A letter to the school:

After much thoughts and consideration, we have decided to withdraw Eu and Tien from your pre-school. The decision was made with mixed feelings. Eu joined the school when he was around 20 months, and as a full-day child, this place has been his second home ever since. He grew with the school, had many happy moments and learned many things. For that, I would like to thank all the teachers, aunties, uncle and you as well, for showering him with love and patience.

This is a dream pre-school which I believe most parents would very much want to enrol their children in. However, when reality does not match with dream, decision, difficult decision will need to be made.
