      My ger will only be in p1 next yr. Let's see how it will work out eventually. She's currently oso taking ballet and piano. As a FTWM, i find it hard to schedule her lessons and training at home now. Now thinking if i shld let her drop piano.

      Think If U Can, Try To Let her Go thru P1, then U Sit Down with Her to See Where Her Interest Lies ....
      P1 is Not So Bad, HW - Wise, So should B Able to Cope ....

          Hi Sorry for the Late Reply,
          Have not Been Looking at this Thread for Some Time ....

          I Used to Work Full Time in my Gal's 1st 4 years in Primary School, but have tone down to Part Time Last Year ....

          My Gal is in the School Competitive Team since P2, till Now.
          Yes, Squeezing Time Out to send my Gal to Training is Rather a Strain to Me during those Days ....

          My Gal Trains 3x per week in school, and 2x per week in External Gym ....
          On top of that, during her P1 and P2 days, she's Got Chinese Dance and Ballet at NAFA, on top of other Enrichment Classes Like Abacus, Piano, Chinese Compo, Taekwando, etc.

          I Rely A Lot on My Live-in Maid to Send My Gal to and From Class ....
          Most of Her Classes R in the CC Nearby or in School (we R within Walking distance to school), So No Problem for My Maid to Handle ....

          I Make it a point to Handle All the To-and-Fro for Far Away Classes like in NAFA, etc

          Must Say it's Rather Taxing, But AS LONG AS My Gal wanted it, I'll Gotta Squeeze Time Out for Her lor ....

          By Upper Primary, She has Decided What She Like to Keep and Drop the Rest ....
          Reason Being :
          1. Cannot have So Many Classes - Got Time Constraints ....
          2. Lose Interest in Some Classes Already - No Longer Enjoy Them

          So Now, Her Main Interest is in Rhythmic Gym and Chinese Dance ....

          And, Oh Recently, Late Last Year,
          She Develops interest in Chinese Caligraphy,
          So Added Chinese Caligraphy Class in Waterloo Street to the list ....

            ^ Funx3,

            Thank you for the reply. I do not have a helper and her school do not have gym. So dd1 needs to travel from Sengkang to Toa Payoh for her gym. Thank goodness her ballet and music are nearby. Now i am thinking if i shld switch her gym club. DD1 is more interested in RG but her club only has RG once a week (1hr) which is not enough. She spent 4 hr per week on AG now. However dd2 is the AG one and trains 2x/week at the same club.
            Which club does your dd go for her external RG training?

              Sat 12noon to 3pm
              Sun 4pm to 6pm
              U can Choose the Number of Hours / how many days U wish to train.
              She Does Both AG & RG Training at the same Time Slot.

              Mmmmm ....
              Gym at Toa Payoh ....

                  Know Prime Gym is Very Good with AG, with Very High Standard.
                  Is Your Gal in Competitive Team?

                  Did Not Know they Teach RG ....
                  Who is the Coach?

                    ^yep, she’s in competitive AG. That’s y I’m a bit reluctant to take her out of Prime. Will talk to her tonight n see which one she wants to focus on. She’s with coach Yin Na at Prime. Was thinking if she prefers RG, I’ll let her continue her AG at Prime once weekly for 2hr and RG with Flyonce.

                        hi all


                        can i check how much do you all pay for the gym fees?

                        We are paying $500+ for her twice weekly 1.5hrs lesson. Is this the normal rate?

                        thanks 🙂
