I asked my kid do they see their principal and they say hardly....

So even the kid cant see her do u think parents feedback can get to her???

I always very puzzled with their homework. After finishing their homework, its always in their bags for weeks or some even the whole term!!!!
Does the teacher bother to collect back their homework at all and correct them?

Anyone having the same problem?

I as a parent has never seen the principal once this entire year when sending my kid to school. It may be just coincidence that she's not outside the general office area when I'm there. Maybe other parents can verify this based on their own experience, whether this principal is like the ex-principal who had always made an effort to be outside the general office to welcome students coming to school. I as a parent had always felt a sense of comfort and security with his friendly approach whenever I sent my elder kid to sch last time. But this feeling no longer exist now.

Don't think she practices that. Also never seen her welcoming the kids. The only time I saw her was when I made a complaint and when I saw her rushing to and back from meetings.

Hi been a silent reader thus far but feeling anxious now. My DS entering Pl next year and I did PV to get him in the school. The whole PV experience was bad. No transparency or coordination whatsoever. So I know the admin really can’t be efficient. I hope I made the right choice. But I guess APS is still the most vibrant of schools for boys in AMK. They do have more variety in CCAs and school events. Am I right? Do your kids take part or enjoy the CCAs offered? I’m hoping to let DS try brass band next year. Thought gymnastic is cool but he refused to wear leotard. Lol


Anyway attending the briefing later. Hope to meet more mummies!

Regarding the P. I saw her when I attended the Family Day. She was in the room, quite alone and yes I didn’t see her mingling with students nor staff. Sigh. I should have exited then huh?

Mystery of the Missing Prize-Giving Ceremony Photos

I just returned from the prize-giving ceremony… My kid was performing… Many anxious parents were trying to get as near as possible to the stage to snap pics of their kids receiving prizes… Mcee reminded parents there are professional photographers engaged to take pics of prize winners and performers… But get this… over the years, no offer has ever been made by the sch for parents to order any of such pics!!! Where did all the pics go? LOL…

Dear parents,

Are you looking for a tutor for your child/children?
I’m a teacher-cum-tutor with more than 10 years of teaching experience.
If your child is studying in primary school and requires tuition, feel free to contact me at 98 456 146 for a non obligatory talk.

I provide weekly or even daily remedial lessons or homework supervision and my rates are reasonable.

Thanks!
Mrs Lee

Am sure it's just an unfortunate coincidence, have seen the p going around talking to students myself. am quite sure the Anderson spirit n culture is still there.

oh when was that... 7 am? 1 pm? i don't see P around. Maybe only get to see her only Prize Giving Day. Even when there is forum for parents, only see VP but not P, P only \"appear\" when is time for her to present gift to the speaker and that \"disappear\" again. Even students also say that they don't see P.

think the Anderson spirit will be gone soon....

I can still remember my Pri Sch Principal who will stand infront of the whole sch every morning to give speech and discipline. Can feel his power!!! :rant:
