how was the traffic this morning at Hillcrest?

Bad lol. Some buses were late.

A parent I know queue from 6.45 to get into Hillcrest. Got in at 7.05.

Oh dear! Btw for P1 tomorrow, parents can see them during recess, albeit behind barriers (lol). Can parents go in with the girls at drop-off time ie before 720 and wait at the canteen. Or will guard deny parents entry till nearer to recess time ie between 830-930, depending on class.
Any parent today went into the school?

At drop off, the teachers on duty will guide the girls where to go etc. parents are not allowed to loiter during that time. Imagine if there are 270 sets of parents there during drop off. It would be mayhem.

Last year, when my girl p1 we dropped off and were politely asked to come back afterwards during recess time.

Hi,


Any P3 parents here? The time table indicates that there is Science Lab lessons tomorrow for my girl. Any idea which book to bring for science cos there are 3 science books altogether and they did not indicate which one is Book 1, 2 or 3. Only the titles Interaction, Cycles and Diversity are reflected on each book. The class have not met their science teacher yet and my girl also does not know which book to bring.

Hi wyx, my girl is in P4 but I may have the answer for you. For Science Lab, the girls will be introduced to experiments and scientific methodology. No need to bring text books/workbooks. They will begin with Diversity first. Keep a look out for what the teacher has to say.

For first lesson maybe no lab, so bring Diversity just in case. (Diversity would take them beyond term 3 and last term they will do interactions i.e., mainly about magnets and materials).

Hope that helps.

Traffic was bearable today. DD was dropped off just before 7am. I saw that there were older girls to bring the P1s to their classrooms, which was great. It took a fair bit of time to get out of hillcrest tho...:)
