      I know this is too early and probably silly..but I woke up this morning feeling a bit breathless that the P6 is finally here!

      Understand from many of you that revision will intensified starting from June. Do you think it is do-able to bring DS out for 3days' getaway at the start of June holiday? We do not want to stress him so much at home since the school will be doing a lot of that.
      Good idea...if a break will de-stress him. However, check with the school's schedule. Most schools conduct supplementary lessons during June holidays.

      Suggested this to my DS when he was sitting for PSLE last year. He turned the offer down, said having a break from revision will stress him further, cos he can't study and won't enjoy himself during the holiday. So we didn't go and tried not to give additional pressure at home. In the end, it worked out well. He did very well for PSLE. And we went for a long holiday after the PSLE. :boogie:

        The getaway is a good idea if your ds likes the idea too. But many schools have supplementary classes at the beginning of June holidays for PSLE students. So you might want to check on that first.

            It all depends on the school. Some schools do exchange papers with other schools and the school may get the P6 pupils to practise on other schools' papers.
            Past year PSLE questions come in booklet form, by topic. So not really doing as a \"paper\", rather questions from past PSLE.

                    Your DS rather serious hor..good thing his efforts went recognised by getting very good results. Congratulations! :rahrah: Not sure if my DS will accept or reject getaway in June but I know he is starting to feel the stress. As parents, academic is important but certainly it cannot beat well being of our children. Hee...think 3 off-days should be ok:)

                        challenging but I try to remind myself whether heavy hearted, breathless or not..I am not the one sitting for the exam so I shouldn't let my emotion and mood affect DS. Only can stress and sops behind closed door šŸ™‚ Of course, sometimes will accidentally show on the face or in my tone of voice but if possible,will try to create a normal environment for him to cope with the stress. If I really feel that I cannot control, will walk away and exercise really hard, charge my body up with Endorphins! KSP here is another great comfort, can pour your heart out :hugs:
                        btw, are you worried because of your DD P5 result or her attitude towards PSLE?
