Will Preston skip school this Fri ?  I try not to plan any holiday with Davin in China in order not to give an excuse for my in-laws to visit their relatives.  As a matter of fact, I really don't like the living environment there.

Anyway, I think Preston will enjoy the trip.

ljsze,
Friday is school holiday so he doesn't need to skip school. I try not to skip school coz it's not a good habit to do so. I'm not quite sure if he'll enjoy the trip coz recently he seems to be afraid of everything. He may be afraid of the animals. Anyway, it's a good experience for him.

ljsze, Lydia,

Haven't been to the chat room for long.

I was busy with my work and some family matters.  I had to deal with a number of tasks at the same time.  So tired.  Luckily, those are just time- consuming task and not too difficult to handle.

ljsze,

Tomorrow is the staff development day for LH teachers.  Students do not need to go to school.

ljsze

I forgot about this.

Lydia

I'm sure Preston will enjoy the trip.  Basically kid likes animals, though sometimes Davin is scared of small bugs or mosquitoes.

DorisTSL

Lydia,

Enjoy your trip.

ljsze,

What will Davin do today?  Brian will probably stay at home with my parents.  Last night, he asked if I could take today off and go out with him.  When I said I couldn't, he asked me to go home earlier.

ljsze

Doris

Good morning.  Davin has also got no special activities.  He's staying at home with my mother-in-law (my father-in-law went out this morning).  I let him play computer game just before I left home.

So cool that Brian made the response to ask you return home earlier.

Btw, every Friday I will leave office earlier to pick Davin for art lesson which starts at 5pm.

Any plan during his Easter holiday ?  I've got no special plan.  Maybe go to AIA carnival again, or museum or Tai Po park.  I will also let him take a one-day Easter workshop on Apr 10.

DorisTSL

ljsze,

I finally returned home about half an hour earlier than usual yesterday.  It's good that I could have some time to play with him before he had dinner.

My holidays starts today.  I have no special plan for Brian's Easter holiday.  I will just bring him to different places for exploration.  About museum, Brian has been to the Science Museum long ago.  I will search on the web to see if there are other suitable museums for Brian.

Doris,
So nice you can start your holiday so soon. Brian must be happy to see you at home every day.

ljsze,Doris,
Preston asks similar thing as Brian. He asks me every day if I have to go to work today, tomorrow.... and he'll be so happy that I don't have to go and can stay home. Every time he makes me want to quit my job and stay home with him.

We had a wonderful time at Chime Long. He was a bit scared and bored by the long circus show (it was a great show but a bit too loud and long for a kid). He was also very excited to see different animals at the zoo and he got a chance to feed the giraffe and elephants. I think it's a good place for kids.

DorisTSL

Lydia,

It's good to know that Preston enjoyed the trip.  I think all kids like animals (may be scared at the beginning but will like them soon) and they will love feeding them.

Although my holiday starts early, I still have to work from time to time during the holiday and my holiday will end earlier than that of Brian.

ljsze

Lydia

Good to hear that Preston enjoyed the trip.  I remember our last trip to Japan that we visited Ueno Park in Tokyo.  I guess very few HK people will go there.  Yet, to our surprise, it's really huge with lots of animals to see & games to play.

Doris, Lydia

For every long school holiday, I will take some days off from work.  He will still cry if we go for work during his holiday.  So, Lydia, I understand why you said you once thought of quitting your job.

LydiaWong

ljsze, Doris,
Miss Cheng told me that Preston was excited to tell the class about the trip. He told the class about the circus (some kids asked what circus was and Preston did not know how to explain) and what he saw at the zoo. It's a good experience for the kids to stand in front of the class and talk. We didn't have much experience when we were a kid and most HK students are weak at presentation. It's a good training for them.

ljsze

Lydia

So, Preston should have enjoyed the trip very much.

Davin was also excited to share his experience in the class after visiting some interesting places.

Davin couldn't sleep in the afternoon yesterday as the sound of thunder was too loud.  So, he rubbed his eyes a lot & the result is that he looks awful today.

DorisTSL

Lydia, ljsze,

It's true that the kids nowadays have more chances to stand in front of the class and talk.  It's good that they have 'show and tell' session every Wednesday.

ljsze,

Brian also didn't sleep well yesterday afternoon because of the thunder.  He asked me to sleep with him.  It took me over half an hour to bring him to nap.

BTW, I saw some photos of Davin posted in Room 5.  Were those photos taken in Science Museum?

ljsze

Doris

Agree with you.  Davin likes show & tell session a lot.

You're right.  Those pictures were taken at Science Museum.  Davin had much fun.  We did not visit all sections & will go again for sure.

Doris, Lydia

Davin will cry if thunder is too loud.  How about Brian or Preston ?

LydiaWong

ljsze,Doris,
Preston would not cry if there is a thunder but he would say he's scared. But he can still sleep even with loud noise.

ljsze

Lydia

Hi !  Davin is so scared that he would cry if thunder is too loud.  I remember some time ago that I had to use tissue paper to cover his ear at night when there was thunder & lightning.

DorisTSL

ljsze, Lydia,

Brian would not cry for thundering but he felt scared.  If the thundering happened at night, he would ask for sleeping with my husband and me.

BTW, I saw less than 20 K1B kids lining up during morning exercise this morning.  I guess some of them may be on holiday.

DorisTSL

Hi Mocha,

Some kids who live in areas like Hung Hom, Kowloon City and Homantin will take school bus to school.  The school buses will park at Level B1 of the Fisherman's Wharf.  Janitors and Staff in Learning Habitat will come and bring them to the school.

You may just tell the school about this and they will make arrangement for you.

In which class will your kid study in May?

LydiaWong

Hi Mocha,
My son is taking the school bus currently. Where will you get on? In Hung Hom region costs $320.
