Hi my daughter is in Perseverance 1. Anyone in the same class and would like to exchange info ?

Has anyone received any feedback from the teacher about ur child?
Cos till now I hv yet to receive any, and I dunno how she is doing at school. She keeps forgetting things like her water bottle and jacket.
And many times when the teacher writes on the board and they are supposed to copy into their handbook, she forgets to copy them!
So if anyone out there has ur gal in the same class with mine, hope u dun mind if we could exchange contact or info so we can share experiences or events?
Today she brought back a pupil handbook 2011 but nothing is written in it either. :?:

Dear Mummies,


Which is better; JingShan or Teck Ghee?

Please advice. Thanks.

Hi! U are looking at the exact 2 schools as me!
Hope our questions will be answered soon

I think u will kind of know wat ur child learn when she starts talking or singing, u may find tat suddenly she knows this and knows that. But maybe N2 a bit young to tell out. Actually i used to think tat my daughter’s school dunno what they are teaching her, but den at the meet the parents session, the teachers do give a detailed explanation, and let u bring back all the books and art and craft that she has done thru out the yr. Den i realised, wow she did quite a lot of work.

But if u think tat the teachers din do a gd job of explaining what they hv been doing, den judge by ur instincts, if u think something is lacking, by all means go look for a better school. I believe any parent has the right to know what her child is learning in school.
Btw i hv changed school for my daughter twice already.

ya maybe it taste like \"suan mei' , the sour plum haha...btw she does like to eat 'suan mei', which is kind of gd for her throat, since the salt will kill germs in there.

Ya she still eats her 'nose gold', but the dry ones... erm so far haven seen her eat wet ones ha ha...I used to eat wet ones when young, without using the fingers, jus straight fr the nose to the mouth! :celebrate:

What’s the diff with Montessori and other schools? My daughter is in a Church school which also claims to prepare kids for primary 1.

Montessori is more ex rite? Abt $700 plus?

My girl likes to dig her nose, and eat whatever tat comes on her fingers! :idea: Started a few mths ago till now. I'm like :shock: taste nice meh? She jus laughed and said ya.

I will scold her and tell her not to do it again, so now she does it behind me, or literally behind my back, she tot i cannot see, but too bad i could see becos of the mirrors in the lift! :x In public some more :stupid:
Actually my mum told me tat i used to do tat when i was young too :?

HI all thanks so much for all ur responses!

Well I did try to get books for my daughter to do at MIL’s place, however my MIL is too busy with 2 other nieces. And mind u, they are very disturbing and too young to reason with. Tat is another problem other than my daughter’s studies. My daughter is constantly frustrated with the 2 kids, cos they are too young to understand and bother her too much. They follow her and snatch her things. She will not retaliate or snatch back, but she will get angry and cry. Which makes me worried too. Give me 5 mins with the 2 kids and I will also go crazy. Sometimes they will pull her hair or hit her too. I do scold them whenever I am there, except when their parents are around of cos. But the more they know u dun wan them to do something, the more they do it! Aaarrggghhhh!!! My MIL will try to scold them too, but one can tell that she dotes on them too. So the 2 kids kind of know they hv a backup.
I did not put her in full day childcare partly cos of the costs, as well as my MIL wants her to be home to see her.
Anyway, I hv kind of found a soln to her studies. I will prob put her at kumon to hv classes twice a wk in the evening, while I will coach her during the wkends, and maybe 1 or 2 days I will make time to coach her in the wkdays. It is tiring for me, cos I am pretty busy at work too, when I am at home I also hv to log in to continue my work. I know many of u parents are so busy too, especially with 2 or 3 kids. So I can’t complain, I hv to strive on!
Its good some of ur husbands chip in too. Mine jus sticks his buttocks to the sofa or chair for TV or computer. I thk in my next life I prefer to be a man ha ha! I did lose it with him at times and he will get scared and change for a few days. But after tat he will revert back to the same ways. Wat to do?
I worry abt everything for the family, go holiday also I plan, and yet I hv to worry abt my work. My mind and body are just so tired.

Hi I am new here! So glad to hv found this forum, becos it suits me the best, and answers most of my stressful problems.

I hv a 4 & a half daughter, am a working mother and hv no maid. Wun consider one until i hv my 2nd child. ANyway, here i am, asking u folks, how do u manage your time? As in how do u juggle work, family(hubby & kids), friends, fitness or beauty at the same time?
My main concern is of cos my daughter's education. I find tat I do not hv any time to coach her with her studies. My MIL takes care of her but my MIL is not educated, so she only speaks Mandarin. As a result, everyday after school, my daughter does nothing but play with her nieces and watch cartoons. There is no one to sit down with her to study. And when I am off work, by the time I go and fetch her back fr there, it would be 9 plus already, which means nearly her bed time. So where do I find the time to coach her in her studies? I hv tried to give her homework to do in the day, she did the first few times, but then later i found out it was the maid (not mine) who did it for her. I'm so frustrated. :stupid:
Anyone got any advice? I planning to send her to some evening classes, but tat would also mean i hv to rush back fr work to fetch her to the class.

Anyone can help this busy mummy here? :?

Thanks in advance~
