Looking for size 32 white short for my Y2 boy. Anyone has and willing to let go for free or at low price, pls PM me. Only left a few months, feel heart pain to buy new ones ;(

Thanks.

Your boy can still wear white shorts in Y3 and Y4. Only Y5 and Y6 can't wear white shorts.

Oh really? Sorry I don’t know about this and it’s good to hear that but does any one wear shorts in Y3?

Thanks.

Thanks.[/quote]Yes, they do. Except for special occasions/ on duties, they can choose to wear shorts or pants. Many would prefer shorts.

Dear all…

I am new here and first time seeking for advice. My child is short-listed into RI and it required a math test soon. We parents have no idea what to prepare for the test ? My child do not have extra math tuition besides school lessons so appreciate if someone went through RI math test before can advise me what area/format/type of questions maybe we can practice on? If fail the test mean will be opted-out from RI correct?

Thank you.

Math Olympiad type. Mcq and short questions. Did your son participate nmos, smops, ripmwc? Quite the same. If your son get gold in nmos / platinum in smops / (high) distinction in ripmwc, should be no problem.

I agree with dunma. Your DS can just take this as another MO test. If he is keen, he can prepare like what he did for SMOPS and RIPMWC. IMHO, NMOS is probably less useful as it's P5.

Note that school may change the format from year to year.

Dear coast and dunma,


Thank you very much for your reply. Sorry I’m new to forum and looking for the reply button option from your thread but I don’t see one so I just type my reply at the bottom of the screen.... not sure where my reply will appear. Hope you can see my message.

I have no idea on “math Olympiad” “nmos” “SMOPS” etc.... my Son also never participate any competition before.... I start to sweat when see all these new terms..... :scared:

Hi

My son is shortlisted for the DSA English selection test on Sat. It says 2 papers in 2.5h with short break. May I know what would the format be like? Creative essay and SAT style vocab/compre? Or maybe 2 essays? Feeling rather overwhelmed!

Please PM or post if anyone can share! Really appreciate any help :please:
