All About Preparing For Primary One

Hi Mummies,

Thanks for your consolation.
I was dreading the thought of both of them in different sessions next year, thinking that my days of peace in the morns are over. But with them fighting over everything in the afternoon, I think the different sessions is A BLESSING IN DISGUISE.

It IS, trust me
I intentionally placed my kids in separate sessions since their preschool years so that I can have some sanity. They will be in same session when P3 & P5. That will be in year 2013 !

You know, I have 3 hours when both go to school now. On certain days, I do housework in the morning, cook simple lunch and surf net. Rather shiok to enjoy quiet and peace until 12pm. When son returns at 145pm, my quiet santuary becomes a zoo
230-4pm (nap) - both of them will be fighting over eraser, pencil, writing space...in short EVERYTHING.

So even though I have to coach daughter in the morning next year and then son in the afternoon, I think it will not be as taxing as I thought.
At least I don't have to cut myself into 2.

Hi RRMummy,

I understand son will have compulsory supplementary lessons twice a week at P5, so maybe will go IMM for a stroll.
Although tiring, I think it's better for them to be separated esp since younger one is in P1 and I can't possibly be telling her to watch TV while I attend to son.

Hi janet_lee88,

stroll is good.. IMM.. daiso comes to mind

:celebrate: to a better year ahead..
