I went to get JE's report card last week. Her results are about the same as the previous year - roughly in the top third. (I used to do much better myself, but that was NOT a Chinese school!) I'm just happy JE is coping well enough.
She looks forward to report card days. Coz Mummy will take her to the canteen and buy her what she wants to eat/drink. Then we will go to the book sale part, which they always organise to coincide with report card days, to buy some stuff.
Oreos and a strawberry drink
The actual meeting with the teacher was short, also like in the previous year. I don't speak Mandarin, I don't trust my Cantonese and it'd be weird to be speaking in Malay. So halting English it was and that was the whole reason why it was a short one haha. JE is well-behaved anyway so there are no complaints. Only an encouragement for her to speak up more in school.
Children look forward to report card day because they can go home earlier with their parents.
ReplyDeleteGuess so! I'm glad too she isn't a naughty kid with many complaints from the teacher!
DeleteYou mean her teaching speaks halting English because I am sure you speak perfect English. They should improve the English of teachers. Well done to JE for maintaining her work.
ReplyDeleteWell her English is still better than my Mandarin so I can't say too much!
DeleteYay good job JE!! Can imagine how tough it must be to be in a Chinese-speaking school... does that mean school term has ended also?
ReplyDeleteAh no, report card day is twice a year and some time after the exams. Not really close to the quarterly school holidays.
