Thank you for sharing. Do the kids go to tuition on their own? Wldn't logistics be a problem?

Son goes to English tutor's place...the others are home tutors.

Mine will be on his own starting next year. I’m kinda of worried.


Back to the topic, how do you handle during school holiday? Back to student care?

[cowgraz]

Mar & Sep Holidays - yes, continue with Student Care

June Holidays - I usually take then on a short vacation so it’s usually 2 weeks off and then back to Student Care
Nov/Dec Holidays - Fully out of Student care until the wk before X’mas to re-start their engines. The rest of the time, it’s bumming around at granny’s place and we’d usually take a longer vacation during this time as well. This is also a time where I send them to those day camps (non-academic ones) so that they can really let loose and relax.

Thanks, cowgraz.

Anyone has kid/kids that stay at home after school on their own (unsupervised by maid, grandparents etc?)


If yes, do you install camera for their safety?

Cheers,

During the hol, I will still let them continue with tuition and let them go for non-academic activities. I will also try to clear my leave during their hol. My husband will also try to clear his leave during the hol.

My children are Pri 5 and Sec 1 so I think it is ok. The elder one will look after the younger one.
