Kids @ Work.


Good evening ladies & gentlemen, welcome onboard Flight Six.Two 2010 Express to PSLE. This is your captain, Mr Alan Tan, speaking. If u are heading for good results, u are in the right place. If u are not, u are about to have a really long year ahead.

I like to tell u about some important rules onboard this aircraft. The most important one is...... self-discipline. Please ask yourself if u have one now.

There are four groups onboard this plane, two with 10 members each, one with nine, and the fourth with eight. If u are lucky enough to be seated near to your P5 classmates or good friends, please do not chit-chat with one another during lessons. That would be a really bad idea.

Please take a moment and look around and find that 'special' isolated table beside mine. Count the rows of seats between u and that table. In the event that the need arises for u to sit there, trust me, u'll enjoy my full attention.

In the event that I lose my temper, the umbrella in your bag will come in handy. You stick it over your head like what u would do when it rains. It won't rain in the plane, but it will pour, I promise.

If u are sitting next to a small child, or someone who is acting like a small child, please do us all a favour by looking after yourself first.

If u have two or more good friends sitting next to u, please take a moment now to decide which is your favourite. Help that one first, and work your way down.

The yellow paper that u have in the file is our timetable. I normally fold it into paper aeroplane. Please take it out and play with it now.

There is no nonsense on this flight. If I see any, I will assume that u are thrash and throw u out. This is a free service I provide.

In a moment I'll be signing off, and I am going to get really serious starting next week. If u are afraid, now would be a good time to press the orange button to eject yourself out.

I am glad to have u onboard this flight. Thank you for choosing Six.Two 2010 Express, and giving me a chance to guide u. If there's anything that I can do to make u feel more at ease, please do not hesitate to ask. (",)
