sleepy - you look like you got a good life leh... wah, your children so good, no need pushing? i have to tell my son 10 times, before he would move from doing his work on the floor to the table...

I must nag abit la. Where got so automatic one :lol:

Now school holiday so my 'good life' is on hold this week. Kids making lots of noise at home. One minute they're best friends, the next minute became arch enemies. Then they involve me in their fight & expect me to be a judge. 5 minutes later they patch up. And the cycle repeats. Come on, give me a break, I hate school holiday!

haha, yup, usually first few days of school hols I'll be very happy. No need to wake up so early, no need to stress about being late...

but yes, the noise! and the resulting messiness with all their activities... always have to bring them out too, in case my house is turned upside down.

I homeschool my oldest, and even for me, I hate the school holidays for their disruption to our timetable. DS’s fencing school would suddenly have a great many programmes and tournaments or his BB group would have outings and all these things eat into our timetable.


Besides this, my younger kids would be underfoot all day because their preschool is closed and they will get into all sorts of mischief.

School days are more ordered and we are in a better rhythm than school holidays.

My eldest is in P6 this year. I homeschooled him from P2, term 3 onwards.


I've 2 younger kids, a 5yo and a 3yo, but they both attend a preschool in the morning.

We're of the mind that we will try to give our kids the option of whatever 'schooling' is the best fit for their temperment and learning style.

Wow, homeschool. I really salute you.
Both my kids didn't attend pre-nursery but they went to Nursery and honestly I enjoyed the 3 hours of peace.

[Kabby]

P6 already! so he'll be sitting for the PSLE this yr!


What curriculum do you use for him? I have a couple of hmsch friends, so just curious.

Do you join the Spore homesch group too?

After P6, do you still plan to hmsch for him?

I know of a mom who still hmsch aft P6 but most send their hmsch pr kids on to public sec schs.

Not easy not easy, really salute!
