2012 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

[janet88]

I know the PSLE is getting tougher every year…this year being the dragon year kids taking it…bumper crop. Choice sec schools will not open more classes unlike P1 registration. Many friends told me the same thing, ‘PSLE is no joke, wait till next year when your son is in p6’. I have been breathless since Jan. Now, I am breathless and helpless. I feel so sad my son is stressed out.

When he does his homework now, I accompany him. At least he is not alone.

Just a curious thought, anybody sending your DD or DS for any workshop or course this september holiday??

Mummies, have you all been preparing tonics for our dragon babies in preparation for the PSLE? My good friend reminded to start giving brands as her friends have started pumping up their kids already. So I kuai kuai gave dd half a bottle of the adult version & I drank up the other half. Think I will give her only twice a week now as I am afraid it will be heaty. Have been buying the golden kiwi as she likes that. Regular soups include the potatoe carrot & chicken soup & the likes of watercress. What other soups have you all been preparing?

I plan to give him Brands nearer PSLE for him to be alert.
In the meantime, he has soup everyday...but not too rich.
Once a week, he drinks black chicken soup. His favourite is soup and rice...which is nutritious since soup has all the flavour.

It will be very near PSLE & you really can't do much by then. They can only sum up what they have learn. I intend to stop all of his tuition by end of Aug. The most important thing to do is to give a lot of encouragement to them so that they will be more confident of themselves & do their best.

Too early to give chicken essence. Prefer to wait till a week before PSLE written papers. Just give their favorite nutritious food is good enough. Having sufficient sleep is also very important.

Aside from the nutritious food, am also concered about external factors - people sneezing and coughing openly.


Yesterday while we were in a lift lobby, someone coughed openly. My DD and I dared not enter the lift with her. Then DD said,\"should I wear a mask when we go out?\"

Do I/we sound :siao:

Essence of chicken…hmm, my kids love that direct from the bottle. Even took them out of my store and drank without my knowledge!! Am afraid it’ll be too heaty so don’t dare to give too often.
