Does anyone have contact to buy the prelim papers? My sister-in-law needs it for her P6 child.

that is fast

You must have mistaken that it is for a P5 child. P6 is going to have PSLE in a month time & all of us already start counting down.

Yes, good time to take a break since all kids have no school...ie if you do not have younger ones who will be having SA2.
Really yearning to go to universal studios the next day after last paper. But my younger one still has school...unless :evil:

mummy so kiasu:

Surprise that some mummies are keen to get this year Prelim papers. Some schools only get back their Prelim results this week & the papers will probably out next week. Less than a month to PSLE & still receiving homework from school. Can find time to do? Why stress the poor kids?

We did do the Prelim papers of other schools in the Sept \"hols\" of 2011 [ bought the full suite version from Jeremy Papers]; but it is absolutely correct that you must see if doing this will help your child or merely add stress.

By this last leg of the PSLE in 2011, we were practically on our own time-table of revision. School was for DD to play and meet her friends so some days she went to school and on other days she didn't -- so we had time. All the more at this last stage, where the homework was deemed not that useful for DD, we did it after we had done our own revision material. I was more than prepared for DD to complete and hand this in after the PSLE if necessary.

DD did look somewhat tired out by this time so I sorted the Sept 2011 Prelim papers out and she did only what I felt were \"reasonable\" papers --- more for her engines to continue at their steady high hum rather than \"full steam ahead\". NYPS papers did not make this \"reasonable paper\" test and remained in their pristine state at the end of our PSLE 2011.

Mrswongtuition generously shared papers from schools not necessarily represented by Jeremy's Papers and we did some of those too.

By this time, I was just interested in keeping DD's form in shape and to \"inspire\" her somewhat flagging spirits, I stacked all the papers she had tackled into one giant mountain and told her \" You conquered this Everest - just a little more to go!\". Afterall,...

The race is not always to the swift, but to those who keep on running. ~Author unknown

I know many Mums and Dads out there would already have seen your P6 DC mature through this P6 journey. I remember that in this last leg I cried mixed tears of joy and sadness as I saw DD learn first hand that :

Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did.

Press On and Gb!
