Thanks for the advice.


My gal is attending a Math enrichment centre which focus on Heuristics Math & logic problem solving. So far, we are satisfied with her performance. My understanding is the National Math Olympiad competition is only opened to P5 on onwards, I guess P3 would be too early to start drilling on MO.

Some other schools started in P2 Math Olympiad for their students.

I guess there is no need for her to attend MO at her level this year. Maybe you can register her for the course next year and if she is still keen, she can continue in P5 and take the NMOS then.

Hi Parents


Any of your kid attended the P3 Maths Olympiad training course recommended by the school? Can share your experience?

As my gal is already attending Maths enrichment class, I'm concerned that it may overwhelm her as the course is 1x/wk till Nov. Am undecided whether to register her.

Any form being gave out by the class teacher?
I did not see this in the monthly notification mail.

DS received a hardcopy notification. It states that the school has engaged an external training centre to conduct a Math Olympiad Training Course for P3 pupils who achieved an average of 90 marks and above.

IMHO, if your child is interested in Math, no harm signing him/her up for the course. The syllabus is not exactly the same as P3 Math.

DD who is in P6 has also attended Math Olympiad Training Course organised by the school at the beginning of the year found it quite useful. She said it was interesting though they may not be tested in PSLE. It is more for Math Olympiad Test...

Hope this helps.

Hi, would like to find out if the school provides lockers for the children to put their books? Planning to get a bag for my child who’ll be P1 next year. Any recommended school bag size? Thanks!

:congrats:

What a relief! You mind sharing what activities were you involved? If it is not convenient, please pm me.

So, do you plan to register your child with RMPS or still considering the other school?

BTW, RMPS has lockers for students. You may like to check with the General Office for more information.

Thanks Qms. We helped out with some admin work to complete the pv.

Oh my goodness. Just checked website. I think this year even phase 2b needs balloting.
I'm still too shock with the phase 1 figure. :gloomy:
