I bath my DD and DS since they are a few days old till they were 5/6 years old. But to the later time I only do washing the hair and spraying water while they scrub their body them selves. After that they got use to bath themselves

My DD will be doing 2014 PSLE, should start preparing from now

After waiting to see some proof myself, I could see that DS’s friends who are exempted from MT (Chinese) could easily get 240+ despite they are not strong in EMS.


These might be so called ‘unfair’ for those struggling (eg. my DS) to do CL for MT, but for those who are eligible to be exempted, you might want to apply for your DC to be exempted.

But for myself, when we decide not to take the option, I could see how tough my DS struggled and manage to pass the barrier. I’m very proud of him. He might not be in Singapore Best Schools but he survived the challenge and thanks too the CL teachers and tutor who nutured him with passion and patience.

Seasons Greetings…

I also miss 25hrsmaid. From my selfish perspective, she was active at the right time, just when I have to plan ahead for my son's P1 registration. She was busy dishing out advice to newbies like me. I remember every year she'll volunteer to update the P1 balloting chart.

Me too.... Miss 25hrsmaidbin the forum. Especially when come to choosing secondary school. She compiled and compare the cop each year...

The 2 point deduction at O levels for third lang only applies to Chinese, Malay or Arabic taken as a third lang.

Is the malay same as malay special program? Thanks

DD used to go to this school for Chinese Orchestra training last year. The students seem well-behaved. If I remember correctly, there may be a change in principal effective 2013. You may wish to check the public announcement of transfer of principals by MOE.

Current principle just posted end of last year

Anyone with information on the Chinese Orchestra CCA?

DD plays the Zhongruan while DS plays the Erhu. Wondering how they will fit in?

Hi, what would like to know more about CO? My DD plays yangqin.

Hi,


Do you think the school life in Singapore stressful? Do the kids need to take up lot of interest classes? Which country are you from? I just know that the syllabus is tougher than ours.

Regards

Hi, sorry for late reply. The school life is fine. We are from Indonesia. The syllabus is about the same for math and science.
