Endeavour Primary

[radiantmum]

Endeavour allows the parents to bring/fetch the kids INTO/FROM within the school compound for the 1st 3 days :celebrate: Principals and teachers have also been very tolerant and understanding of the parents' eagerness (to take memorable snapshots & videos) and anxiety and over-zealousness <KUDOS>


Very well organised - they had different strings tag to the P1 shoes to help the teachers to guide the respective students to the correct bus waiting area & exit gates. 1st 3 days they had recess food brought into the respective classes and will let the buddy accompany the child to canteen to buy food on the 4th day - - after the children are more well settled. Great strategy to filter parents from adding to the P1 canteen woes !

Would be good if the timetable has remarks for the abbreviations. Figured out what is MOE, SS etc - but can someone tells me what is \"CT\" class?

I think 'CT' is contact time. But am not sure what they do during this period. Will need to find out from my son.


I remember that when i was in primary and secondary school i also had this. That was more than 25 years ago. :lol:

Will be good if we could pass the textbook to the younger boys or girls studying in the same school.


But must be in good condition. Save cost.

Thanks cristlanne - yes you are right, CT = Contact Time. I must be from the older generation - never heard of that


& thxs for the pass book back to school idea - great suggestion!

Hi all.


I am "targeting" Endeavour Pri School for my pair of twins(born 2005). Staying within 1km. However, I am also eyeing on ChongFu and hope that my kids can get it there(DH is the SHHK member of 4 yrs but we stay >2km, and at the same also if CF too stressed for the kids).

Looking forward more and more sharing on Endeavour Pri School. It’s such a dilemma.

Just to check, does anyone know is there a place to download past year P1 test papers for practicing ?

Haven't been visiting this thread for quite a while and HI EVERYONE! great to \"meet\" you here.


enen - always great to have options isn't it?
psfong - twins? cool!
sethanon - found this link in other KSP thread earlier http://www.misskoh.com/?.

Summary of my kid's term 1

- homework - negligible (+ve and -ve depending on parents' expectations). Based on what DS shared with me, class ability range is pretty huge (from 15 marks to 100 marks for same paper).
- assembly talks cover topics such as diligence and perserverance, self awareness etc. DS is able to narrate the concept shared :celebrate:

- rotation modular CCAs after school once a week starting term 2 for students to have a taste of various CCAs eg ICT, music etc (with pre-paid lunch organized - thoughtful of them)

- teachers' blogs are pretty updated

- my DS form teacher called to check when he forgot to return the papers. & she was able to share with me her observations which were pretty accurate so far - - I thought that was quite a feat given that there were 30 students and not even end of term 1 yet.

Dear parents,


What is the mother tongue offered?

Is it Chinese and Malay only?

Please advice.

Thx :roll:
