Hi all,


Counting down.... :imcool:

I think I am more excited and terrified than my gal.

Happy New Year, everyone!

hi everyone,


two more weeks to start of school... so excited.

from what I know, they can wear their pe attire for the whole day until pri three onwards where they have to change.

I bought school shoes from kiddy palace for my girl. I do not
like the ats letters on her shoes. finally got one Mary Jane look alike for her.

does anyone know how to get water proof labels that could stick permanently on cloth material like socks, school shoes, belts? without sewing?

does anyone know when is their annual health checkup? which month? got to prepare girl mentally for immunization....

happy holidays...

Hi Mummy-oan,


I have tried to look for a suitable student care around ATS.

Could only find the following information.
Hope it helps.
I have no idea if they are good.
I am still scouting for a suitable BSSC for my gal next year.

Red School House
@Midview City
(peeped at the facilities, looks more like preschool rather than student care)
approx $400 plus (if i remembered correctly), need to add a certain amount if it is full day student care.)

Umbrella Camp (think i have left out one word…)
@Midview City
(very expensive and specialise in chinese enrichment classes; high tech facilities like interactive whiteboard in a room)
approx $620-680 for half day student care, add $20/day for full day.

CherieHeartsNurtureLoft
@Midview City
$510 for full/half day student care
(new, huge, include infant care and preschool services, can accept only 8 students per day for student care section)

CABCY (I think I have remembered the name wrongly… Hmm)
@Blk 444-445-446 around there… Oops cannot remember address now.
(pretty small and ‘old’)

Any other mummies or daddies could advise here?
Thanks.
Looking forward to the Parents Familisation Day and Orientation Day.

Thanks! :thankyou:

Hi Parents,


Do you have any information or comments about the Red Schoolhouse at Midview City near Aitong Pri?

Looking for a student care centre near the school. Thanks.

most schools will conduct little assessments (english, math, mother tongue; written or oral (like teacher read instructions, kids write/say answers)) for kids during orientation.


purpose should be for identifying pupils who need learning support from the school learning support programme and not for grouping them into ability classes. and later to track the pupils’ progresses in learning based on these orientation/entry tests results and any other bite-sized school/moe-based assessments carried out throughout the year.

understand that MOE strictly does not allow any schools to group pupils into ability-based classes for English and Math lessons in Primary 1 and 2 unless special permission has been given on case by case basis…

hope this helps.

Hi ayl0212,


My girl is going to Aitong next year. I live in Buangkok. Will you be putting your child in childcare? Any school bus arrangement?

Thanks Miaoster and Meiah!

Saw on the school calendar that the P1 orientation 2011 is on the last day of school in November. Hmm a weekday. Anyone knows the time and if my child has to come along?



@kola. you are welcome.

Contact time is a common meeting time for both AM and PM teachers with P and/or VP.


Hope this helps.

I have checked out a nearest before-after-school-care based on one comment on this thread… at blk 443. opposite to midview industrial area. you can drop by there and check it out. quite small …
