NUSH Admission Talk - 30 May

PB went on half day leave so as bring Gordon to NUSH talk which scheduled to start at 7pm. At the same time, Gloria was supposed to give a speech too on the same night to the parents and students. She had already been helping out for the Maths Carninval from 29~30 May. However, late in the evening, Ms Masni then told her to re-schedule her speech to 2 weeks later... After checking with Ms Masni, she was so nice to put her on that night to give a short speech.

Talked to Adeline (Bev's mum) and we were both quite excited about the girls giving the speech after Dr Hang. Surprised! PB, Gordon and I couldn't believe Gloria could speak so well! She did a good job and explained why she chose NUSH and how she enjoyed the flexibility of the modular systems that had helped her in her learning process.

The auditorium was almost full and we stayed back a little while to help answer questions posted by some curious parents. By the time we were back home it was already half past ten! Tuck the kids in as Gloria needs to wake up early the next morning to ACS Barker for Youth for Causes! I really think she is busier than the adults!

Gordon's 12th Birthday - 10 May'08












It's Gordon's 12th Birthday!


Gave him a surprise at Jack's Place at Parkway Parade. He didn't know we got him a bd cake. At the end of the dinner, we got the restaurant manager to play the kiddy version of bd song over the PA and the waiter brought out the cake and walked towards him!



He kept asking if there was any cake for him and told him that we have no time to buy one! Ha! Ha! Was glad that he was surprised (as he always loves surprises!).



The same day was also eve of Mother's Day so the food was ok and so so. Anyway, we enjoyed the dinner and had a good time at the arcade.


Gloria's NUSH Speech Day - 23 April 08




















Finally, it is time to prove that she has made the right choice!

Recalling 2 years ago when we urged her to consider RGS instead of NUSH, however, we let her chose her own path - to pursue her own interest in Maths and Science.

We are really very happy for her for her own effort and achievement:

1.Top Student for Year One
2.Principal's List
3.Best in English
4.Best in Geography
5.Best in History

All the way, girl! We'll definitely give you our best support!
