i never noticed that there will be a briefing this Friday. Anyway, i not going also. Please kindly share with us after the briefing.


Thanks

Hi, just to update >>> my hubby went for the short briefing & it was nothing much....
becoz my ds will be taking the school bus fm home to school, so for ppl like us, no change..... there will still be a service to shuttle kids fm home to the new premises in TW.
only those currently walking to school will be more or less affected coz they wld then hv to assemble in the school before taking the \"shuttle bus\" to teck whye....

I attended the briefing, below some more info for your reference:

The shuttle bus pick up point will not be in the school 'cos the school compound will be closed. The school has not confirmed the pick up point yet, most probably will be at the HDB carpark near DLS side gate,if not, will be at Yew Tee CC. This is the only pick up point, will not stop at MRT station etc..

2-way trip :S$35 per month -normal school hours. After school hours due to CCA, enrichment class - S$45.

If you only want single trip - S$30 per month. Must also pay during school holidays. No ad hoc trip

In the first few weeks, school staff will be there at the pick up point to ensure everything goes well. Thereafter, no staff will be there. Thus, you need to make sure there is someone to wait for your kids after they alight from the bus.

For those who are currenting taking school bus, we need to talk to our bus operator.

No. of canteen stalls will remain. But staggered recess for students -3 groups: P1 & P2, P3 & P4, P5 & P6. We will be informed of the timing before school closes at year end.

The school will also let parents know the CCA timetable etc by year end.

Remedial classes & conversational chinese/malay classes only applicable to P3 & above.

P2 will have compulsory swimming class but for certain duration only , not throughout P2. It is not considered CCA for P2. Swimming lessons will be conducted after school hours. Bus will ferry them from school to swimming pool & back to school. I'm sure we will have to pay for it.

Only P3 & above are encouraged to take part in CCA. CCA in Primary school is not compulsory.

Current CCA at Yew Tee CC will no longer be held there, it will either be at the \"new' school or near it.

Hi Anna

Yes, I saw the notification too. Next week will be the maths test and marks will be counted as part of year end results.

Oh yes, the recess for next year will be 30 minutes instead of the current 20 minutes.

warm regards

Hi all parents with kids in DLS,


I am registering my girl for P1 this year. Would appreciate if the parents here can share with me more about DLS. I would like to know what are the activities / facilities available in school. From what i read in the website, it seems that DLS has got fewer CCA compared to many other primary school nearby.

Does the school (or the temporary school) has the following activities or facilities ?
- computer class / club
- science class / club
- arts club
- dance and music
- choir
-badminton
- swimming
- others?
- have you all seen the new temporary school in TW?
- what do you like or dislike about DLS?
Thanks in advance

Dear Healthyfatso:


Basically i am not sure how to answer your questions. However i got no regret to register my son with DLS (he is in P1) now. Fewer CCA do not mean not good as i don think our child can attend all the CCA.
Furthermore with the new premises in 2 years time, i believe there will have better facilities and learning environment.
