Alamak, this innocent looking thread can also turn into a \"debate\". I agree that the kids will look forward to this holiday, parents too.. I'm always hi-fiving with my kid when we see such \"unexpected\" holidays :oops: . don't take it away lah. Give the teachers a break too.

It'll be good if it is a public holiday.. so parents can spend time with the kids.. but it's not. The kids doesn't need to go to school.. but it doesn't mean the parents can keep them company.

Any P5, P6 parents here?


Are you happy that there are many school holidays like 10th Aug?

Personally I would prefer the classes to be on as usual (since it is not PH and no bonding)… rather than last minute rush due to school holidays…

How about you? if you like it, do share also… Is P5 & P6 so stressful that extra day off is good? Or will it result in more stress instead?

I stand by my point.. teachers are not ill-treated by MOE.

Of course they are not!!!

They are ill-treated by their HODs and Ps .... duh
