencils, lunch, snacks, drinks, etc. Place them in special designated areas so you won’t run around looking for them in the morning.
Plot your week’s schedule. Put in your diary time of sending and time of pick-up from school and work around those schedules. Don’t set appointments that conflict with time for picking kids up from school or at least delegate ahead if conflicts cant be prevented.
Review homework regularly. Take 20 to 30 minutes everyday as study time for your kids. Guide them at first but later on, if you are consistent, they learn to study on their own.
Nurture a sense of belongingness. Make sure the house feels like home that your kids love going home to. Prepare welcome home snacks or drinks and keep the house clean and pleasant to stay in.
It is also best you stay in a lovely neighborhood that makes your kids feel like they really belong. Camella Dumaguete is a picturesque community at Panlipinon Road Dumaguete City that is dotted with Carribean pine trees, lush gardens, pocket parks and meditation ponds set against a magnificent view of the Negros Oriental Twin Peaks or Cuernos de Negros — a majestic mountain range. It has a grandiose gate with CCTV security system, jogging trails; basketball court, children’s playground and Pavilion — truly a place in which you can proudly say you belong.
Camella Dumaguete is a part of Vista Land & Lifescapes Inc., which has built over 250,000 houses with presence in mega manila and 28 key provincial areas, 56 cities and municipalities.
