First day of primary school
-
This is my 2nd year going through P1. The 1st was last year so the memory is still fresh. I did something different this year as I volunteered to help out during recess time. Last year’s observation was only those who are PV has a chance to go near the kids’ table. All other parents must stand at 1 corner so as not to crowd around the kids.
Didn’t know it can be so rewarding until I was designated to help another class as there were quite a number of parents in my son’s class. My son asked me in the evening, "Mummy, why didn’t you help out at my class today?". It made me realise that wow, he actually notice that and he is very happy to see mummy helping out and he feels proud about it.
Other than that, all the kids in his class already know his name for good and bad reasons… The good is that teachers are asking him to help to clean the whiteboard as well as carry books as he is a physically big boy. The bad is he tend to speak very loudly so he has been "recognised" by the P1 manager who happens to teach him… But on top of that, since he is sitting at the back of class and easily distracted, mummy has "saboed" him by requesting his teachers to ask him to answer more questions so that he don’t dare to daydream in class. Despite the "fierce" teacher, he is still enjoying school. He just need to learn to mge that. -

Yes! Actually there are about 3-4 tall girls in class!
Oh, there's another tall girl in the class? The boys had better grow up quickly.

lolz! :lol:
My mum was complaining that her uniforms are too big and we bought her another 2 sets on the next day (lucky it's a Saturday). Now she has got 4 sets of uniforms (after my DMum made the alterations)!! She commented that I used to wear skirts so much shorter and now my DS wears like a nun!!!!!! wahaha
Yes...some of the girls in my boy's school are wearing skirt that are almost reaching the ankle...

MMM:
My boy would have said that I am distracting him and will cause him to do badly in school....so he forbids me to join the PSG :roll: . My guess is that he didn't want to give me any chance to rant about his behaviour to his teachers and hence spoil his good-boy-image in school. :lol: Then I told him that he must work hard in school...else mummy gonna go become PV....

I didn't take any photos for the first day of schoo, but, hey, it is still the first week of school so I should get it done.
My girl was suppose to wake up at 7am to get ready for her before school care, but she woke up at 6 am because she was super excited.
Yes .. I helped out as a PV too, but she took the school bus to school and was pretty much on her own, and nope .. I didn't check her out during recess because for the 1st 3 days, we have paid for them to have their recess breaks in class. She will start her buddy system of buying food today.

I checked with my daughter last night and she said that her partner is a Malay boy. I wonder if she will ignore him or boss him around. :lol:

Yes, I did see at least one girl with skort halfway to the shin. Isn't it difficult to walk in a long skort? (Like wearing kimono...)

It's good that my daughter goes to childcare 'cause this means that she knows others from the same school too, just not same class or same age. At least I only have to worry about her academics, especially Chinese.
