        Hi Imaginary,


        The duration is 30 mins. 😄

        Imaginary:
        How long is their recess time?
        West Spring Primary School:

        Dear tenko and tong2,

        With all schools eventually transiting to single session, the start times of schools may then be later so as to allow children more time to sleep and hence wake up a little later for school in the morning. So your child will now be able to get a few extra winks in the morning and be better able to learn & focus in school.

        The recess time will be around 10am and pupils will not have lunch in school, unless they choose to do so of their own accord after school dismissal. 😄

          Hi West spring,


          Will there be designated place for parents to pick up their children who are not taking the school transport home? Will it be like canteen or porch area? Will parents be informed during orientation day? Will teachers be escorting the children down or they need to go on their own? if it’s former, how long will the teachers be doing that…first week only…? Sorry for the long list of questions…

            Is there any limit on how many persons are allowed to accompany the kid on the first day of school? I was wondering during the orientation day, if one kid is to accompany by parents, it will be 210 x 2 = 420 adults and 210 children = 630 people. Worst, if we there are helpers, grandparents, sliblings to follow… It will be a big crowd, i hope there will be traffic control on the first day of school.


            As for the school opening and dimissal time, I am supportive of the school to start 745am or even later so that children have enough sleep before starting school. The break time should be in between so that they can last till 1.30pm. Those children catching school bus back may consider to buy some or bring some snack to eat on the bus when hungry.

                Dear luvmum,

                There will be a designated place for parents to pick up the children and the information will be given during Orientation Day. West Spring teachers will bring the children down for dismissal daily.

                  Dear Tenko,

                  Pupils are allowed to bring packed lunch. One thing to note is that we strongly recommend healthy & balanced meals.
                  The school will share the details on the teachers on Orientation Day.
                  We will start the parent volunteer group towards the end of Jan.
                  The dental clinic will be set up in 2014. The dental nurse will also be giving a briefing for all parents on Orientation Day as well.

                    Dear Starkids,

                    We have not put any limit on the number of adults on Orientation Day. Thanks for pointing out the potential high traffic on that day.

                      Have the school decide on the lunch break time from 6 Jan onwards?

                      Understand 2 & 3 Jan is from 945am to 1045am.
