Time really flies.. my little boy is in P1 now... it's kind of hard to believe that. In 2006, when Fiona was barely 6 mths, we were frantically looking for a flat within 1km of CHS... thank God he was chosen in the ballot & I guess the rest is history.
Aaron is in 1 Charity or 1A, with Mrs Karen Lee as his form teacher. Mrs Lee is a bubbly and interesting teacher who teaches Maths and English.
First week of school is more or less orientation. No homework, just getting to know friends, teachers etc. The school had a buddy system where they have a P5 boy to guide the P1s during recess. His buddy was called Bryan. Aaron was so excited that he was able to buy things with the pocket money we gave him. I was around during the first 3 days - Aaron would buy Milo, Pizza and sometimes sandwich. After food, he would go down to the bookshop area - there is a piano there... we noticed he enjoyed playing Turkish March and Fur Elise on that piano with a few other older kids. Routine wise, we got to get him to get up at 6am to catch the schoolbus at 640am. After school, it's an afternoon for revision, reading and assessment books.. it's kind of hard to sink a playful child into a routine of revising school work, doing homework. That's just the beginning of his many years of school life. Study hard Aaron!

I have not updated my Blog for a long long time... been busy recently with work and coping with the three kids' demand. It's not easy to manage that. Sibling rilvary hits almost everyday. Aaron has just started P1 and the demand of having to coach him in his school work adds on the my task list. I need sleep...haha. Nevertheless, my 3 prince/ princesses have been happy kids. I think my household is the nosiest in my entire block of flats, amongst the households of older folks whom I have as neighbours.

National Day gathering was at Uncle's place @ Blk 79 Marine Parade. Was q unfortunate the lift broke down while we were inside. Ma, Pa, KH, me and 3 kids were trapped!

Walking up 25 Floors was really no joke!

I think i shall export the statistics for 2009 P1 Phase 2B registration for keepsake :p

Happiness! Aaron got in to Catholic High during the P1 registration!!!! Only 2 schools conduct balloting for <1km applicants n CHS is one of them. Next is its sister school St Nics. Mum went for the ballot as both KH and i couldnt make it... she was a bit late and it was already near the end when she heard her number called... I was really overjoyed when she called me. It was my co's year end close and the stupid Oracle system screwed up big time... was really upset cos we cant produce the PL in time... the news really cheered me up. Somehow, the feeling is as if I have strike lottery :p Yeah!

Finally, we were at Catholic high to do P1 registration for Aaron...reached there at 930 am and there were already 35 applicants ahead of us!! We waited for more than an hr and finally it was our turn... havent been so kang cheong for a long time. We had to go thru the verification stage and finally to the registration stage. I found out that we r no 25 in the queue of 37 places. So, tentatively still quite "safe" cos when we left the school, there were only 42 applicants. But by end of day 1, there were 51 applicants!!! Aiyo... maybe will need balloting for 1km pp. But surprisingly, the no reduced to 48 by day 2, which means probably some parents opt out. Now, i'm crossing my fingers whether need to ballot or not. God PLEASE bless us :)
