MotherHen:

Thank you all RGS mummies for your warm welcome and reassuring words :grphug:


DD wants to continue with her piano and ballet classes, plus keen to take up 3rd language. I shudder to think of wat life wld be like if, on top of longer school hours, she has to go for tuition.

Will tell her to go learn, make friends and have fun. MotherHen here will simply \"jaga\" and make sure she manages her time well

her life will be full of fun and activities, one after another ( and strings of achievements to follow) ...... this will be the best time in her life, not to be repeated (you won't want too) ..... but why tuition ?

MotherHen must make sure no rooster come and disturb disturb the little chick..... :rotflmao:

No problem continuing with ballet and piano classes. Many RGS girls take music, dance, racket games and water sports lessons. Like I mentioned before, RGS girls don't just study study study. They play hard too.

I've always felt that end of primary school = end of tuition, by secondary school should be independent and study on their own. Then got regaled with all sorts of \"horror stories\" and well-meaning advice to chope tuition place. I'm like urghh.... Now, will shut my ears so will hear no evil

As for the other issue, well, MotherHen will happily grill any rooster that come disturb disturb little chick now :evil:

That's why i forbid my DD to have a FB account now, although she whines that many of her friends already have one.

Honestly tho, I think it's inevitable that she'll eventually have FB, most likely after PSLE....

Tuition isn't necessary unless the student really needs help. If you start secondary school off with tuition without even letting your child discover if it's necessary it then becomes a crutch. There are only so many hours in a day. Go enjoy the sunshine and absorb some Vitamin D rather than cooped up with tuition,

Inevitable for DD to have FB, we only allow her on FB if it[u] is project or school related.[/u] Otherwise, MUST monitor her time on FB. This is a reality, many mummies that we know from her Primary sch, all shared the same view, the gals spending too much time in FB … :hi5:

Regarding the issue of rooster/roosters disturbing our dear chicks.... My dd proudly told me the other day that she would not consider having a boyfriend until she started working. Hmm , I should have video recorded her making this statement :evil: just in case I need to use it in the future! :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:
