can't wait till school reopens.

Actually, kids at home also can have Me-time.. They do their stuffs, and I do mine.. 我们井水不犯河水。。 :rotflmao:

My kids know when not to disturb me, and vice versa.. Kids need their Me-time too, like we do..

I think it's the kids who are not getting me time during school holidays...coz mom have all the assessment bks ready.[/quote]No la.. I don't get the assessment books ready.. :imanangel:

I only get the Top Schools Exam Papers ready.. :yikes:

I was at IMM...saw many parents holding popular plastic bags...I guess they must have stocked up new assessment books to revise from scratch.
Ok, there will be BookFest this year :rahrah:
Have you collected the popclub magazine? There is a 20% discount for assessment books.[/quote]Oh.. I don't buy many assessment books.. Maybe 1-2 per subject, which I usually buy at the beginning of the year..

I usually use the 20% coupons to stock up on story books for Christmas & Birthday presents.. I have many nephews & nieces, and they all like to have story books as gifts..

The both of them are getting work done now...but I spot check every now and then to make sure they are on their toes :evil: Vacuumed the floor last night, so that I can revise with younger one.


With the new EL syllabus, I have to be careful buying assessment books.

Son's Chinese Paper 1 starts 23rd Sep...very early...which is just nice because he will finish before my daughter starts her written papers.

We make these mid-semester breaks 'half-holidays' as they usually have homework and revision to do. My deal with them is that they wake up at a reasonable time (7.30am) and put in at least 2-3 hrs of work, and then they can have the rest of the time to themselves. This afternoon, they are going to watch Percy Jackson, and we plan to do the tree-top walk with them one day (husband will take some time off to go with us). I'll probably go out with them another time and there's always the library! My personal time is unchanged from term time as they work independently anyway.

DH is away again. So this whole week will be me and the kids again. Before I left for work this morning, gave them some work and told them to finish up as much of their school work as possible.

Same here.

Hubs away again. DD1 has holiday supp. DD2 already finished homework and now doing her assessments. :love: I'm planning to take them out the last few days of the week to play, spend time with gramps and chillax with some movie catch-up.
