Oh gosh, yes. All the best!
We still have to clear the Math WA2 end-June!
If it’s any consolation, DS will be “revising” along with your DD…his holiday homework is finishing up some SA1 revision papers that they school did not have time to make them do. Teacher will post answers in final week of hols for them to self-mark & hand up corrections.
I can imagine some naughty kids will just skip doing it and wait for the given answers, then copy it wholesale…heard stories of friends’ kids taking such shortcuts on SLS during FHBL. No wonder they can be “done” with work daily so fast. -

Thanks. We fired up the machine again today. So far, have enjoyed 2.5 weeks of rest and doing other things of interest.SG_KP1\" post_id=\"2027254\" time=\"1623771160\" user_id=\"188234:Oh gosh, yes. All the best!

Has your school confirmed whether any in-person activities/classes next week yet? We are scheduled to have some lessons the second half of next week. I assume they will be in-person but I guess they could stick with zoom until school starts.
HBL takes a lot of discipline for all parties involved. I hope this batch (2022 PSLE) can have in-person classes the rest of the way (i.e. next 1.25-1.5 years) without interruption but have to monitor the public health situation... -
No news at all about in-person STEAM holiday enrichment in school. I guess it’s low on their priority list.
The kids have already faced so many scale backs of so-called “less important” activities. Group CCAs, JSA, NSG…I guess they are just trying their best for the academic side of things (for PSLE)…the rest I suppose is not crucial in their eyes. -
Hey parents! We are introducing a nationwide social initiative to help you gauge your child's relative standing.
We started this because we realised parents are not able to gauge how their child will perform against the cohort before the PSLE.
We offer free tests to see how your child is performing against the cohort. The more children who participate, the more accurate the relative results would be.
If you think this is an initiative that is worth participating in, you can find out more in the link below. (We will soon be releasing papers for more levels/subjects).

The new PSLE AL system grades one's child on the basis of his/her individual performance in subjects, regardless of how their peers have done. Your lead generation initiative is moving people away from MOE's intended objective.

Hi Putien!
Yes, this is something our team has thought about and wrestled with.
Our goal is to provide transparency on where a child is weak at prior to taking a national level examination. Having gone through the system ourselves, we believe it’s beneficial to help parents know where their child stands so that they can take targeted action!
Coming from different schools, we can see how some children are better prepared than others. We understand that every school should be equal and would like to help bridge any gaps while MOE takes steps to ensure all students have access to the same quality/rigour in preparation for national level exams!
If every child can achieve the same AL, great! The data should also reflect that - granting parents a peace of mind.
Thanks for your feedback though! -

Finally got the HDP back. We also have the raw whole number marks alongside the AL band. I suspect this is the standard issue..
.....
Btw, my P5’s Semester 1 HDP shows the raw whole number marks (which is optional, according to MOE) alongside the AL band. How about your school P5?[/quote]
At least get 4 days off next week to prep a bit for the WA3s in week 8 and week 9. This term too compressed with WA2 carryover from pre-fHBL... -

Thx for sharing. My tutors have already slotted in additional morning tuition on those 4 days off, to ramp up revision for WA3. This term was really far too short for the school to do much. Not to mention no resumption of supplementary lessons at all.

Picture compo for CL (from this year’s Term 3 WAs):
1. 诚实/路不拾遗 - saw a handphone left on a seat in shopping mall; returned it to the information counter
2. 孝顺父母/物轻情义重 - girl wanted to get Fathers’ Day gift but did not have enough money; ended up baking a cake for her father instead -
Just wondering whether it’s common practice for schools NOT to return the EL Compo and CL zuowen question papers?
It’s really quite hard for parents to review the accuracy of our child’s story if we can’t see the actual pictures given!
Anyway, based on DS’ WA2 CL zuowen script, I am guessing the pictures looked like this:
1. protagonist and friend walked to convenience store to buy ice cream
2. after paying for the ice cream, they ate while walking to the bus stop
3. at the bus stop, they sat and waited for their bus
4. when bus arrived, protagonist suddenly discovered that his EZ-link card (helping word given was 车资卡) was missing.
5. both boys ran back to the convenience store
6. (?) create your own ending.
