I love the fact that Tao Nan has a wide variety of CCAs. Always believe this is a motivating factor for kids, especially Boys!!

My firend's daughter is in Sailing and loving it! So committed to it that she spends at least 2 to 3 times a week just on sailing, on top of her BICEP classes, music and ballet. Then again, she's any mother's dream....committed, mature and disciplined :love:

wow ! :shock:

I wonder what is the secret to groom up such a child? nature or nurture? :?

Always tell my girlfriend she's extremely blessed and her daughter is a \"Miss Exception\", so cannot use her as benchmark when checking on Tao Nan standards, cos everything seems like a breeze to her...haha, so I check with other parents' kids too....not that I know many of them to begin with.... :lol:

About the booklist, given that the orientation is in late Nov, would the bookshops run out of text to sell? :? Any idea where to get booklist in advance? Maybe Tankee can help?
