Post PSLE Results

Some mummies posted this. 

The next moment, all done. 

Last night, while tucking Zaky to bed, we both agreed that it didn't feel like he had just gone through one of the most major event of his 12 YO life that same morning. So strange. 

The primary school mummies' chat is buzzing with discussion on the S1 options (choosing secondary school). I felt left out. There is nothing to study and decide bcos there is only one option in the S1 portal - SST. Oh, Zaky can opt to take up Malay, Arabic or Bahasa Indonesian too. Nana had that option and she said that she cannot even cope with Chinese, let alone another language. Zaky just looked at me like I am crazy to even think about it. Hoho. 

Bcos everybody is talking about the schools, I cannot help to take a peek too. With AL 10, Zaky could have entered NH (11D) or SJI (10). Heart ache again. Luckily ACSI's COP is at 9 or my heart would bleed even more. 看爽的. 

The only sliver lining is the distraction from SST. I joined the parents chat group formed by the parent volunteers. The booklist and uniform purchase is up on SST website and the chat is buzzing with information. I found out that Zaky could inherit most of Nana's textbooks and SST does not have Literature, FCE and D&T. Science textbooks are optional (or use digital version) and no need to purchase Geography textbooks bcos the teacher will use notes instead. I think we can save alot on books. On the other hand, Nana's books are either hardcopy and digital bundle or new syllabus, meaning that she needs to buy all of them, eroding whatever savings from Zaky's side. Hahaha.
