Very simple requests indeed! my dd sure wanna get away from the sight of books after PSLE. Told her after PSLE she can dump all her worksheets and assessment books into the recycling bin. DH super happy when heard that cos he said house is so messy with books stacking up. Dining table is no longer a dining table ...

err...U don't call this an achievement...
it's mummy's previous \"hobby\" of going popular to buy n buy and many are left untouched too, hence the accumulation. I've banned myself from buying books already. Secondly, it just shows mummy has not been doing a gd job packing the house... :siam: -

I can only share for my child's school only. No morning study session. School hours as per normal. He has only one Supplementary a week. Homework manageable, maybe slightly more for some Fridays/weekends. He still have time for his personal activities.
Hi, like to have a general check how other schools drill their P6 students for their psle.
My child starts school as early as 7.10am for an early self study session thou not compulsory but then sometimes the teachers do go thru some work during this session. After that is the normal school hours till 2.10pm. Then they have 1.5 hours supplementary for each subject from Monday to Thursday. By the time they reach home is 4pm+,with 1 to 3
homework to complete, sometime to hand in the next day, sometime 2 days.
Is the above normal for P6 students in other schools? -
Dear parents,
Can anyone recommend any head-start / preparatory program for P6 syllabus for P5 children which you had sent your children to last year or early this year ? I am not talking about normal tuition lessons but like a holiday camp sort of thing held over a few days / weeks.
My child is in P5 now and looking to use the DEC 2019 holidays to enroll for some head start program.
And best wishes to you and your children for the upcoming PSLE

Sounds good. Does this applies only to yr dc's class or whole level be it strong or weaker students also just stay back once a week? for my school, the whole level needs to stay back but weaker students for certain subjects might have to stay back an extra hr on another day for remedial on top of supp classes.

I think my school is stepping up after seeing their cohort's less than ideal results during their recent SA1. Used to be super relax in P5 . P6 term 1 and 2, stayed back twice a week instead of almost everyday like now. Nowadays also have some talks so need to stay back too... -
tryourbest, your dd is lucky that school is stepping up its efforts this year…our side, after sa1 result, seems there is some small movements in the supp class. Also I remember there will be targeted remedial/supp class for certain students later on if I m not wrong.

I keep hearing ur dd do online studies, I wonder how she does it haha...u mean she goes online to read up or those like mconline etc? My dd never do online studies, all hardcopies.

Peace is good, nowadays I also more peace cos dd simply don't have as much time to sit down with me to go through extra work. Compare to previous years, this year revise lesser together. -
yes those mconline/koolbits and also the chinese one…all school kids using those I believe… I m not sure abt the level of difficulties… but my guess is those should be not that difficult as in like those top sch papers right? I always tell dd to have more varieties mah…coz papers got different application type of qns?
to add …i think also because of 2 in 1 as she likes to listen to initially soothing piano music but now upgrade to songs liao…I always ask her if that will affect her absorption rate… she says no instead it helps to make her revision not so boring…but sure in between will get distracted de la.
