hi JY, i m coming.... registered for P1 yesterday... thks god no need to ballot...(really nightmare)... hope will like tis school much n hv good teaching staff ......加油 。。

Welcome to the Juying Family!
Yes, I noe what you mean, balloting is really no joke. This is one of the pull factor for me to join Juying last year too!

I quite like the fact that the sch management promotes open communication with parents, with quarterly parents and teacher meetings (4 times a year)
and other direct modes of communication like via
emails, notes or even hp for some teachers.

So do take note and make full use of it ya! Cheers! :lol:

Hi Parents,

Heard from student care ctr that Juying will normally closed for 3 days for PSLE written exam. So any idea which day will school be close amount the 5 days of written paper? :idea:
6 to 8 Oct is English, MT and Maths paper. 11 Oct is Science and 12th is Higher Mongue Tongue.

So far when the school close, I will try take half-day leave to be with DS so he dont hv to go student care for full day (except June/Dec lah). Considering of going to the kid maze at Jurong Safra.

Then also heard school is closed for PSLE marking days (19-21 Oct).

All in all, there are so many \"off-day\" by the school, govenment should give working parents \"student-care\" leave. :rubhands:

Thanks.

When I read ur message on the number of \"no school\" days for my ds,

the first thing tt came to my mind was good,
then I can hve more time to revise my ds work during those off-days for the end year exam!
:oops:

You're so nice to go on leave and even plan activities during those days! :ugogirl:

Usually during PSLE marking days, the student care will encourage the students to attend student care because that's where they will be giving out 'extra' worksheets for them to prepare for the SA2 exams. Even the student care centres are being 'kiasu'

Anyway, kudos to you for wanting to do the opposite. For all you know, your kid may end up doing better in his exams without all the 'cramming' because there is less stress :celebrate:

Hi Yerdua & Sakura,

Actually student care teacher advise me not to take leave on Children day !!! She suggest I go on leave on the day before exam to give 1-to-1 attention. I told her that will stress me out instead :!:

Okay, FT had replied to my question. he he he. No closing during PSLE written paper (6-12Oct), but it will be closed fm 19-22 Oct fm PSLE marking. That is 4 days instead of 3. I’ll update DS student care.
Tentatively, school will be close on 10 Nov. Their school holiday start fm 18 Nov except P5& P6 will attend school on 19th. So no school for DS on 19.

Thks for the info!


Do u have any idea, what’s the component/ weightage of each component like for the Chinese Paper 2?

Dear JY parents,

DS has brand new unused excerise book from his P1. 2 bks of Big Square Line Book (50c ea), 6 bks of Med Single Line Book (50c ea) and 1 Jotter Book with Line (60c). 1 pack of Word Study Cards pack ($2).

Can we exchange this w school bookshop for P2 excerise book? DS has no slibing to pass on. Or anyone interested? Thks.

BTW, if u r P1 parents,
1) u may consider buying less on excercise books that stated on the booklist. Last year we bought the qty stated and now we hv balance.
2) u cant dont buy the word study cards pack.
3) we had bought the optional 2 items of disctionary. not use by teacher also.
4) note book (30c) was not in used too.
