I have a very interesting conversation with my DD this morning, \"Do you love holidays or you prefer to be in school?\" She answered, \"Well, actually I love holiday - so I can relax; wake up slightly later and do what ever I can. But I miss school and my best friends....but don't miss the whole class because the boys are very rowdy & noisy!\" :lol: Guess this is a transition period for her to adjust from the honeymooning P1 & P2 to the stressful & faster pace in P3. Nevertheless, I hope she learns and to cope well with the changes in her class & to do her best in her studies.


Last Question I \"intentionally\" asked,\" Do you think you want to transfer to another school if you have a choice?\" Guess what? She replied with a very fierce & stern look :x \"No, Mummy, I love my school; just that my class boys are noisy and rowdy. Other than that, I am \"

Cheers, I love her attitude :celebrate:

i let him carry some emergency money - for calling me or for extra books or stationery if he lost his- and sometimes his friends would borrow from him. when they forget to return him the next day, he wanted to charge them more! like, with added interest!! i had to tell him that with friends, we don't do that. we just remind them!

That's funny. He's got the mind of a businessman.

i'm glad she loves her school and loves going to school/ learning! that is the most important!

imagine how tedious and sad it would be if we had to push them forcefully up the school bus/ or drag them to school while they're crying, or worse, if they suffer from depression (apparently kids do!) or get turned off learning cos school took away the pleasure from it...

even with the added CAs and SAs in P3, she still loves school, i must say, she is totally adjusted and happy indeed!

I have stopped giving my DS money cause everytime he takes he will buy some drinks or some toy and will remain hungry... so now only home food and no money

it's ok, he will gradually learn to handle it. he just started P1, continue to teach him, he will do very well with your love and guidance!

i hope he will nt be stingy with mommy in future!

my no.2 is opposite. i guess one takes after the mom and the other the dad? it has to be learnt from somewhere right? these are not inborn, isn't it??

LKVM:

Was wondering if someone can have a post on the front page with the list of kids who are in Corp primary school..


I have noticed that either Champion or kabalevsky can do that since they have posts in the front page... what do u guys think?

Hi LKVM, though we have come to pg 37 of this forum but as far as I know ( correct me if I'm wrong),there aren't many parents with kids in CPS being active here So, I am glad to have known you & kabalevsky who are active in posting here :celebrate:

champion, i give that honor to you since your post is \"higher\" than mine. haha

you can compile those alumni too. several of them posted here as well, and gone on to do well in psle. can motivate others to come in and post and share too..

Good idea, LKVM!

[Champion]

Yes, LKVM - u are right so each one of us representing each level in CPS. I hope to have more parents actively involved so we can share & learn from one another.


My Hubby used to tease me,\"Don't ever let e teachers know or else your identity will be \"exposed\" & our DD1 will be \"targeted\"!\" :lol: Well, I believe this is a forum meant for viewing own opinions and shall not pose any form of \"threads\" to anyone posting. I have learnt many good tips from other threads and never feel that anyone is out to \"harm\" me :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Hi, any parents put their child in an after-school care? What do you think of a school-based after school care in CPS school premise?
