SpartanMum:

The kids are under a lot of stress and Oral is not much fun actually...even for us!!!


Be extra kind to yourself and PSLE DC this week:)

as parents, we are worried for the kids' oral...after all this is the REAL PSLE oral. preparing for Oral is no fun because it's scary not knowing what kind of questions will be tested and no matter how much we prepare them, the kids' pressure and that fear of facing a total stranger on the actual day will be overwhelming.

since Saturday, I have been monitoring her diet and making her drink more water due to the hot weather.

Agree totally with Janet. The pressure is great. There’s prelims, actual PSLE oral and tons of homework to handle by these 11/12 years old kid. Not easy.


I make honey lemon drink for her to bring to school everyday to boost up the VitC. Good luck to all!

to make things worse, the teachers are piling on pressure on the kids.
daughter told me that :slapshead: now I have to be her cheerleader to reduce the pressure...will remind her to take 1 teaspoon of manuka every night.

I am concerned what kind of topics will be tested for PSLE oral. Certain topics like keeping pets, travel, musical instrument for example, kids who don't have personal experience will have problems handling.

I am sure SEAB won't have such topics too. They have to consider as much children as possible. They won't choose topics that only priviledged have access such as those you mentioned. However, some kids never take MRT or bus or don't know what a void deck or hawker centre is. That one can't blame MOE for choosing such topics.

All the best to your gal!
