We were in a bit of a rush for K's phonics lesson today but thankfully, we could still feed her before the lessons. K's childcare centre is going through a rebranding and thus have arranged for a session in the school for parents to understand the change. The school that K is attending in under a group that has 3 childcare centres in all and as the one that she is attending is situated at a void deck, the school is trying to apply to be spark-accredited. Although the good news is that if approved, the school fees will be lowered as they have a maximum ceiling what they can charge, the not so accepted news is that come 1 July, all the children will need to put on new school uniforms. 

K has worn hers for less than a year and it doesn't come cheap! Granted the school will be giving a set of uniform to all existing students, we will still need to buy 4 more sets for K as I do not wash them everyday. There is simply not enough to dump into the machine on a everyday basis and I do not trust my hand-washing skills. Having said that, I do know of parents who either handwash their child's uniforms everyday or dump them into the wash even if it's just that 1 set. Uniform, faded much? Yes!

Thankfully, the session ended earlier than scheduled and we still have enough time to send K to her phonics lesson. Since the little girl did not take her afternoon nap, again, she fell asleep soon after dinner at the coffeeshop. The hubs had to carry her to the community centre and let her sleep till about 10 minutes before the lesson. Talk about power nap. I rinsed her face when she woke up and then we waited a while before the class started.

Since the lesson is only for an hour, I've plan to start playing badminton at the open court with the hubs while waiting for the girl. We prefer to wait for her at the community centre than take the short walk home, just in case she needs us. Since it's not possible today, we will start next week. An hour or less of badminton is better than nothing. And if we can keep up with this, I might just stop my pilates session when the classes ends. Well, we'll see.
