Hi all ... a silly question but do you let your DD wear shorts under the skirt ? DD hates wearing shorts under so she doesn’t but she has been coming home recently telling me that the white skirt is too translucent and ppl can see through the skirt :yikes: I checked yesterday and it’s really very obvious, even with light colors ! Wat should I do if she is really against shorts ??

Try safety pants.

For this year’s P1 registration, balloting is required for old students under Phase 2A2!

Don’t think this ever happened in recent history. I guess this is partly due to the fact that the overall enrolment number has been reducing as well.
All the best!

Hi, any parents know if the homework board is still being updated? It is extremely empty. I wonder if the teachers are still updating or really no homework and still so relax? I randomly looked at the P6 classes and they too, have very little work. Oh my goodness! Kind of strange and worrying because it is already Semester 2. My P5 told me most of her classmates also already completed in class but homework that can be completed in class in between lessons is not a homework at all.

My kids' HW boards get updated everyday. Usually if the kid cannot complete the work on time during curriculum time, then they will bring the work home.

In today P5/P6 level briefing, I am able to understand why HCL is not that important. If student A scores 253, student B scores 250+3 and both choose the same secondary school, student A gets the priority. Tscore is always the key determining factor. HCL points of +1, +2 or +3 only comes into play if the last vacancy is taking tscore of 250, then the +3 will be at an advantage. Otherwise, points are useless.


Many parents are impressed with last year PSLE results, snapping photos of the slides. According to p, this year P6 cohort is even stronger than their last year seniors, base on P5 performance. They are expected to produce even better results.

All eyes on this year P6 especially that 2 “I” classes, Innovation and Initiative. They have the best teachers for all subjects and the reasons are obvious!

From now on, it will be subject based banding, no more top classes.

There will be another round of fund raising for school upgrading. TOP is slightly delayed to Mar 19 so we are unlikely to move back in beginning of next year. DD1 is excited to take PSLE in the upgraded school.

Thanks for the sharing . Not trying to sound otherwise, but if kid has interest/flair/aptitude for HCL then go ahead if the other subjects can be managed.

Can share how do you know/who are the better teachers?

The P briefly mentioned about additional enhancements to the initial upgrading proposal, so would be happy to help with the additional funding request.

SInce there will not be any top class, wondering if the classmates would stay in the same class throughout the years but shift around based on the subject banding during lesson time. . A bit like tertiary education style where the class comes together for other non-graded subjects.

I thought take HCL means the children will be more exposed to the cultural aspect of the language. If kids can cope the stretch their potential but why must discourage?

Hi all


Hearing about the PTM feedback (I have no pretext as to how it was conducted previously), perhaps the school is trying to streamline the process?

In my case, I didn’t hear from my child’s Chinese teacher. When I logged into the system, all slots were fully booked.
However, the form teacher gave us option to either arrange for a phone conversation or meet on another day/slot.
Or, we could fill up the form to reflect the concerns since the slots in the electronic system cannot be secured?

Nonetheless I agree it would be good that we receive proactive feedback from the teachers regarding the child’s progress. Not sure if all teachers will leave their contact number to the parents to facilitate communication.

Hi

This is a recommended approach. Basically it using visual aids to help the kid better understand the instructions.

Some parents also label their household items e.g. sofa, table, chair to help the kid associate the word with the items and encourage them during talking.
