        Can be any black shoes but socks must be NC ones (bearing \"NC\" on it). My son has been wearing non-NC Velcro black shoes for past few yrs.

            my kids have been wearing the NC shoes since P1 (not knowing how to tie shoes lace). Somehow, it force them to learn how to tie gradually. :evil: :evil:

In fact the shoes are very durable and when eventually my children outgrow the shoes, the shoes are still in very very good condition given my children wear them for almost 2 years plus me scrubing the shoes every week

                  Dear Parents,


                  My gal will be attending primary 1 in Nan Chaiu next year, 2016. I would like to check out more details on their curriculum:
                  1. Is the school teaching higher chinese for primary 1?
                  2. Do the school teach accordingly to their text books (issued by MOE) or they have their own set of internal textbooks?
                  3. Is there any thread that I can know more about the curriculum for primary 1 in Nan Chiau?

                  I know I am KS, but can't help worrying..

                  thanks in advance πŸ˜‚

                    Hi, the school will be using higher chinese textbook for p1 and p2. Actually i am not sure of the difference between normal and higher chinese textbook in p1 and 2 since my children have been using higher chinese textbooks.

                    As for textbooks you can buy from off the shelf from popular if u do not want to get them from the pacific or school bookshops. But different schools have different textbooks so if u want to get the pass down books so check out if they are using the same books

                    U can check out the curriculum at the school website but do prepare for at least 2 to 3 bite size tests for each subject per term.so that means about 8 to 10 tests for the 4 terms for p1.so before each term is over ,the schedule for the tests for the following term will be out. Can be quite tiring for parents cos need to revise with them constantly

                      NC is using HCL textbook for P1 to P4, but for P1 & 2, no difference in tests/exam for all 10 classes. From P3 to P4 (10 classes reduce to 8), the textbook same for all classes, except for top 3 classes, they will take an additional HCL paper (harder but shorter, include a compo in different format) in addition to the 4 subjs. HCL paper's results are graded as Distinction (80 & above), Merit and Pass, equivalent to 3, 2 & 1 point in PSLE. For P5 to P6, then there will be separate textbooks for HCL classes (think only 3 classes) and normal Chinese classes. In terms of exam papers, these HCL classes basically has an additional day for the HCL papers.

                        Do note that HCL at p3 onwards are conducted after school hours from 2pm to 3pm per lesson per week. Normal chinese lessons during school hours
