Hello,


DS1 is in P1 at the moment. As I'm planning on applying for DS2 for intake 2015 and looking back at the last few years, Phase 1 is normally on the 1st week after the June school holidays. According to MOE, the elder sibling will be given the application forms for DS2's application. Could someone enlighten me on when this form will be given out and returned? Is it before the Jun holidays? Cos it is likely both parents will be traveling 1st week after the June holidays. Tks.

PS. Can a grandparent apply in place of the parents?

I remembered they issue the forms in late Apr last year.

Is it a practice that all form teachers will send emails to parents to update on the happenings or impt things to note?

it all depends on individual teacher.....

When my elder DS was in P1 last year, the form teacher would email us on every Fri, even on the first week of school, whereas my younger DS in P1 this year, I've already received 3 daily emails and photos from the form teacher.

So it's really depend on the teacher style.

We stay pretty far from MSHS (Yishun) so we are resigned that our son will be first to get picked up and last to get sent home. Regarding food, we pack some food for him in a lunch box and he eats it during the ride home when hungry.


So far he hasn't really given much feedback about his first day. Maybe us parents of 1D boys can share what information we know.

btw, my son is Nathan Wong (1D)

Ha.... my DS is also Nathan..... but he's from 1C..... and there's another Nathan in his class.....

[quote=\"chuagr\"]Hi,


My son is due for P1 registration nxt yr (2015 intake) and hopefully he can get into MSHS. Appreciate if any mummies can advise on the following:

1) Is the school single or double session? What time does school start?
Single session. 7.30am.

2) Do the boys take Higher Chinese from P1? Is Higher Chinese elective or a compulsory subject in MSHS?
Yes, think its compulsory.

Thank you in advance for any kind response.

Thank you!

Any parents have any idea if it is necessary to enroll the kid in Chinese enrichment to prep for Higher Chinese?[/quote]My kid do not have any foundation in Chinese. Hence, he's kinda struggling with his P1 Chinese lesson. So no choice enroll him for tuition, till now, he's still struggling......
