      My niece p6 this year. My sister has started her on headstart program with a tuition centre in p5 and she has done well in her p6 to be able to DSA through academic. Thus, I should think a headstart is necessary in our opinion. šŸ˜„

        Hi sun sun sun,

        Pls share the tuition centre for the headstart.
        Which sch did your niece successfully DSA into? Do they prepare them for DSA?
        I've already enrolled my DS for some headstart camps in Dec as my colleagues told me that P6 topics will be taught a very fast pace within 5 months. If kids learn some P6 topics during this holi, they should be able to understand faster and do more challenging problems when term starts, right?
        I'm a bit kanchiong cos I can't teach him myself.
        Tried teaching him when he was in lower pri, but he got more wrong cos I taught him wrong methods, keywords, etc.

            Hi SydneyBB and Steadyberry
            My niece DSA into St nicks via academic. I checked with my sis, the school will consider the grades for all subjects. And there will be an interview and essay. Think the centre provided some coaching sessions for DSA. I will pm you the tuition centre, SydneyBB šŸ˜„

              Thanks sun sun sun.


              I'm shortlisting the sch for DS. Hope to do DSA but my DS is like \"why bother?\".

              I saw this list for Secondary Schools' Open House in Nov 2015.
              http://edumatters.sg/secondary-school-o ... ates-2015/
              Hope I can bring him to some sch and he can have a dream sch to study hard for.

                      Hi


                      I would to ask those parents kids whom had done the PSLE,

                      i am thinking of sending my daugther for chinese Preparatory Class in Nov/ Dec at Hua Cheng, want to know does this type of short class help? some centre offer PSLE camp thing.. does all the help? Is it really necessary as it's not cheap.

                      They say that it will provide them the tips to PSLE????

                      Please advice.
                      i'm not a parent but my psle preparation classes are actually not *that* necessary. i haven't gone through any psle prep classes whatsoever, but i didn't have any difficulties that were too big during psle. however, if you think your daughter is too weak (in terms of class standard/falling behind peers) academically, maybe these classes will benefit her.
