Hi,


Anyone want to sell their Yr 5 or Yr 6 books or notes please PM me. Looking for Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Lang and Lit, Econs books/notes. Time flies and my boy is in yr 5, so looking for books. :thankyou:

Time flies, it is soon end of the year. ACS (I) has been great place to be and my DS has had a very fulfilling one year …

HI all


my eldest ds is taking psle this year and yes, we have applied for dsa already. NUSH and NJC respectively. nush no chance liao since he didn't even make it for the camp. waiting for njc results but i don't have high hopes really. there is an interview portion which i think will be too tough for him....
so, being the type that likes to plan ahead, i am thinking of what other better schools are there.

njc cut off point 4 to 5 pts, is this the cut off point to get into the JC to do A levels? my time was not so low leh and i am an ex njcian !

of course, if his \"O\" results are good enough, i will consider better jcs but if not that good ,then the affiliation will help, right? then again, i think i am thinking too far ahead.....

my son's teacher never gives us an \"estimate\" t score for my child. i guess that will put too much stress on parents plus child and based on what, can the teacher come up with the estimate!?

Hi,

Just remember that after the PSLE scores are out, there is a chance to apply again to NUSH and also many students do transfers out of their DSAed schl and there are tons of appeals going around. So if ur ds did not get thro' DSA, its really OK. Just focus on the PSLE results, with a high PSLE score any school is within his reach ...

Hi,


There is a talk on April 17th At ACS (I) Lecture theatre 4. The talk is on : The problem with Parents (teens). Sounds interesting and the speaker is a clinical psychologist with many years of experience. Maybe we will get an insight into our DS's perspectives of growing up .

My son had an encounter again. This BG came up the bus 156 at MacRitchie (he was not on the 156 bus when my boarded it at RTC), came beside my son (who tried to stand further away unsuccessfully) and started blowing into his hair again. My son was frozen with fear and could not even shout out loud. My son acted as if he was going to get off at the next stop, and noticed the BG taking out his own wallet as if he was going to follow suit. At the next stop, after another boy exited, my son waited for a moment, and jumped off at the last minute so that the BG could not follow. He was successful. He waited for the next 156 bus and boarded. But to his horror, after the bus had travelled a few stops, he saw the BG waiting to board this bus! He immediately got off the bus at the same stop. He was crying at the bus stop when the mum came to pick him.


Police report made and actions have been planned out.

Gosh !!! Poor child - make sure u have a good talk to ur DS and maybe try and get an adult to pick him up from school for the next 2-3 days. Maybe if the BG sees it, he may back off. Please re-assure ur boy that he is not alone in this ordeal. I can feel ur anxiety as a parent ...

Muffins:

Yup, and to top it all off, I have an immensely bad stomachache now, and I'm not sure if I can go to school tomorrow. Hey, wait a minute. :idea: I may not need to go to school tomorrow if this keeps up! :evil: :rubhands:

Hope u r feeling better ...
