Hello mummies

Anyone knows how many PV does the school take in each batch? What is the ratio for PV, Catholics and GRC volunteers?

Thank you.

[HHMummy]

Different year, different quota. 13 PVs eligible for P2B this year and all got a place. Next year July if all fulfill the hours, will be 8 PVs eligible for P2B. Probably due to dragon babies registration year, quota lowered.

Thanks HHMummy!

Hi

I like to check if we opt for HCL at P5 level, does the kid need to stay back after school hours to attend HCL, or is it incorporated into normal curriculum time? If extra hours are needed after school hours, what are the timings like (for example the time and how many days a week)?
Thank you.

Fizz, she’ll need to stay back every Monday from 2.30pm to 4.15pm for HCL.

Although 2018 P5 timetable isn't out yet, but will be similar to current 2017 P5 timetable.
P5 and P6 Higher Chinese are not taught during normal curriculum hours, but taught After-school.


EVERY

a)

b)
Thursday
from 2.30 pm to 4.15 pm (solid 1 hour 45 minutes), our After-school enrichment is occupied by either :
IT Enrichment, Or Values-In-Action activities (eg: Visit Old-folks home, sing song to them) Or One of the Remaining 3 subjects' Enrichment (either P5 Maths / English / Science).


c)
either Wednesday or Friday : is occupied by Cca, depending on which Cca u choose.

Literally, our Every \"Mon, Wed, Thurs\" (if your Cca fall on Wed) OR our Every \"Mon, Thurs, Fri\" (if your Cca fall on Fri) :-
are being \"eaten up\" / \"swallowed up\". They all end around 4.30 pm, on these 3 days. Jialut ! :frustrated:


Then, what if you happen to be in our school Sports team and this Cca require u to come down to practise both Wed And Fri, then become Every \"Mon, Wed, Thurs, Fri\" \"eaten up\" ! Also, next year (2018) is SYF competition for school guzheng team. If belong to guzheng school team or Chinese dance school team, means have to practise more often

Hi Fizz / sgmum,


since we are all 2017 P4 parents, may I clarify with you ?

When we open up our school calendar, goto November month, there is this thing called \"Results slip for P4 students, and SBB\"

SBB : I know that it means choose the Subject based combination, for next year 2018 P5.
Example
for Maths : some of us will be doing 2018 Standard Maths, while others will be doing Foundation Maths, based on our year-end P4 Maths results.


This \"Results slip for P4 students\": may I clarify, does it mean we are getting back our Report card on Monday (13 Nov) ?
Thank you, for clarification.

btw, based on calendar info : next Tue and Wed (7 and 8 nov 2017) : Admin days, no need to come to school.

Hi phtthp,

The school's activities have always been very \"jialuk\" as comparedd to other primary schools. St nicks wants all the students to be holistic & all-rounder at the same time. The school activities are fully-planned for the students. Your dd's time spent on VIA/enrichment will come in handy as well, as CIP hours all recorded in the report book (if you intend to dsa when come to P6). So the school is training our dd to be very bz for other activites, at the same time, must be able to cope well in their studies. I think it will prepared them even better when they go to secondary next time.

Hi Phtthp and Fizz,

If you opt for Higher Chinese (HC) at P5, you will just need to purchase the HC textbook, no need to purchase the normal Chinese books. It’ll still be taught as one subject (Chinese) during curriculum time, like in the case of P1 to P4. However, there’ll be compulsory extra lessons on Monday after school as mentioned previously. The teachers will teach the girls based on both HC and NC formats for exams. There’ll be notes given for both HC and NC words.

Hi Phtthp,

[This \"Results slip for P4 students\": may I clarify, does it mean we are getting back our Report card on Monday (13 Nov) ?]

Yes, the P4s will receive their SA2 and Overall Combined Result Slips and issue of P4 Option Forms for parents to decide and return the option form by end of the week. P5 class allocation will be notified during the school holidays.
