Parental Guidance Seminar

Temasek Polytechnic has just announced the Parental Guidance Seminar!

What: Parental Guidance [PG] Seminar
When: Saturday, 16 August 2008, 10.00am
Where: Temasek Convention Centre at Temasek Polytechnic

Are we watching movies?
... No. You are not watching movies. In fact, this event isn't even specifically directed at you (by you I'm assuming you're a student taking your O levels this year).

Huh? Then?
It's for your parents! Hello aunties and uncles! *waves*

Okay, now I'm confused.
Okay, then I'll explain it to you. Parents are usually very concerned about their child's O levels. It's kind of a thing parents do. But often times, many of these concerns go un-met. Questions like, "My child weak in Maths, but wants to do Engineering. How??" or "Graduate after poly the pay good or not?" and stuff like that.

Okaaaay. So this seminar helps how?
I'm glad you asked. We'll have TP Staff, current students and even their parents come to share their experiences (the parents of the students, not the staff) and answer these questions that your parents have! Be it questions regarding entry requirements, what you'll be studying or post-polytechnic opportunities - we'll answer them all!

Oh. Eh... So I can't go?
... YES you can go. But you need to accompany your parent (i.e. you can't go alone, your parent must accompany you. Hence the name [PG], get it? Hyuk hyuk hyuk). Bear in mind that this seminar is targetted at parents more so than students, so there might be questions you parent will ask that might embarrass you, like, "My child still needs me to read him a bedtime story before he can sleep. Will he fit into the Polytechnic culture?"

Frayon: Oi. You so obviously were referring to me right?
Fanning: I was, but noticed I didn't mention any names. Thanks for coming out and admitting it for yourself.
Frayon: .... dammit.

Solid as Bone,
