School has started and life is beginning to get hectic for BB & GG!

GG started school on a very positive note. As I have mentioned previously, she moved up to the better stream and is doing more humanities subjects. These are subjects she is very interested in and wants to make a career in one of those. She is also exploring about becoming a  teacher, so we’ll have to see how this all pans out.

She also started the school year falling sick but has soldiered on because of practice for the choir. They had a performance yesterday for the incoming sec 1s and were promoting their CCA to get interested students to join and despite having a temperature, she went to school and gave it her all! Last year, her form teacher, who also manages the choir mentioned that she will be up for a CCA leadership position. Oh, and she also managed to become the class secretary, so that’s one more leadership position for her.

BB’s Sec 3 life is not as dramatic as that of his sister, but he is also doing the subjects he enjoys. The pace has also picked up for him with homework being given out right from the first lesson. Some subjects are new, yet old, like pure physics, pure chemistry, advanced math and pure history. He also has said that he likes all his teachers, so hopefully this year he does better than sec 2.

Later today, GG will receive her second consecutive scholarship award. I’m trying to get BB to also achieve this award next year, let’s see! Both children will have their common tests next month, so I need to start being on their case.

Hope 2018 has been good for you so far. Again, Happy New Year!!
