In some schools, there are short performances during

orientation like sports, cultural or club CCA varieties...
From here the children and their parents have an idea
of the many options they have should they be interested
in any of the CCAs offered by the respective schools.

In such performances, they garner the strength of the
current students in the school who can showcase the
particular CCA best.

baby2momma:

wow! $1 in P1..... i contemplated $0.80 but hubby said

very miserable and also if we give him $1, we can let
him learn how to budget..... do u think kids tat age able
to budget??? :?

is the food in DLS canteen pricey??? i heard fm my nephew
fm unity PS tat their school sells a bowl of fishball noodle with
two miserable fishballs & a couple of slices of fishcakes for
$0.50....am just wondering how many bowls of noodles
my kiddo must eat in order for him to be full....sigh.
or prob they will spend their time in the playarea playing
i/o eating la....

yes....heard many friends complaining about how kiddos
love to spend $$$ in the bookshop ....

We give our son $2 a day and he mostly come back with $1.30 back. If I'm not mistaken, the fishball noodle is 70 cents and chicken rice is $1.

My son just finished P1 from St Ignatius. Language is quite OK for him but he struggled in his math. Sigh… My dad is coaching him and has been giving him papers from other schools to try but he still flunk his math in this final semester. Need to prepare him better for P2. Any advise?

Need to work on his foundation.
Must see whether he actually understands all the basics..
Like operations... ie. simple addition and subtractions below 100.
Early multiplication via grouping sets.
Reading time...
Number patterns...
Understanding the works of problem sums...

In first 6mths of P1 they will do almost the same like what has
been done in P1 but the numbers get bigger. Problem sums will
grow from 1 or 2-step questions to 3-steps in Primary 2. Which
Maths Textbook is your boy using?
