        Not many Rgps students go to student care centre, except perhaps for some lower primary (p1, p2).


        Because when come p3 onwards -
        Cca (s) step in, plus sometimes your child may need to stay back after school, for certain school activities. So, student care not necessary, from p3 onwards. After attending cca or certain school activities, the students will just go home direct.

        In fact, come 2016 once all primary schools in singapore implement \"single session\" nation wide -
        Our school will start introduce new activities, for our Rgps pupils to stay back, after school - for all p1 to p6 pupils. As to what kind of new activities to introduce, the committee still planning now. Eg : maybe let students pick up some core, essential life skill set, to equip them when they grow up, work in society later.

        When 2016 come -
        even p1 and p2 may not even need student care centre anymore.
        In the afternoon after school lessons end, we want to find new activities, to occupy them.

        Hi Jacjac,

        On 4 jan 2014 (Saturday) p1 orientation @mount Sinai :-
        You may stand outside the p1b classroom.
        While form teacher is busy inside the class getting all 30 p1 students to get to know one another, introduce themselves one by one, you may also get to know who are the p1b parents ? They will be standing outside the classroom, peeping in now & then to see how their daughter is doing, inside the class.

        Get to exchange contact phone number with some of these p1b parents.
        It comes in useful, ESP when u need certain school info during term time, from p1 term 1 to 4. Many p1b parents are from phase (2a1 and 2a2). Since you're also one of them, all of you have something in common, there is much to yak about, to share. Happy networking, πŸ™‚ all your kakis are there πŸ™‚

        What time is the orientation on 4 Jan 14? Is it all P1 together?
        Very excited for an always blur parent like me...

            2013 p2 (born 2005) -

            Total got 9 classes (270 pupils).
            Each p2 class had around 30 pupils.

            But when move up to next year 2014 p3 -
            Reshuffle, become around 40 pupils per class (no more 30).
            total - how many 2014 p3 classes ?

                What time is the orientation on 4 Jan 14? Is it all P1 together?
                Very excited ...
                On 4 jan 2014 (Saturday), at mount Sinai :-
                All p1 parents to be seated inside the school hall, by 9 am.

                Bring your child, right to the front of the school hall.
                Because The 9 classes of p1 form teachers (from 1a to 1i), will be standing there, right in front.
                Your child will sit according to her class, on the floor -
                In Two by two. As everyone wait for all other p1 parents to arrive, your child can sit down, mingle around & chit chat with her new friends, her new classmates. Children at this young age make friends easily πŸ™‚

                When 9 am starts :-
                Our principal (mrs yue) will go up the stage, to address & give a very warm welcome to all 2014 p1 (freshies & parents) into our school.

                After this, the form teachers can bring their students down, into their respective p1 classroom. Form teachers have activities already lined up for them, in class.

                Parents remain inside school hall - entertained by the various cca groups, put up by the students, who had been training hard for a long period, in preparation for this p1 orientation great day ! There will be singing by choir, Chinese cultural dance performance arts, rhythmic gym sports team, band, etc. sit back, relax enjoy show time !

                After the show end, parents can go down to their child's respective classroom, fetch their girl. If you have any concern, this is the best time to speak to your daughter's form teacher. Also, do make new friends with your child's classmates' parents. It is good to exchange handphone, share tips, yak, find new kakis. They will all be hanging around, just outside the classroom.

                On 4 jan 14 (Saturday)
                Only p1s are involved. Because the other level (p2 to p6) orientation are held earlier, before 4 jan. p1s are the last group of orientation.
