Primary School

I have been actively searching for the kids primary school...husband is very keen on sending them to international school..whereas for me, I don't really mind sending them to local school..Looking at the school fees itself, almost make me faint...I rather go holiday overseas using that money...but you know, I should not be selfish...kids education is an investment as well...BIG investment.

Currently, I am eying on Sayfol International School. It is well recognised and monthly fee is RM625 (it is paid on term basis of RM2,500). 1 term equals to 4 months. One big problem is, the school is in the middle of the very jam city. So we will be facing difficulty of sending them there. My parent wont agree with our idea.

Secondly is "just find out" the elementary school of Brainy Bunch. I fell in love with the school once I read their programmes. Every morning they will do Solat Duha. Monthly fees is RM800. Same problem as above, they only have it in Putra Heights. 

Thirdly, is the Tanamera International School. Yet to discover...

When it comes to education, parents of course want the best they can give to the kids. 

And that mean, sacrificing my future holidays...

But whether the plan would be materialize or not still unsure. 

School Refusal

It started 2 weeks ago when Aqeel refuse to go to school. I thought maybe he was sleepy because that day he woke up as early as 5.00am. So I let him stay at home. The second day, still refuse to go to school and since my dad is not feeling well, they did not force him to school as well.

But on the third day the same thing happen, I start to wonder what is happening. I start googling how to handle kids that refuse to go to school or is it an early symptom of anything. Yes..I FREAK OUT. 

So many results came out, and most of it require us to get advice from paed if the refusal prolong for more than 1 week. So I waited...

The next day, my dad force him to school and he cried there. The teacher advice my dad to just let him stay in the school and they will try to comfort him. A few minutes after that, he stop cried but still refuse to enter his class. Being a PANIC mother, I bugging the teachers a few times a day, everyday..

I even asked him why he refuse, because for me he was not like this before. Last year we sent him, he never show refusal till this extend. Same school, same teacher, and even same classmate (his cousins). So I start to think that maybe he saw something in the classroom or whatsoever because u know little kids can see what adult cannot see.

So I start to think of every possible reason and until know I just dont know why. But he improve a lot this week. He still cried when dad send him but once seeing the teacher he stop. He even enter the class as usual.

Hopefully by nextweek he will be 100% ok since it is bugging me everyday try to think any possibilities of his refusal.

Thank you to the teachers for helping me getting through this. They make it easy for me by giving extra attention and try to comfort on him. Hopefully it works.

Labels

Aisha has been registered for pre school trial last Thursday. So another school uniform received. Hence, the tendency of mixing up of the school uniform among siblings and nieces are very high. Luckily I remembered a friend email about label..

There are so many kind of labels available, and to tell the truth, it is just hard for me to focus on which one to buy..*rambang mata*..

Everything is so cute and seriously, I thought of buying almost everything only then I realise I have to multiply the price with 3. It is in Australian Dollar..

So ended up buying just the cloth label for 3 kids..yup..including Aydin..I think the labels will last until they are in primary school since every name comes in 30 pieces..SO WORTH IT!!..go have a look here

 

Hawaiian Skirt and Belly Dance

I was busy making the hula skirt for Aisha and when Aqeel found, he wanted it badly..he even wore it while sleeping. After awhile, I took it off afraid that he will bring it to school. When he woke up the next day, he found the rope and start remember it. So he cried out loud and asking to wear it to school. Here are the video captured by teacher for his belly dance..

Sports Day

First time attending the Sports Day as a Mom..Yeay!! Fabulous Day indeed..Happy to see all those smiling faces of the small ones..

Aqeel is the youngest in the school. He has yet to reach 3 years old though and all his friends are 4 years and above.

He was quite blur of what is happening around him and teacher has to hold his hand in order to play. Aisha in the other hand was busy mingling with his brother's friends. She enjoyed the big space of the hall by running around and even took out her slippers.

When the event is about to start, husband has to carry her *even though she refuse*. I cannot imagine if she is inside the group what kind of havoc can she caused.

Enough of writing, let us enjoy the pictures..

Parent-Teacher Meeting

My little pumpkin has grown up. That is what i felt yesterday when i attend this meeting to discuss on the performance of my eldest son. 

Since this is my first time attending the meeting, I am quite nervous. *yup, moms are usually more emotional than the kids*. I even prepared some answers.

On his attitude, he is playful and that is expected. If I can recall, I told the teacher to just teach him a lesson *rotan* if he ever tease or bully his friends. He did that with his cousins.

On the development, since he is just 3 years old, I don't expect much from him. The main reason I sent him to school is that he will mingle with the boys and Yes, as per inform by the teacher, he scored A in socialize.

The best part is before school holidays, he has to sit for an exam and as expected he just refused to do it. So no exam result for him. Hopefully, by end of the year, I can see more development on this.
