Yes, my dd also have a new timetable, I think they have some adjustment on the PE lessons.


My first thought was how come there are boys in their school swimming lessons? But after second thought, you should be talking about your dd private swimming lesson.

Sorry, yeah, weekend swim class

hi,


Anyone knows why there is a need for an updated Term 2 timetable for P1 & P2?

Initially I thought the new time table will only be necessary when they start their swimming classes during PE lessons (need to combine the PE lessons).

Since they will only start swimming in Term 3, why is there a need to revise timetable now??

Just curious.... :?

Tks

Rgds,

My dd timetable changed every term during her P1 last year too. This same thing for this year term 2, a new timetable again. I didn’t really ask the form teacher why. We just follow the schedule.

I initially thought it was for good use of time...then some of the changeovers (e.g., EL then MT, MT then EL then MT again) didn't make sense :?


ming, for P1, sometimes there's fun gym during PE. Have you compared the changeovers?

Hmm...haven't really done a major comparison....the only noiceable difference is that of PE will be on 3 consecutive days from Mon to Wed....Other than that...not realy much difference except for the re-scheduling of lessons....

Feel like asking the form teacher on the rationale for thse changes....but then don't know if the FT will feel me very kpo.....why others don's ask & only me ask.... :roll:

You still have one more option is to transfer her to NYPS if you want to aviod the hassle when the school is temporary relocated. Like what a friend of mine did to the dd at P3 (transfer to NYPS at P4) but the reason is to get ds in NYPS.

I am seriously thinking of that option! I'm also living in the Shelford Area. My girl does not like the idea of going to NYPS because she wants to graduate from the same school as her older sis.

Tough decisions eh, FireflyMom! But really, if the travel time is going to be long, it'd eat into their time, yah? :stupid: :stupid:

I know.. Not just the time. Imagine the traffic in the morning :stupid: If the holding site is really at the old SAJC location, imagine we have to fight with the traffic everyday - first farrer road then AYE :frustrated: :frustrated:

Dear Parents

My dd just joined RGPS P4 this year. I hv been ferrying her to sch every morning. Now that she’s more or less settled in, I thot of getting her to take the sch bus. Because we live in Hougang/Kovan area, she has to get up at 5am every morning to catch the bus at 5.30am. I don’t hv the heart to subject her to such morning tortures and I m looking at pooling students living in the same area to share a cab. If there r parents who are interested to explore this idea, pls feel free to call me @ 97347181.

Cheers

I guess the transfer was due to GEP. Why didn't you consider Rosyth which is much nearer to where you live? Perhaps you will have better chance if you ask around in the school.
