CNA938 Rewind - Week 1 in Primary 1: Big school, big feelings

It’s the first week of Primary 1 — and for many families, it’s equal parts excitement and meltdown. Andrea Heng and Susan Ng speak to parents Ken Lejtenyi and Tiffany Ang about new routines, separation anxiety and after-school exhaustion. Plus, Adrian Lim, Family Counselling Psychologist breaks down the behavioural flare-ups that often show up now: clinginess, tantrums, bedtime battles, tummy aches and sudden “I don’t want to go”.  share practical coping tips for the school run, emotional regulation, and when it’s time to seek extra support.
