Hi, everyone.


My DD will be Pri 1 next year. Would like to know whether any parent going to stay in school for the first 3 days during the recess times. Since, the school had already arranged to bring the food to each classes.

I was thinking they are not coming down, then what is the purpose of staying in the school.

I popped by last yr during recess & indeed, will not get to c the kids. So there is no pt to hang ard.

I will still go for 1st day (regardless can see him or not).

Hi there! My boy is also in 1G 2011! Am surprised to hear that this is just \"temporary\" class for them here. Also thinking, besides school bag, wallet, phone card, what other items to buy before school reopens.

[quote=\"b2b3m4\"]According to a parent whose children is already studying in the school. The test conducted on our kids on orientation day was to assess whether they are on par with the rest. Usually if there is a letter to recommend to attend certain courses, it means the child is weaker on that subject.

DD is already taking ballet now. I've checked with her whether she wld like to take up dancing in school. She wasn't keen and prefer to continue to follow her teacher at Dancepointe.

Parents,
1. For a start, how much shld we give our kids as pocket $. Especially since the kids recess are already covered?

2. Do we need to give them a phone card?

3. Do we need to pack in all the 1st semster books?

4. Stationary: pencils, eraser, ruler, color pencils... anything else?

5. was there a handbook in our booklist or given on 1st day of school?

And just thinking if we want to get to know each other better. My DD is in Class 1G.
