Busy week

Last week was hell lot a busy week. Helped out at my colleague's training at MCYS on Monday and Tuesday.

Almost forgotten I still have intervention sessions at one of the centrew which was closed for a while dued to HFMD and our interventions have to be postponed.

This 2 weeks will be busy as we will be meeting parents to update on the children's progress. Some made huge progress, some little, while some their behaviours are better managed.

Was in office till quite late from Wednesday to Friday. Have to rush out their progress report.

Completed 6 parents meeting from Wednesday to Friday. So far the comments that parents give are good and that their children are either better or better managed.

There is a case where the child is an angel in class but a "devil" back at home. The child listen to the teachers and me. But disregard his parents' words. And everything the educators say all weigh a ton. Come to think of it, aren't us adults the same too? Sometimes we can better accept what outsiders say than someone close to us? And I can't believe he can remember word for word what I told him and he told his mom about it.

"Aunty Xiu Ling say her boss tell her to go other centres to teach other children."

 In other parent meeting, I was amazed by what the child told the mom on his own:

"Mummy, today is Friday. I will be seeing Aunty Xiu Ling. I will be a good boy."

It is heartwarming that I had created this positive impact on this boy who is trying to behave well and be a good boy.

Children know it. They know that you are genuinely caring and helping for them or not. They will put in the effort too. These are the little things that are heartwarming for us and that all the things that we had done are all worth it.

P.S:  44 days and counting.
