2day could be the happiest day of many school children, including my 3 Simlets... cos' it is the last day of School, the beginning of the June School Holiday! Hurray!!!
Not only can they can sleep late, wake up late.. n the best part, dili-daly for whole month to do the school holiday work.
All work (school work esp) n no play makes Jack (Jill also lah) a dull boy (girl)
I always tell my children, if I were the principal of any school, I will make sure school holidays really means school holidays, no homework at all!
But tis is ideal, cos' few parents will appreciate tat.. they wanna more n more so tat to keep the children busy, busy, busy.. aiyoh!
Wat 2 occupy our children during school holiday may b a challenge.. do we pack our children with enrichment programmes or camps.. or juz let them b themselves at home.. I wonder..
I am pretty switched off parent.. n I will let the Simlets enjoy one another's company for the next 1 week before deciding wat 2 do with them...

If u were the principal, life would be a bed of roses for all the students(except parents cos they will have to buy more assessment books to keep their child occupied)!
ReplyDeleteI really dunn understand why the Ministry of Education Singapore wants to stress all the children in S'pore leh... I have got tons of homework everyday!!!
救命呀！！！！！！！！！！！
Aiyoh.. The society is after paper chase, it is not in Singapore alone, but in other countries,most parents are like tat too.. some worse, cos' they believe paper is the key 2 get the most desirable job for their children.
ReplyDeleteHow's about character?
Wisdom vs Intelligence..hair-thin difference, isn't it?
