Thanks, MMM. Think tomorrow I also better call the school. Don't have phase 2A to fall back on so better be safe.

Actually, I was just worried if due to some human error/ miscommunication along the earlier process that led to the omission. So thought it's better to double check with the school. Not fun to find out that the child has not obtain a place in school after 2C. :yikes:

MMM, I finally remembered to call the school to check and they confirmed my DS2's name is there. They said they just keyed in the names yesterday so need some time to send out the confirmation slip.

I wonder if the 125 applicants at the end of phase 1 day 1 for MBS is the final number. Just curious... will keep a lookout for it tonight. I assume most schools should have gotten phase 1 applicants before june hols.

Usually the number at the end of the day should be quite accurate one right. Seems like this year got lesser applied under phase 1.

Does anyone have any idea what is retelling stories? Will the school be preparing them on it?

[chasingjelly]

No MBS parents in this thread anymore?

Haha, this thread has been pretty quiet lately. Guess everyone is busy.


By the way, my boy has drafted 2 stories so far for submission to his teacher. My understanding is that they will draft all the stories (4 i think) and choose 1 to retell. I trust the school is preparing them for it. Our part is just to perhaps help them edit the draft a bit here and there, if we wish to and also to help them reherse at home with the actual retelling (just like we usually do for their show and tell).

For my dd’s class, they only started today and they are pairing up for this assessment. Is this the case for other classes too? I am pretty upset because everything is so last minute. I can’t even edit it as it is a teamwork.

[7788]

it’s individual work for my boy. he touched up his 1st story draft over last, last weekend and submitted to his teacher last monday. he did his 2nd story draft over last week and submitted to his teacher yesterday. different teachers adopt different approach perhaps. not to worry, i believe the teachers will help them edit their work.

oh dear… I don’t see my DS doing anything regarding this. I better check with him tonight.
