2012 PSLE Discussions and Strategy

Come Aug 1, NO more fried food.


Both kids having blocked & runny nose…kept them at home to rest. Not a productive day to get any revision done for older one. Heard some schools starting prelims SOON.

Younger kids need lot of motivation from school & parents. As they grow older, it will depend on the sec school they go to & the type of friends they mix with. A teacher from RI recently told me that RI students are self motivated. The teachers don’t have to teach much in such competitive environment. Teaching in top schools is more relax than teaching in neighborhood schools.

Boy's oral on 23/24 July. Written papers 22/8 onwards (I think). Only remember dates for PSLE. Aug 16/17 are VERY important dates. Yet to receive the index number.

Sec school selection booklet can be put one side first until end of whole PSLE. Think our kids are stressed and pressurized enuf. Gave him a day off today...no revision or homework. Gosh, I feel some relief too
