Shortened School Holidays

 

Now, I like school holidays as much as young kids because it means less “rushing” and less “multi-tasking” for me.

Unfortunately, it is only half way through the brief one-week school break and Brendan has already started lessons in school.  He spent his brief school holidays completing many school worksheets and gearing up for the PSLE preparation.  His June school holidays was also shortened as his Primary 6 level started school lessons earlier than other students. 

How I wish Brendan could be given this precious one-week school term break to really “freshen up” from the recently over Primary 6 Preliminary examinations and recharge for PSLE examinations round the corner INSTEAD of having a shortened school break.  His tutors are also requiring him to attend extra lessons during this crucial month.

[I didn't recall so much pressure being placed on me when I sat for my PSLE more than 20 years ago.]

My poor boy:(

 

How he wished to be able to enjoy his school holidays like Darren

Has PSLE put too much pressure on the schools and tuition centres and SO… also on the kids? Everyone seems to be squeezing as much time as possible from our boy.

Haiz… Is this the typical stress of a Primary 6 student or the pressure of  our boy being in a local top school?

How nice if our boys were borned 20 years earlier because the PSLE fever was seriously less infectious then.

 

Son, bear with it one more month. This will soon be over. JIAYOU!:)
