Oh My Gosh:

The mark is 35x for 4 subjects... didn't want to share the specific mark as it can be quite sensitive to all students. DS also know of 2 students of the same marks but one is in 5H and another 5I - I am guessing there are more than 1 students with the same cutoff mark, so they have to make a choice based on other factors.

How come your DS is so good at info gathering?
My DS is super boh chiap. Didn't even remember that the posting of class is out on 10 Dec. We just check this morning. And he couldn't tell who is the top 3 in his class. He only know that he is not in top 3. :stupid:

Hi hi,

My son will be transferred to Tao Nan next year and I just received a call from the school that he will be going to Class 2B. Wondering if there are any 2B parents here who can plug me into the class chat group pls. Pls PM me so that I can give you my hp no. TIA!

In TNS, the psg did a PCR (PARENT CLASS REP) programme and it was successful. The pcr is like the main contact person between teacher / school and thr class parents. We all hv a whatsapp group chat that connects and let parents know whats being done or needs attention in school/class.. there is a pcr from 1B/2014, the same pcr shld already hv the parents in the whatsapp group chat. Like my girls class, our group chat will continue in p2 since the kids move from same p1 class to p2 i.e. 1B to 2B. So u might want to get the pcr contact the class form teacher by email once u have the form teacher name ( shld only be confirmd by 3rd wk dec). Otherwise, email the PSG and ask. The PSG has the pcr contact.

Good luck.

Thank you bluebelt.I will contact thr PSG for the contact. May I know what does our kid need to bring on 1st day of sch for p2 pls. Thanks.

Just to check, I remember 2014 4A and 4I were the top mainstream classes. You mean all the good ones from 4A moved to 5I, H and G?

Bless

Yes, P4A and P4I were the top mainstream classes. So in 2015, they compile all the mainstream p4 students and allocate the top to 5I, then 5H, etc. DS grapevine is that 21 students from P4I are going to P5I next year. slightly lower number for P4A. So will be very competitive for P5I next year.

Haha... cos most of his friends share all the information very openly and start calling each other after class allocation is out. Your DS is very good, very focussed. Actually, I will rather DS spend more time on his books than with his friends.

The Parent Class Representative (PCR) might not have the parents' contact list for the class yet. The psg might take some time to compile the list and send it to the PCR. The class whatsapp chatgroup is usually created by the parents' ( most likely PCR initiative)... Not by psg.

Oic! Thnks nicnac!

Dear parents,


my girl is born in 2011. And from what i know, tao nan school does not accept PV anymore.

so we thinking of the hokkien huay kuan route.

Can i know how early should i join hokkien huay kuan and do i need to do volunteer work for the clan too?

Also when will hokkien huay kuan issue the letter of recommendation? I heard that the clan does not issue such letters for all members but on a case by case basis. So by when will they issue out the letter so that we will know if we have a chance at phase 2B?

Thanks a lot.

PS: I called up both the pri sch and the clan but they dont seem to say much.
