hi Winnie n Joyce...great to meet u all today...how's ur son's first day??...


i was very please tat my son form teacher has requested us to bring most of the books including Art n materials to be kept in class so as to lighten the sch bag load...i really applause tat...

she oso gave us her office direct line n told us we can call her as often whenever we need to clarifications....

but one thing i felt stress was she hopes tat we parents can further support her by preparing our son for the core subjects before hand so tat her lessons can go on as smoothly as possible...

p



pls do share wif me

Hi Chickenlittle,
My son's form tr also gave a list of activity n ex books, files to be handed in but no Art materials as yet,I also hv her direct line but she didn't say anything about preparing our sons for the core subjects.......she's more into discipline...to pay attention n not to talk when the teacher is talking :boogie:

Hi all,

Glad to see that the new P1s are settling in Since my DS doesn't come in until 2013, just wondering what the class sizes are in 2012? Are all the classes full up, and did they cut numbers? Are there lots of foreign students?

Hi tootsieroll,
I think most classes hv around 30 students(max). My son's class has only 29 if I'm not wrong. There are a handful of Chinese nationals and Filipinos in his class.....

Thanks for the info WD

Feeling a little more reassured now, since my son will unfortunately only qualify for Phase 3 - non Singaporean, even though his mother is born and bred here :xedfingers:

ChickenLittle,
The spelling will start Week 4. My son's spelling is every Friday ,so his first spelling is on 27 Jan.
No, I didn't go for the CCA Day as I had to attend my dd's Sec 1 orientation later that evening.
Btw,have you bought the social studies small readers n the student's folio yet?

[chickenlittle]

Winnie, i only left social studies folio…popular staff told me stock will give to sch first so she advise to get from sch book shop…

[wdiong]

AS stands for assembly. As for the other two.it did not appear in my son’s timetable. Instead he has FTGP - Form Teachers Guidance Period ,first period every Friday.
