Been making DS1 do vocab exercises and came to the realization that exposure to everyday things is very important.


Eg, question ask for type of leaf pp use to wrap food? I asked him how he knew what leaf it was (banana) and he told me that it's becos pp use banana leaf for nasi lemak. DS has never had the chance to bake cookies/cake, so he had no clue that he should sift the flour (not stir) before adding in the egg.

So yes, parents, please engage your child in everyday things - it may seem mundane to us but yet this little nugget may come in use. I now know I should have to do a lot more.

Happy New Year in advance to all HWS parents (current and new and even prospective)!

Thanks for the tip. I realised that this hol. So must do something next yr. It will be one of my resolution

Wishing all a fantastic and fulfilling 2012.

Thanks hquek for the advice.


Hi simsl_sg, is it compulsory to wear only HWS jacket while in school? Can we wear our own which could be any color? OMG, if so, then i must make another trip to school to buy it already. During school term, parents are not allowed to enter the school at all times is it?

Don't think is necessary to wear school jacket. As my ds going proteach, so bought the jacket in case cold.

When we dry run in the morning my DD1 said very cold. She wore pink jacket. She's very skinny, hardly any fat on her, so bought the jacket, easier for for her to blend in, as she only has pink jackets.
