It's really quite worth while going to Sentosa this week. Lots of discounts off the attractions. I had a whirlwind expedition of Sentosa over the weekend and spent less than $300 including a 1 night stay in a hotel there (with breakfast and lunch), the Songs of the Sea, Luge and Sky ride, and Underwaterworld with dolphin show.

yes. it's a worthwhile trip if you are prepared to spend some money. People like me who go to Sentosa and don't wanna spend much, can only build sandcastles. Quite a disappointment, as I missed the days when we can cycle easily around the island without running into any construction sites, eat A&W and take the monorail around

ya it is quite worthwhile if a pair of parents were to bring along 2 kids. Not sure if 1adult only (which is me) bringing along 2 kids, will there be discount hor? :? :evil: My hubby say not free this saturday leh.... so sianz...

I also didn’t manage to bring the kids anywhere far too except shopping at Northpoint and playing at the nearly opened "water park" at SSC.


The kids had fun though. They had the water activity then followed by the painting session.

School started for a week plus. So how's everything? My goodness, the kids seems to have lots of homework given. The difference between P3 and 4 is really wide. :?

Hi siti, sorry for late reply, the reply response fm this forum don't seem to work lately? :?


ya my ds also had lot of homework leh... no more honeymoon especially their mother tongue. Used to be only hanyu pinyin but now like suddenly emphasis alot on the chinese characters already. They are not taking higher MT anyway.

tomorrow is the meeti-teacher session already,... Let's see what they have to say. Which class if your child in?

[siti]

Homework is really alot. This year her teacher seems to be moving very fast in maths and he is always telling the class that they need to rush. Actually, I don’t mind alot of homework, as long as the teacher must teach and make sure the kids understand first. But my girl is in a weak class, maybe that’s why they are always behind time and always "rushing" like chasing trains.


How is your son coping?
