My son has been informed that he has to be in school for the Monday and Tuesday this march holidays.


Is this norm in other schools?

Yes this very normal. If no sup classes during holidays thats ABNORMAL.More to come during June hols.

[quote=\"Tinkerbelle\"]Hi wkong,


Fancy seeing you on this thread too... So you've got a P6 & a p2....just like me. :hi5:

Yeah.. when the younger one taking PSLE, the elder one is taking O level.. :!: :!:

I will try out one of the KS parents suggestion on getting the kids to read out loud and also get him to practice his oral skill.

I will face this similar scenario too...PSLE and O levels. Give me a 5.[/quote]Yeah.. at least I am not alone. Let's give one another encouragement during that period.

For PSLE, parents still need to be involved since kids are just 11/12 years old. But for O levels, they should be mature to think...for A levels, they are definitely very mature to know what they want.

Hi mum1113,
Fantastic that your DS is inspired to read Chinese books once again. I tried to get DD to read 笑猫日记 but she's not interested.....hiazz. What simpler CL books is your DS reading? Maybe I can see if I can perform a miracle with my DD & get her to read a Chinese book...keke. Tks

The books too simplistic to talk here liao....paiseh paiseh :oops: :oops: let's PM...

[Mum1113]

thanks Tinkerbelle. Thanks for your reminder.... Oral coming in April :slapshead: ....
dont' think of actual one first Brenda10....1 at a time

[Mum1113]

Brenda10:

Yes. Agree this is very tedious. The more I can do is expose dd to more CL song and hopefully she can remember the lyrics.

So mummy and daughter can \"Da Shen Gao Chang\" as the saying goes, practise makes perfect right :love:

Yeah, I'm quite happy that all major tasks are out of the way now. But I think ds2 would be quite unhappy that I am mostly focussing on him. He seems rather \"free\" now despite being in p6!
