We’re getting a tad emotional as some of our 1st few PlayDate kids enrolled in PlayDate Literacy 10 years ago, will now be taking PSLE!
Some of them have been with us since 2 years, advancing from our basic Phonic classes (MY READING TOT aka STEP 1) to our English creative writing/compre/public speaking classes (MY ELOQUENT SCHOLARS aka STEP 5).
How time flies !
Good luck kiddos! You’ve got this!
