First Day At School 2010

[tankee]

some schools allow parents to go for 3 days, some school only allow 1 day.


some schools allocate P5 buddies from day 1, some school only from day 2.

My DS's school is the latter for both case ....

luckily he seems to be quite settled in and has adapted to the change faster than me ....

I want my baby :oops:

Well, thank your lucky stars, tankee! I know in de la selle, the parents aren’t allowed even on day1. lucky my nephew has always been independent…and pretty street smart for his age too.

P1 still baby meh...

Heh heh heh.. just kidding lar.
Our children will always be our baby.
But we dun hafta \"baby\" them so that
they can grow up more independent...
Just read how many babies told their
parents to shoo away from 1st day
onwards.

My DD1 covered her face in some of
the shots hubs took. She said, \"Stop
taking pictures of me!\" :lol:

And my other nephew in Yew Tee actually told her mum can visit during recess, but must hide and video him. :rotflmao:

This is because once the parents are in there...the children will \"manja\" and sometimes start to cry. Also, the school wants the kids to explore with the buddy and if parents come in, the buddy will have to \"靠边站\".

It would really be chaotic. Allowing parents to watch from outside the barricade is to give the parents the assurance that their children are doing fine.

I am not sure about your school, but if the canteen tables are labelled with the class, the parents can eventually spot their kids.

Same loh, the recess I also just conduct \"Supervision\" behind the barricades on my child. Strictly out of bounds to all parents.


I guess have to let go let them swim on thier own. Wonder 30 minutes where 240 go for recess enough time to quene up, buy food & eat?

My ex-colleagues and I call it 'The Fortress'!
Parents can only drop children outside the school gate. My galfriend whose dd started P1 last year, did not bother taking leave bcos of such strict rules
