May I know what can we expect from the P1 orientation on 13 Nov? Do we need to prepare $$ to buy textbooks / uniforms etc...?? Can anyone help to advise me? Thanks :? :? :? :? :?

Minecrafter:

Switching to CL will NOT help since she is still the CL teacher. I am really contemplating to get my kid to switch to 5E or F, rather than letting this CL teacher kills my kid's interest in Chinese.

I bet u 'll like 5C, 5F CL teacher then.
5c: didn't reveal her hp even I asked her. She said call office. Nvr give feedback, didn't tell me my ds didn't hand in work n learn spelling. I only found out that my ds didn't hand in work when I try to file his worksheets for exam revisions since he has an almost empty red file. When I \"feedback\" to her abt this, she said p5 r big boys n so she don't chase after them, child must know how to manage time, she dont give deadlines, as n when e child finishes work, hand in. No deadlines!!! Oh yes, my ds has 100 marks for lesson 20 spelling after i found out that he had almost zero for all 19 spellings. I found out! So great, no calls or msg from her for 1 whole yr!
5F: teacher went for maternity leave n so relieve teacher. So great! I didn't hear anything from e teacher for 1 whole yr too! My ds failed his HCL n given a form to opt out next yr.
So u choose to change class?

2 of my ds r taught by your cl teacher when they r in p1 n p2. i know abt e way she 'chase' parents. But at least u know what's happening. U hv a choice to ignore her msg if I r busy, n pick up her advise when u hv some time to catch up. My ds did v well in CL under her. I 'll be glad to swop class w u.

Nonkiasu,

It must be triple times harder for you when you have to juggle 3 kids. Many parents say P5 is a great jump in standard, and they are not wrong. All the best for 2016. 1 more year to go before our kids say goodbye to primary school education.

Thks gabby. Best wishes to you n your ds too. Ya, I can feel e steam.
To add on my msg last nite (too tired to write). 5E CL tr on hospitalization leave for a while too. Hardly write compo. Nvr heard any feedback for 1 whole yr too! In short, i hv no hp from 3 cl tr. I dont even know their names. So wish to share tt 5d parent is blessed to hv a xiao on tr. If u r busy, just ignore her msg. Read only when free. At least u know what's going on in e class when u r free to read. Btw, her English is really bad. So don't b offended by her wordings or tone. Just read e context.

Dear non kiasu thank you so much. I guess it takes awhile to understand each teacher’s style and expectation.

Which schools are you looking at after psle? I am checking out the secondary schools in tampines but looks like our area, the kids still near to change bus. So far I have looked at temasek secondary (ard 45 min), ngee Ann (30 min)

Hi, Gabby. I am thinking of Ngee Ann if my ds can achieve that high cut-off point (ha, high to us). It has open house this sat. So you may want to check it out. Haven't think about 2nd choice yet. Got to find one with lower cop. Temasek good?
