Nan Chiau Primary

chadax:
I bought few weeks back when I heard it opens almost daily and can buy anytime, do need to wait till orientation. It's so easy, the lady serves only me with all the time I have for my son to try diff sizes. I can imagine the scene on orientation day.Uni and shoes can buy already? can go in to the school & buy first? No restriction? :? I still keep thinking must wait till orientation.
School admin staff said letters posted out and we can expect to receive this week or early next week.. not friendly tone (as usual)....
keep thinking whether have sent my son to the wrong school... hmmm..quite disappointing
I agree with you. They sound terrible and bad attitude everytime I called them, sounds like impatient and wanted to end the call asap. It makes me wonder too if I have make a wrong choice....

There was some fun \"assessments\" last yr (& past few yrs too) for all the kids but we were not told of its purpose. So there were some speculation that it was to re-assign classes for the kids (actual class is different from the temp orientation class).I am thinking of sending my son the courses. I called up Miss Yap for the english course and was told children need to sit for a 45 min test on orientation day to ascertain their \"standard\" which will determine where they place the children during the 10-day course. Max size of class is about 20. Those really weak ones may be 1-1 for a while but same fee. Can anyone confirm if there's really a test?
The letter didn't mention about attire for orientation, so can wear anything?
Must we buy books on that? Will it run out if I buy another day? Disappointed that letter never mention how much is each (e.g. books) so that we know how much to bring....
Just wear home clothes will do if no uniform is required.
$300 shld b more than sufficient for bks, uniforms & shoes.
U might 1 2 skip buying on 16 Nov, as it's meet the parents in the a.m. & concert in pm so sch will be crowded. -

Sat mornings are for optional enrichments. If you have no intention of signing up then there's no activities on Sat.

I’ve just checked w bookshop this a.m. Booklist is avail from this Thurs but books only avail during the sch hols & the store opening dates will b on the list.
Time-table will b avail only on 1st few days of sch but try not to pack too many activities on weekends until u hv a feel of the homework load during weekends. Some classes seem to hv more than others. -

i sent my kid there last year for both courses. but can't really give much feedback since my objective was not so much for him to learnt lots. But it was more so that he can pick up the momentum before school starts and also give my inlaws some respite from the long hols :lol:Hi chadax & audmom,
I think the opening hours to buy the uni/shoes is 9am-4pm. To be on safe side, better call the vendor to confirm again (Mdm Yeo 6764 3102).
I am also considering if I should send DS up for the 2 courses. Any parents out there can share their feedback if the course is beneficial? -
Very good performance indeed . Nice and cute. Good team work.
The main point I wanted to point out was as there was a total of 10 classes in Primary one. When almost two to three classes already performed, I realised that most of the parents went out (I do not know they went home or what) without watching the other class childrens to finish their performing.
I felt bad for this childrens as they really put in a lot of hard work on this performance . You can imagine how the childrens would feel seeing those empty seats?
As what I understand that the school asked to confirm the actual number of people attending this Mini Concert.
There shouldn't be any empty seats left till the end of the concert, right?
Others parents should also supports other class students /Childrens too, Right. Cannot just see your own childrens performance then just went off.
My girl was under the first three classes, really felt so sad for the rest of the childrens. -
Sorry if someone has asked / answered this question before :
Is Nan Chiau Primary a feeder to Nan Chiau High School, now that it is designated as SAP school ? -
