Ok take back the no spelling list thing. DD just came back with her spelling list for English.
The teacher attached a timetable in her handbook. And just as I suspected, Miss Eng is her chinese teacher only not for both English and chinese.
Just to confirm, they do not have any English Textbook right? -
funz: yup no text book for p1.. even for my P6.. carry less weight on their back
the only thg is my gal's PE is on 3 consecutive days
with only 2 sets of PE attire.. got to really wash & dry fast -
Dear all,
Wishing to seek your advice on CCA.
Anyone of you with girls participating in CCA during P1 and P2 ?
If any of your girls have joined swimming as a CCA, pls kindly share your experience, e.g. venue, is it conducted by an external trainer, the quality etc.
Since I have converted to part time working arrangement starting this year, thought of signing up my P1 girl for at least 1 CCA, 1st shortlist will be swimming, choir or dance.
Thank you

Mine took ballet for the first two terms then we dropped coz she had too much ballet commitment due to her ballet exam and performances, plus she complained that it was too basic.
Cultural dance, I hear is good too. But you may want to check out her interest first - they tend to stick better to a CCA if they are motivated that way. HTH. -

My girl joined the choir as CCA in P1 last year and she loved it. They performed during the P1 orientation in Nov last year... Would be continuing in P2 this yearDear all,

Oh btw my daughter is selected to be a stage leader this year and she is kind of both excited yet scared of it lol... She is stage-shy yet she cant help telling all her uncles and aunties about it hee...
And yeah there was a spelling list given out on 1st day already, but mine is P2 this year...
And her P1 buddy is bigger sized than her, just as I expected

Andaiz: ya man.. tx :).. juz remembered bt swimmg is compulsory.. yes yes.. that is fun !
CCA matters (swimg): Dependg how serious you want d child to be involved. Leisure or Competitive swimming. For leisure, can join the school CCA. If u hv intention to let her be in competitive swimming, then u shd enrol her both external lessons (like yesterday :)) & enrol her in school swimg as well. I tell u more in a bit.
Your child needs to be good to be selected in the sch team. So with double dose of trainings (in and outside sch) it's worth the effort. It is all abt \"units of training\". The more trg u get, the better. Get her to participate in external competitions with her pte coach. Naturally school coach will see her potential and ultimately will put her in the sch swimg team. I am sure u dont want to lose out with others who has advances to intermidiate levels.
Many of my frens doters in swimmg (IJ,KC & etc) gotten into MGS via DSA in swimmg. So def swimmg or individual sports are beneficial in long term. They need to have at least 3 yrs track record. So it's impt to be participatg in zonal & national competitions. -

Think your referring to Mdm Eng Lee Na. DD's teacher is Miss Eng Lik Boon.
