her sa2 math is gone :roll:[/quote]Is it just a bad performance for the paper? If so, maybe can appeal to the teacher/ HOD/ principal?

I don’t think I can ever get my DC to start their engines this holiday. Even my engine has gone cold. After the exams, I finally felt the relief…no school stress, exam stress, spelling stress, assessment stress. I really felt the peace and calm.

These 2 weeks are the best I had in the year. I think for my dc too cos no need to hear me nag at them to complete their work.
I shudder at the thought of assessment books, revision, the start of a new academic year!

Yes, best to enjoy the year end holiday break n then be recharged for 2015.


Everyone - mummies n children ALL deserve a rest.

I know what you mean. I feel super relieved after SA2 because it is the final exam for the year. but I cannot let go completely...maybe towards Christmas, I will let the kids enjoy.

I know my DS2. Give him 2 days' break and he is still okay to go back to school. Give him 5 weeks without doing anything, his engine will stall for the longest time, hard to get him to do work ...and will hear him saying 'I wish it is still holiday!'

I usually have him do one piece of work a day during school holiday but read lots of books. I have also engaged a chinese tutor to get him started on 作文 during holiday, hopefully he can pick up as much as possible. Talking about 作文。。。 :slapshead:

English slight improvement from sa1, for science, she passed marginally. math gone case...prob because of section c problem sums.

Ur ds ok with such hol work? Mine, i got to negotiate hard, bcos he said every piece of work he does for me means he has less time to play and i shd not \"eat into\" his play time bcos he's supposed to rest....
Actually i give him a lot of freedom during hols, play dates, soccer dates, sleepovers, all he ask, i usu say ok, but when i 要求他做几篇作业only, he complain, complain....his tutor tell me p5 dec hol cannot let go, must let engine continue...... :nailbite:

Other than tutor going for holiday, I still want 2 hours of work done daily. But on the 4 Saturdays when tutor will be away, it is also fun time for them...and for me :evil:
