Bcos SA2 is So Over

Finally, SA2 is over and the results are in. My hamster carrot maintained. I am reasonable ok, every year, I dropped the expectation a little bcos I know work gets harder. While my expectations are high, they are achivable; they must work hard to earn their hamster.

I was super encouraging and reminded them of their hamster target every SA but I doubt they will ever get one. Hohoho. Lil Shauna has the tenancy to screw up for SA1 but Zaky would perform great. Then Lil Shauna would buck up for SA2 while Zaky would be erratic. Hamster only materialised if they both meet the target. Awww.... Sorry but not sorry. Rearing a hamster is hard work and I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up as the main caregiver eventually.

Lil Shauna's SA2 results were indeed pleasing, with huge improvements to her maths. She improved substantially for her Science too bcos she did so badly for SA1 but I still think that she could have done better.

Zaky's result in Maths and Science were disappointing. He came home one day and told me without a hint of remorse that he lost 12 marks in Maths to careless mistake and he could have gotten full marks. Zzzzz.

Nevertheless, SA2 is over and I reminded them that they had tried their best or at least I think I had worked hard. Hoho. Play is now legit and the kids had played hard.

The kids had spent so many evenings after SA2 with the neighbour kids.

The weekends had been fun filled. From meeting the SHSS gang to the 3Fs.

They probably would have aced the SA2 and gotten their hamster if they had studied as hard as they played. Hohoho.

It is more play, play and play... Until school starts and Lil Shauna faces the PSLE monster.
