Estéema:

I shared with DH, if I can teach these kids and hold regular sessions to help their parents take note of areas to support kids, that will sink well with my soul. Btw, I picked this idea up fr Mr Tseng of Academia. It was in one of his parent talk that I made decision that he cld do a better job at a level where I cld not reach for my kids.

both yourself and hubby are really very generous people. many parents are stressed when their kids take psle and don't know where and how to start.

Ya. We went thro and feel it's tough enuf for our own kids to navigate Spore edn system. Add on with the growing up years, kids hv to grable with parents' expectations & may not cooperate as well. For example, we knew DC had always had good brains for numbers & been doing well since P2. Just that he'll question no end why we need to do modeling or show workings. I sweat like mad, in the end sent for TLL just to keep up with practices. Looking back, shld've saved the :moneyflies: and let him be.

Latchkey kids hv little help fr parents, esp when parents hv to struggle to etch a living. Edn will uplift them abit more and if I am able, I shld. Hope my energy keeps up with DH. Closing 60s

We bought our uniforms yesterday but sec 1 textbooks will only arrive on 21st Dec. The bookshop staff gave me a :roll: look, asking me why I don’t come on 22Dec, Orientation day. :razz:

have you thought of getting some of the books from popular? whatever is not available get from school.
we haven't bought textbooks for daughter yet...the past few weeks have been hectic and bookshop was opened only on certain days in november.

I don’t have the sec 1 booklist yet, so i’m not sure what to get...[/quote]
Any chance get fr seniors or enquire fr school for booklist?

Anyway, we still have make a trip back on 22nd Dec.

OT: Do you know if for HMT in sec 1, does the kid need to stay back after school or it is covered during school hours?

yl,

looks like you have to wait till orientation day to get books.
in the meantime, your #2 is going to be sitting for psle next year…switch the focus to her.
let #1 enjoy herself, she truly deserves a good holiday.
