About Kervyn Chong Since young, Kervyn shows great interest in hands-on things. But unfortunately he was unable to talk and communicate with anyone. After some childcare centres unable to accept Kervyn into their centre, finally I brought my son to see a specialist, but he's unable to find out any problem with Kervyn and he told me to be patience as some kids took longer to talk. After he reached seven, I could not enroll him in Primary School due to his speech problem although I did brought him to Juliet Mccully Speech Training Centre. Finally I brought him to KK Hospital for a checkup and the doctor told me that he had to go to a special school due to autistic. As a mother I was unable to believe this but as a Buddhist I had to accept the reality. After a short while in Grace Orchard School (Special School for Autistic) he shows great improvement in his speech. As I remembered very well, I did come across Play Creation near Katong place, I began to look for it to enroll my son to help him improved even better. Finally I found them behind my estate, I was in joy as I was looking for them. Immediately I called up and have a chat with Auntie Theresa, she was very helpful and I began to enroll Kervyn in Play Creation in no time. My son shows great interest in Play Creation. He has thus improved tremendously not only in his speech, he even can communicate. What a great joy and happiness! After all the hardwork..stress and patience I been thru, it bears fruit! At Grace Orchard School, he's awarded with Best Conduct in his class, and Most Outstanding Pupil in ASD(Autism Spectrum Disorder) 2005, not only that he will be promoted to MLD(Moderate Learning Difficulties) in 2006.! I take this opportunity to thank the patience and encouragement from Grace Orchard School teachers and also Play Creation, Uncle Gary, Auntie Theresa and Joelyn. Felicia Chua 1th December 2005 |
