Hi

Any idea what CCA does the school will have?
Hope that they will have Robotics as CCA.

Hi, my son is very interested in robotics too. I really do hope they have this as CCA.

Hi...I came to know that the student care for next year will no longer be Pro-teach. Anyone knows more information on that? I thought the Pro-teach only starts it's operations with ALPS in mid this year. Why are they being replaced in such a short period?

i spoke to the VP during the registration window about SCC.
She didnt explicitly mention it but she say that ALPS is throwing the tender out for SCC. They are looking for vendors whose curriculum is align to the school's and their vision as well.

so i am assuming here that ProTeach didnt quite meet the mark on that aspect.

btw, the VP did advise against sending our kids to SCC if our daily routine permits having them at home after school. She said that the role of the SCC is not to provide 'additional' or 'enrichment' classes. She mentioned kids at this age should spend the remaining time after school, away from another classroom. There are a lot of those little teachable moments outside of classroom for them.

Thank you Sadistmy for your opinion.

just got the confirmation from the school bus operator.


my son attending P1 next year.
Pick up at blk 88 (redhill close) 7:05am and drop off 2pm same place.

i would like to know how parents manage their kids on the first few days in school with regards to showing their kids the pickup/drop off point near home and in school.

i am assuming parents would bring their kids to school on their own the first few days and then take the school bus once their kid is familiar with the locations and procedure for waiting for the bus ride home?

The bus operator told me that the teacher will help out and guide the child to queue up for the bus.

Hmm the pick up time at Blk 77A (opp market) is 6.45am, quite a big difference from RH Close. Find 6.45am too early


But have signed up 2 way first and see how..

Yup first 2 weeks will send him to get him familiarized

Hi, thinking whether to let him try out school bus on 2nd Jan. as we only allow 2 days inside the school and my hubby will be there earlier to see whether he follow the procedure and after he board the bus from my place, then i rush there to meet my hubby for the orientation. wonder how parents check if we only start school bus 1week later. any advise.
