Alycia and Sherilyn’s mid-term exam is finally over today! But for Alycia, she still has to sit for the Science and Math test papers in English language on Monday. I find this a tad ridiculous. The students have to study in dual language for Math and Science and sit for the exam twice (first in Chinese language and then in English) BUT the marks for the 2 test papers in English are not calculated to determine the class and standard positions. So what’s the point? The students know that they do not really have to put in their best effort as it is pointless. Even if they score 100% or flunk the test, that will not affect their class and standard positions. The schools are merely putting up the tests in the spirit of the Government’s call previously for these 2 subjects to be taught in English.
Anyway, a big bag of stress is off both my shoulders and I can now walk with both my shoulders feeling so much lighter 😀 The girls and I are all very excited and looking forward to our trip to Port Dickson. It will be the girls’ first visit to Port Dickson. We will be staying at Thistle Port Dickson, a very nice hotel by the beach. Can’t wait to have this long-awaited break with my girls and hubs!
