SVPS CCM Program

That's the Conversational Chinese & Malay Program,where non-Chinese students learn to speak Mandarin while Chinese students learn Malay.

Yesterday B1 brought our family photo to her CCM class.At night, she recited what she learnt in class...introducing her family members in Malay!

I think they should keep such classes going, not just for a few days for the P3 pupils only. The best is they just kept to only conversational lessons, with no exams! So learning is fun & no stress!

Last day of Term 2

Today is the last day of Term 2 and B1's going to get her report book today.

Tomorrow is Meet-Parent Session.Not supposed to bring B1, but we have to cos we need to bring B2 along, and leave B2 with B1 outside the classroom when we are talking to teacher.

GSS starts today at Taka..but I have no plan to go down...nothing in mind to buy and need to save $$$!

Being "tailed" at FairPrice Yew Tee Point-Shoplifting?

I am sure other mothers could shop with baby in a stroller and yet can still hold a basket...but it's challenging for me, so I prefer to hang a foldable tote behind the stroller and put the stuff in,then take out everything at the cashier.

Today, for the first time, I experienced being followed by a male FairPrice staff. He ran after me after picking up the water bottle that my baby threw on the floor, but strangely I found that he seemed to be tailing me even after handling over the bottle to me. Somehow he seems to be standing diagonally across me and not far from me all the time.

When I was paying at the cashier, he also suddenly appeared, walking freely and empty-handed passed me. At that moment, then I realised that he could be following me for quite some time and suspecting that I am shoplifting.

Though my conscience is clear,I still felt very offended. Do I look like a shoplifter? What an insult!

I am not sure if a see-through tote would help in situtations like this? Anyway I couldn't find any transparent/see-through foldable tote so far.
