Happy Mama:

All the best to the kids going for their Little Professor competition tomorrow. :rahrah: :rahrah:

Oh, mine going today, his group selected to do a presentation, so these few days need to stay up late to prepare, so don't have much time to prepare for his HCL test tomorrow.

from the start of sch term this yr, dd brought at least 5 forms (may be more, i can’t remember) from the sch to participant in various enrichment/competition… i didn’t sign up a single one… if i do she may not even have time to sleep…

Dd classmate died last Tues, brain tumor. I cried. Dd cried a little. Most of her classmates, present and former, also cried. Even the teachers cried.

We went to her wake. Her mom was so strong, encouraging the girls to cherish the people close to them, to be strong and remember the good times they spent together. Her mom told us to be brave, as her daughter had been, as death is not an end, but part of a journey to a better place.

I teared on seeing this... it is always heart-wrenching to have 白发人送黑发人。。。 & the child is so young...

My deepest condolences to the family... The mother is so brave & positive...

You are right, we must love & treasure our kiddos - always, at all times, through all times.

So sorry to hear this. News like that always makes me re-examine my priorities in life (esp wrt the children's), not to sweat the small stuff and to value & spend time with the people who are dear to me.

Now I'm glad dd does not go for any tuition, no supplementary lessons in the afternoons, just dance which she enjoys anyway. I'm glad she has time to enjoy the last two years of childhood.

What a brave mum! I'm sadden by such news, although I don't know them :sad:

Want to check, how long is your kids english paper two? Mine was 1hour 50min. My boyskipped his nap on monday to watch tv and resulting in 7hours sleep that day. He said the last ten min of the paper, he felt mental fatigue.

I thought he learnt his lesson, but I still have to nag him last night to stop revision by 9pm but he wanted to do a bit more and went to bed past 1030pm again. Today math paper was 50min plus 1hour 40min. Hope he kept an alertMind.

I believe the duration of each paper should be the same.
