environment is ok. as sahm tan points out, they are focussed on character building. on academics,i think it is quite alright. my kids dont have very much homework (i hear this is teacher dependent). still in blissful existence but bracing for mid-upper p level next year.


and as a wise lady told me, we as parents know our kids best and we can influence if they do well or not. no point looking at top students in other years if we do not provide a conducive environment for our kids to study.

and yes, if under phase 2b, shoukd be ok. phase 2c, you will need all the luck you can get (even if under 1km)

Thanks for the replies hquek n sahm_tan.


should I start PV now? How does pv work; you will get it once apply?

I didn’t know that PSLE results are no longer disclosed. When did it change?

Actually my husband joined hokkien Huey Kuan two years back hoping to get into their affiliated schools through p2b. But seems like p2b is always in red. And recently SHHK put up a notice on pv scheme yet it is not guarantees that there will be recommendation letters for p2b.

I stay within 1k of hw n St. Andrews. I believe he should be a better choice.

My boy's books, YS,were misplaced and lost in school twice. Or would rather say, stolen.... Don't know nowadays how parents and teacher teach...

My child’s new storybook bought from the recent book fair was also missing. Bought during recess time and he left on his class table. Told him to ask classmates and the book appeared after few days. You can also ask form teacher to ask the whole class.

[jershejos]

My DD teacher’s mobile was lost in class.

[SAHM_TAN]

So many cases, reported to tr?


If parents suspect stolen, should email to tr and cc to P.

dd1 told me her classroom is locked during recess. Is this done for other classes too? If not can suggest.

[reiner]

ya. my girl told me the clasrm will be lock during recess so she put the books under the table yah, even her chinese n maths textbks yah… strange was that her textbks were still under the table but her story bks were lost… got my girl to tell Tr abt it… but we still gotta paid yah since its my girl fault to leave the bks there, no take good care ( no ownership attitude bah)… so from that day onwards, she no longer leave any bks under the table… but she still complains, y still gotta bring back the textbks since Tr will use them everyday… arrgh!!! haha…

classroom locked still got things go missing?

Did the teacher or staff from HWS have any comments about it?
If there is no follow up wouldnt it encourage more such behavior?
