Back in October 2009, I wrote a short letter to The Straits Times newspaper to complain about the senselessness of scheduling school holidays like Children's Day right smack in the middle of the week (depending on the day Oct 1st fell on) .. voila, the Ministry of Education AGREED with me ..
My letter and their reply :)
Am so glad that this year, both Children's Day and Teacher's Day is now a long weekend instead of a weekday right smack in the centre of the week.
Scheduled school holidays for 2011 :)
ok, ok .. I'm sure it's not solely cos of my letter .. and truthfully, it's not like I moved mountains. But it's nice to know that finally, they're doing SOMETHING about it. I'm sure I wasn't the ONLY one who complained.
