Contemplating whether to introduce myself again, but decided to...so here goes:


I am a PTWM in a govt. statutory board and my daughter is in P3 this year (mainstream). She was diagnosed with mild autism when she’s 2.5 years old. Her IEP at ACC(Simei) lasted around 2 years (Sep 06 to Mar 08) and we stopped it when ACC was unable to pair her with a peer of her level (for social skills). She switched from PAP K1 to Multiple Intelligence curriculum at a fulltime childcare centre and managed to blend in with minimum issues. To—date, she has gone without any IEP or therapies since March 2008.

She’s coping well with her academics as we managed to find an EMS tutor who’s currently teaching in APSN. I had her exempted from Mother Tongue early this year as she could not master Chinese, even with the help of a tutor for the past 2 years. We decided to relieve her of the stress and let her learn at her own pace.

A couple of parents and I had initiated and setup the parent support group in my daughter’s school in mid 2010, and it was officially launched early last year, Jan 2011. Now, I am in the midst of setting up another parent support group in Bukit Panjang, with another group of like-minded parents.

Hope this intro is sufficient.

Hello baligirl,

You are a brave mummy

Your girl is very lucky to have such a caring and brave mother :hugs:

Hi all,


This is an update on the parent support group I had mentioned in my earlier post, which a couple of parents and I are initiating.

I am happy to share that we have successfully launched UNIQUE (Self-Help Group for SN Parents in Bukit Panjang).

Our 1st focus group discussion was conducted on 19 October 2012, and our 1st activity, Paper Napkin Art (Decoupage) was held on Friday - 23 November 2012 at Senja-Cashew CC.

A FB group page and email account has been set up for easy dissemination of information and facilitate sharing between parents.

Our FB group address is https://www.facebook.com/groups/unique.bp.pshg/
and all enquiries can be sent to this email address: [email protected]

Please feel free to invite parents to our FB group page, activities and events. (All NT & SN children are welcome to participate in our activities.)

We look forward to your active participation and inputs.
