      I agree, cos when my eldest son was in Sec 1 - 2 yrs ago I was kind of worried whenever hes not back by 3pm. I will call the sch n check - later on I realised that the sec sch life is normal for them to come back late. In fact Im seeing less n less of him now. We definitely have to support them emotionally and academically, they still need our guidance. I still give my son a hug once in a while just to boost his morale.

        Hi there,


        My daughter is sec 1 in an IP school too.

        She's very busy too - project, CCA, homework and stuff.. But generally she seems to be enjoying herself. 😄
        My girl is also in co-ed IP school.
        Busy but she also seems to be enjoying herself.
        SHe is also the chairperson of the class....her only grouse is that the boys are uncontrollable in class :lol:

          hi flametree & spring5, nice to see 2 year 1 girls here with me.


          I also feel that busy schedule is better than too free. I think its a matter of transition period and once they get use, they should be fine. I am glad to see improvement on my girls's attitute and adaptation to this transition. Every night, she has plenty to talk about her school, classmates, teachers till I yawn 😄

            Hi daisyt,


            My girl is also in sec1 IP school. I remember you are staying in Woodlands. Does your daughter take public transport to school. My girl spends 2hour+ every day to and from school. Aiyoh, so stressful…

            She gets up at 5:30am and comes back home after 7, except Friday.

              Hi chengsmummy, yes I am ! So happy to meet someone similar. Which school she is in ? 2 hour + thru and fro or just go ?

              My girl also wake up at 5:30am, leave at 6am, because she is very kiasu, wants to reach school early type. Same same lor, reach home very late. At first she was very stress and tired but now she is already getting use. Weekend is her beauty sleep time, can sleep till 8+ or 9. 😄

                Hi daisyt,


                My daughter is in RGS.

                She took school bus to school in the morning, which will pick her up at 6:10, she is same KS loh, insists getting up at 530, end up sitting on the sofa waiting for the bus coming.
                She took MRT or bus back to home.

                  hi chengsmummy, so good, have school bus. No need to stand or squeeze in our \"first class\" public transport like my girl. 😄


                  True, life is stressful. Last night, before she went to bed, she was telling me, \"Today, I am so physically and mentally drain up ! Sigh ... but thank goodness, tommorrow is Friday\".

                    hi daisyt,


                    which school is your girl in? I guess should have school bus.
                    TGTIF(thank godness, this is Friday) is what my girl says every Friday morning. But last night, she sadly told me, ‘mom, I can’t say TGTIF this week, because I have a makeup lesson for Japanese. will get back home after 7, sigh…’ and she worked for her physics project until 11+…

                      TGTIF, yes ! This is what she would say and at first I was still very blur, what is TGTIF.
