I would like to congrats all the 2013 PSLE kids for completing their Primary school education. All the best to your new journey next year. Hope all of you get into your dream schools! :rahrah:


Glorymum, you have done a great job! :love:
I :salute: your effort for maintaining this thread for the benefits of those who find it useful.

Personally, I don't see any harm in setting up this thread to share top T-scores. Different people view things differently. To me it's like sharing their happiness (those who did well).

Cheers!

Yes, I think the kids will understand more about our country's history but whether they will love this country more or not........ Is questionable especially if they treat it as just a subject that they must passed in P6 to maintain their GEP status.

I believe it has a positive effect when the kids are younger...but their perception can change over the years

It's good that you're positive.

5 subjects will be tested and graded, English, Maths, Higher MT, Science and Social Studies. It is a great opportunity to learn social study in the age of 10, when studied in the right attitude, the kids will grow to love this country very much.... and this country needs your child. Please do not stop them from taking up the program if being selected.

They have to write book review on The Westling Game,
long essay to compare & contrast The Giver and Hungry Game, etc
Basically those chim chim stuff.

So language proficiency has to be at least more than adequate.

I tried reading The Westling Game because my dd1 raved about that book. Gosh, nearly fell asleep. Boring. Never proceed beyond page 45

LOL so this book is more for GEP P3 kids. :siam:

Sorry, I don't think there is any GEP classes for P3 right? In P3 the kids sit for the selection test. GEP starts only from P4 to P6.
Paiseh :oops: , After reading your post again this morning, realized you're just joking, hahaha. Shouldnt read after my bedtime.

I am using KNT movers, price reasonable with free new boxes, labels & tapes. No deposit collect from me unlike most movers I called. So far i am satisfied but can only confirm after my moving this Sat.

Just in case you thought I bought from the stores. No, these are the results of my persistent 3 mths experiment, batches after batches and adjustments to my recipes.

Add 25g raisins and 50g walnuts to my original recipe.

Dasalo, your raisin & walnuts bread looks really good! I see also :drool: .
Really pro Liao, can I place my order? :love:

My favorite ice-cream is daily scoop at Sunset way! The ice-creams are not too sweet & I loves all the flavors. Last Sat I tried their purple rice ice-cream, its like eating the purple rice dessert but better. Initially u will find the rice a bit hard but it becomes very chewy after a while & can get addicted to chewing it.

2 weeks ago, I had their maple crisp, it's a must try even if you are not a fan of maple syrup. We didnt buy the take home pack coz dont wanna my DS knows that we secretly go eat ice-cream without him. :oops:
My DS came to know about our ice-cream treat coz we dont know how to lie so last week we \"report\" to Daily Scoop again to get Maple crisp for him & luckily we manage to buy the last tub home.

The bottom.......I am so embarrassed to put this up but I m trying hard nit to blame the BM.

its usually the baker's fault lol.....
Nevermind, I will get better 1 fine day ....

Fishball, could it b your BM problem?
This is my Z-machine bake using Dasalo's TZ recipe. Not sure what you r looking for but I am quite happy with my bread bake in BM. The raisins are spread equally unlike yours. I don't normally bake using my BM but I will use this recipe if I want to save time by using full bm function. To add on , I actually knead the dough for one cycle using dough function only, then I press the full cycle.
