Estéema:

I have P5 & P6 汪 materials if anyone need them for your child. Pls pm me with your contact. Easier to WhatsApp, as I find it difficult s'times to send messages out.

Hi Esteema,
My DS tutor went MIA since June. I can't find any referred tutors to teach him since DS is P6 now. I saw your post. Could you share with me Wang notes for P5 & P6. TIA

Hi.


Any feedback of crumpler slingbag or haversack bag for PRI school. DC becomes more trendy so rejected to buy another Popular Haversack.

Any recommendation?

Just wonder if your child prepare for GEP round 1 test. My child’s teacher told them that they don’t need to do revision . So my child followed the teacher’s words faithfully and took the test unprepared, apart from the revision done during his SA1 in May… CA2 are HOlistic test.


I believe that GEP kids should be those natural gifted… Not mould to be one ( by going for GEP preparation class).

But minimum , the child should take the GEP test like any other SA1/2 exam, isn’t it?

Tks all for the valuable reviews.


For your info. Besta will hv a roadshow at MacPherson Pri school 23may 9-2.30pm. Sorry , I forgot the price quoted for the roadshow, vaguely remember it’s a few dollar cheaper than at Popular.

Any reviews for Besta All pass 2 and creative PX2101.


Tks

My girl just uses the fins sold at her club. Cheap. About $15 a pair. Or less.


My girl can do 400IMs nowadays. And her strokes have improved significantly.
She smiles when she is in the pool, which is very important. It shows that she enjoys it and not hates it.

Hi Wolfgirl and Swimironkids,

Tks for info. Is there any specific brand/model? Will checkout from mustafa too!

Adding to this thread. What the advices for newbie parent whose kids are going into competitive swimming?

How to help them overcome the laps swimming, at the same time the tough training wouldn't kill the swimming interest. :sick:

Any recommendation for swimming fins used for 7 & 8 years old kids?

Hi,


Does anyone know why there is no Parent Support Group in PHPPS? I reckon there're parents who will be able to help the school with administrative chores, such as maintaining / housekeeping the school website.

2013 term 1 has started and the school homepage is still showing 2012 term 4 calendar. Many other pages are still under construction since 2 years ago. I don't think they need a technical gurus to maintain and update the site. I just feel the website is a reflecting of the school - no pride , not organize, little communication channel available.

Even posting the online form was such a mess yesterday and stressful parent, like me was told by DS that I need to login at 4pm yesterday to get his preferred CCA as he was not selected last year. DS emphasized that I have to login on time cox vacancy is on the first come first serve basis.

Wonder wonder why ....?

It's not easy to enrol into PH, with competition getting tougher each year (new housing being built and all there). So if you're one of those parents who goes to the extent of shifting/PV etc to secure P1 priority, I can understand why you wished things could be smoother for your dc from the start.

Just like to suggest that you don't fret over the small stuff. There's quite a few days to register for CCA and I don't think it's a case of first-come-first-serve. In the bigger scheme of things, these hiccups will smoothen and resolve over time.

PH is a good sch; my ds loved all his chers without exception. Of course no sch is perfect, and there will be the occasional issues and 'malfunctions', and even unhappiness. But if we allow ourselves to take a step back, we'll realise that even [overcoming] these hiccups is part and parcel of the life skills our dc will acquire in their fledgling school life.

Hi FQW,

Do I sounded like complaining ? My post anxiety on the CCA registration may hv got into me.

Fortunately we don't hv to do PV thingy to get into PHPPS. Still thankful for that.

Maybe my \"England\" is not powerful that's why you may have misinterpreted my posting?

Guess these days, there's too many administrative tasks involved to run a school.... Poor teachers get rope in to do the admin instead of the core focus to teach and nuture the children.

I am wondering why the school don't get the \"PSG\" to assist in administrative stuffs.. I was told the school does not hv PSG.

Ps : Parent Support Group refers to parents of children currently studying in the school. Many other schools have such program.
