Apart from the weekly contact time done by a group of volunteers and buddhism period, the teachers don't speak buddhism. Even the Vesak Day celebration was so quiet.

Actually, alot of teachers are non-buddhist :lol: My girl's CL teacher is a christian. I am not surprised since there are malay teachers as well and Singapore is a multi-racial and religion country.

Yes my dd's ft is also a christian and she's open about it.

Do think twice about it if being in a buddhism environment is #1 on your list. I think you are better off sending your child to a Sunday school at a temple.

Of cos need not necessary that everyone in that school is a buddhist. In fact it will be good if there is a mix. Wad i meant was at least there is option for buddhist studies.

My DD told me that her P1 Maths exam is on 2nd Nov. Does anyone know why it’s scheduled to be so late? I heard some other schools have already finished all exams. Is it true?


Looking at it positively, this gives her more time to prepare for it. I’m asking her to do assessment books and past year papers from top schools.

She’s also using 2 websites for her Maths revision, one of which is recommended by the school and the other one I just discovered recently.

Hi, DD school exam also kick off next week.

Perhaps is to let the children make use of th4 4 PSLE marking days for revision.

Yes... I think all exams start next week. I appreciate the 4 PSLE marking days. Have been using this time to let them practise top schools papers. I like to do that so as to let them get used to exam papers and also as it's year end papers, common topics will be tested so doing the papers sort of help them to revise what they have learnt so far.

Yes. I agree doing the past years paper is one of the best method for revision. I also time dd for the speed as well.

Hi adbie,

Are you referring to the MBS P1 Maths exam? The list given to us says the Maths exam is on 1 Nov and not 2 Nov.

Hi,


I am looking for private transport to ferry my child from Lavender MRT station to Maha Bodhi School next year, as well as the trip back home. Wondering if parents here have any contacts for such transport arrangement? My child is attending the afternoon session (Pri 1) next year.

Thanks!
