Leanne, Brenda & Funx3,

For Sep hols, DS sch will be having some supp classes. Not sure of dates yet as waiting for notification. So probably will not go overseas. Will relax by going for meals or movie.

Emelyn,
I'll join in at the 2016 PSLE Most probably will see you at the PSLE thread by then

Hi Pen88n,

After the holiday, 16/9 (Friday) will be the PSLE listening test!!

May be they will have some practice during the holiday lesson!

Hi Brenda,

Thanks for the reminder. Just noticed that.......so better prepare some practice during hols. Life is just so hectic and busy!!!

Hi mummies,


DD said the prelim math section C is tough! Think this may be the signal to remind them of the possible tough math this coming PSLE! :roll:

[quote=\"Funx3\"]Any Daring PArents Planning for Break in the Sep Hols for your P6 kids?

:evil: :evil:

Sure. Why not? When my dd was in P6, we went off for a holiday during the September holidays with a few friends whose kids were also in P6. The few days they spent away from books and revision recharged their energy and they were ready to face PSLE when school started.

I guess different kids react differently to taking breaks after prelim. For my case, if ds goes for a holiday after during sept hols, chances are he will lose his momentum and finds it hard to pick up again for the final leg.[/quote]I guess parents know their kids best. Most important thing in the run-up to PSLE is to make sure the kids don't burn out, have enough rest and sleep well.

mine also said that the papers are tough so far...nevertheless I always tell my kids...that is how they get to learn more things.. :roll:

[jtoh]

Schools like to have difficult prelim papers to wake the kids up in case PSLE is tough. There was one school a couple of years back which set such a difficult Math prelim paper, many of the kids came out of the exam crying their eyes out. But when it came to PSLE, the kids were better able to handle the tough Math paper and calmly completed the paper, a vast contrast to their reaction during prelims. So it’s not a bad thing to have a tough prelim.

vlim, your son already has CO from RI right? He shouldn't be stressing himself out. Force him to take a break. Recharge his batteries.
