comfy:

My DD said that Mrs Foo said that it would be 2016 she would use the school's funds to renovate the school - turn the school into single session according to Government's plan. Lucky she is in Sec 2 by then.
Anyway, I don't know how accurate is this news.

Great (not)! That's when ds will be taking psle

My dd was not in school last Friday. However she mentioned a couple of weeks back that her FT told the class that they will be placed in a holding school in 2014 (my dd's P6 year :roll:). Mrs Foo could have announced an updated plan on Friday during my dd's absence.


If it's like what comfy's dd had mentioned, the school would have completed reno and be ready for single-session by 2016 (government's plan) within that two years.

markfch, hopefully by 2016, the school would have gone single-session and your ds's PSLE should not be affected.

Going single-session is painful for those who are not in the school yet.

Agreed.

When my elder boy entered pri sch, we got into BPPS w/o balloting (within 1km) as the no. of placement was 480. Now within 1 km also need to ballot.

Hopefully, the sch has a more definite plan and can inform us soon.

Pardon me, but why moving to a holding sch can affect PSLE?

Moving sch location is a lot like moving house. There'll be a lot of unfamilarity and disruptions (eg logistics issues if far away from current location). P6 is the year where there should be minimal disruptions so that all can focus on the exams. That's why I heard that P6 students this yr are exempted from YOG/NDP events.

Haha. It's just that when her FT informed them of the move, she specifically mentioned that it's their PSLE YEAR so I guess it could be to prepare them mentally for the disruption of the move and adjustments to new environment.

Ytd, my P3 boy told me Mrs Foo gave a talk last Fri, saying the sch will be moving to a holding sch in 2012 and there is to be some expansion going on at the existing site so that the sch can go single session.


Ask him moving to where or for how long, he said he did not know (maybe Mrs Foo did not mention?)

Anyone heard sth similar?

Mrs Foo give a talk ? Does it sounds like the \"news\" is being announced during the school assembly session to the students ? :?
If really so....then perhaps a lot of P3-P6 students could have heard of the announcement. Can any upper primary students parents help to verify ?
