Received PSLE registration slip today!


DS did not pass to me when I got home. When he gave it to me 5 mins ago, he said\" mummy, just now I saw you in good mood, so don't want to spoil it and stress you\" ..

Haha, your boy is so thoughtful. In 6 months time, he'll say \"Mummy, just now I saw you in bad mood, so now I give you my results slip to make you happy!\"

Yes yes! I will definitely pray very hard for this!

irabbit,

it's just to inform parents the subjects which the school has registered the child for. A4 size paper. detailed one will be given later.

Chey, you scared me by saying need to acknowledge (prev post). I tot I missed out on something.

Hey irabbit, the letter from school accompanying the PSLE slip requested my acknowledgment as well as daughter's name.

He said teacher requested it. He needs to show it to teacher. I have some queries on the slip though, like how come certain components (think oral and LC) for one language are grouped together as 1 paper but not for the other language. Same for science - P1 & P2 are considered as P2. Am checking with teacher if this is correct.

:yikes: don't frighten me. i only checked details for correct spelling of her name in english and chinese as well as subjects school registered her for.
but in daughter's case, it is indicated that i will know if she has access arrangements only in may.

ca1 just over, now preparing for sa1...psle registration as well. it's like having small, medium and LARGE headaches presented all at the same time.

Hi,

Any parents know whether SA1 covers all PSLE syllabus in your school? Or are there topics yet to be taught by school and hence excluded from SA1? Thanks.

Depends on schools. Most schools will have only 1-2 chapters not taught, and SA1 is all topics from P3-6.

DS SA1 timetable is out also. No registration slip so far.


As expected his CA1 scores were lack-lustre. School teachers told him and other students in his CCA off for missing classes and producing sub-optimal results for CA1. Those who failed were even threatened by some teachers that they would be banned from playing in future matches.

But it is difficult to produce stellar results when you have a number of matches on exam days. Besides, no effort was made before the exams to help these kids who missed lessons and has less time to revise. After all they are playing for the school, no? IMHO yelling at them after the results come back is actually not very useful.

We have put this behind us. March hols is a time for rest, watching Zootopia and Kung Fu Panda 3 and hopefully doing a bit of work on the weaker areas.

Take care all and happy March hols!!!

for math, there are still 6 topics....i see some familiar ones like volume of cuboids...for science there is one more chapter 'interactions'.

Hi all, any of your kids having supplementary classes next week, during the school holidays?


My dd will be having Math lesson on Mon for 3 hours. I guess it is a consequence of the not-so-good CA results. I asked dd how about other classes. She said one of the other classes will be there for 4 hours.
