66 more days to PSLE... :nailbite: :nailbite: :nailbite:

Your countdown will make parents worry...reduce their stress.
The weather is very very hot...do pump kids with water. Take some manuka for their throat.

thanks janet.... now that we are so near to P day, and that prelims are almost here, strangely, i felt kinda relieved. the feeling is like, the weight in the heart is lightening as the day draws nearer. perhaps the weight got transferred. my job is almost done, now is dd's turn.

DS down with fever, cough and cold… today is Prelim Oral!!!

have a headache from the stress…

[janet88]

don’t allow the kids to get overly stressed…if not using DSA.

the preparation towards the REAL thing is a torture…but after the whole THING is over, you will feel a big stone taken off your shoulders.

[/quote]That's good news
It means your DD is able to give you the confidence that things seems to be on track & she's doing fine
I remembered suddenly panicking near PSLE 2012 when I saw how 'bad' DS answering technique in science open-ended was. The weight lasted till PSLE was over, by then can only wait for results.

This year, DD on the other hand gave me a bit more confidence due to her 'track-records' and stronger desire. My hope is only that she doesn't get sick or panic on the actual day.

To all PSLE kids, 加油！！. Last lap liao.

thanks becontented, i really hope what i'm feeling is confidence. :xedfingers: hopefully, dd don't cause any last minute panic, or i'll :faint:

her desire to do well is even stronger now that she knows dsa isn't an option. blessing in disguise i guess. same hope here that she doesn't get sick or got 'stage fright'.

to all psle mums too, 加油！

I feel for you.. :hugs:

Bring him to GP if you don't already have standby medication at home. Just let him rest after he comes home from oral. You take care too. :hugs:

DD's oral is Friday. :xedfingers:

She JUST showed me her entry proof yesterday.
