  • Boy With Autism Went Missing At Childcare, My First Skool’s Outing

    Boy With Autism Went Missing At Childcare, My First Skool’s Outing

    Parents, do you have any bad experiences with the child care, My First Skool? It is so scary that the teacher only realized that the autism boy went missing after the boy was found at Yishun MRT station.

    ***

    This is what happen in my son school today (24 October 2017). School name is My First Skool (Blk 140 Serangoon North Ave 2).

    10.48am – I received a call from school teacher saying that my son is missing from school.

    10.53am – Yishun mrt staff called up saying that my son is there.

    Thereafter i rushed to Yishun and yes is really my son. Really thanks god he is fine. So after that i went back to school and i hope i can talk to the school principal and teachers nicely. But what they told us is really driving us crazy. Below is what the class teacher told us.

    10.15am – She bought half of the class students which is around 7 students to outside the class to water and clear the plants.

    10.30am – All students back to class.

    10.31am – She found that my son is missing.

    And by this time i go more crazy… I was thinking the timing is not tally. So i question back.

    Me : Yishun mrt called us at 10.53am and told us my son is there so is impossible he can took bus 73 go to Ang Mo Kio mrt then to Yishun mrt.

    Principal : Teacher please think carefully.

    Teacher : I maybe remember the timing wrongly.

    At this point i went really crazy and told them off. Please stop making up story! So you dun really know what time my son went missing?????? If now i cant find my son how??? What you going to do???

    All i ended the conversation with them.

    I know someone will ask why my son will do all this when he is big enough to know this is wrong. But please note he is an autism kid and he been in this school since toddler, principal and all teachers in the school know about his situation.

    And ya as a parents i did ask my son to say sorry to the teachers as it is wrong to run away from school.

    I seriously need thanks AWWA teachers teaching my son to remember my contact number if not i might not be able to find son and i might have lost my son forever.

    Thanks god my son is fine.

    Everyone who read this post please help to like and share. This can happen to my son it can also happen on other kids in the school. This is really unacceptable.

  • Netflix Shows Yishun In Stranger Things Promotional Video

    Netflix Shows Yishun In Stranger Things Promotional Video

    “Is Yishun cursed, simply unlucky or struck by something stranger?”

    These are the words accompanying a clip of Yishun, posted by American video streaming giant Netflix on its Facebook page on Wednesday (March 22) night.

    The clip, likely advertising the second season of its hit series Stranger Things, shows a Yishun MRT station sign against a background of the Upside Down, or a parallel universe in the sci-fi horror television series.

    A shadow passes by briefly halfway through the 11-second clip.

    Stranger Things, Netflix’s original supernatural series, stars 90s star Winona Ryder whose son mysteriously vanishes.

    The series has catapulted its young actors to stardom, including Millie Bobby Brown, Gaten Matarazzo, Finn Wolfhard, Noah Schnapp and Caleb McLaughlin.

    The 2016 eight-episode series received stellar reviews and ratings, and will be returning for a second season on Halloween this year.

    Netizens were amused by the post, which poked fun at Singapore’s northern Yishun town and the reputation it appears to have acquired as a seedy place where anything can happen.

    Wrote Facebook user Stuart Kuek: “Even Netflix is making fun of Yishun… time to build a wall around Yishun.”

    Jacq Lim called it “the Upside Down of Singapore”, while Yong Jian Lee wrote: “New show ‘Yishun Things’”.

    But not everyone was amused.

    Joseph Jo wrote: “Lame, not funny… been living here my whole life, wasn’t so bad like 10 years ago… who to blame?”

    The Straits Times in February wrote about the odd reputation Yishun has acquired for negative news. Reports about happenings in the area range from cat killings, murder, brothel raids and civilians trying to attack policemen with stun guns.

    But the made-up phenomenon is driven by media coverage and confirmation bias, experts said.

    Assistant Professor Liew Khai Khiun, from Nanyang Technological University’s Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information, said Yishun’s reputation boils down to “public imagination”.

    Nee Soon GRC MP Mr Louis Ng said there are both positive and negative news in every estate, “but a lot more people read the bad news”.
