New Kindy For Tim
Finally after much procrastination, my hubby and I have moved Tim to a new kindy run by my church. The reason we procrastinated was because we need to plan for transportations and babysitter arrangement for Tim. The new kindy only run half day and the other half he will go to the babysitter. We were very glad after a long negotiation that Emily’s babysitter decided to take care of him.
Why did we change his school? We saw no progression or development in Tim. He didn’t speak to any of the teachers and he is not reading. To top it all, the school gave him plenty of homework and there is no interest in him to do any of it. Worst is the syllabus is so advanced and Tim having a hard time to catch up. The teacher just let him be and did nothing to solve the problem. When my hubby had 1-1 with the teacher, the teacher didn’t give him a solution or plan to improve the situation.
I must say that Tim’s learning curve is slow and he needs more attention to learn. Now I have to tutor him in reading and spelling after work. Tell me at what age does boys learn to spell?

I guess each child’s learning curve is different. It’s good that both of you have decided to change Tim’s school. I hate to see teachers who have no solution to a child’s problem. That shows how disinterest they are to each child’s development. Let’s hope the new kindy works well for Tim.
