For information, 15 kids were selected for GEP from CH3. one kid chose to stay in PH while 14 confirmed moving to GEP schools. Majority chose NYPS while a few chose RGPS.

Wow! php, I am amazed at your efficiency in gathering info. What else do you know? Do share.

I am just wondering will all surely be accepted to their choice of school or will MOE posts them to other GEP school with vacancies if their first choice is full?

btw E3, did your kids join us in Sleepover Camp at Underwater World? i saw a family on the name list matching your 'specs'. the girl is from CH2.

Hi Parents


We had a very successful event, Living In The Ocean Sleepover Camp, at Underwater World on 16 - 17 Nov 2010. Both fathers and kids enjoyed themselves. No of participants : 50 pax through invited basis only.

The next re-run will be on 7 to 8 Jan 2011. Target participant : 25 fathers with their kids (appro 50 pax).

For soon-to-be P1 parents, you can sign up for the event during the P1 Orientation Day. For the rest of parents who are interested, let me know and we can send you the invitation.

can I ask where's the hall? :oops: Orientation's tomorrow, and we'll prob be rushing there.. Is there only 1 block at PH? Hall's on 4th floor rite? DH was the one who did the registration, but when I ask him for directions to the hall, he just said 'can't remember' :roll:


So will the change in class names affect all levels? incl P1 rite? Good thing this kiasu mommy hasn't finished labeling everything..

yes, 4th floor... right in front of the lift lobby....it will be quite crowded tommorrow, so probably take the staircase will be much faster...take the opportunity to train your kid, the kids will have to use the staircase daily...not allow to use lift without permission..

[quote=\"dyh\"]i feel honoured to have chiefkiasu's support in this. or shall i say \"i am honoured?\" :lol:

Since this is only ChiefKiasu you are talking about here, \"I feel honoured\" would suffice as an answer. If it is LKY, your answer has better be \"I am honoured\".

This is hilarious!! :rotflmao:[/quote]

:udaman: if it is LKY I'm talking to, I will be very honoured to have the opportunity to speak to him.

I bought the books from Popular yesterday...but have not written his name/class on them. Shouldn't be a problem with the books right bcos I didn't buy them from school vendor. Thought of wrapping them but worried.

Jennifer, may I know which question are you talking about? Trying to understand what you mean by comparision.

Qn31) The qn on a pic of Animal A (an ant) and Animal B (an eagle)- Explain why animal B is not an insect?

Qn36) The qn on mould on bread- Explain why Bread B did not turn mouldy.

dyh:

I give one classic example. In SA1 for P1 this year, they have a comprehension question which asked something like \"how do they feel?\"


my son wrote \"they feel happy\" and was marked wrong (not even half a mark gievn) because the teacher said correct answer is \"they are happy\".

To be honest i still have a hard time accepting this. if i sat for the exam, I would have got it wrong myself, not to mention P1 kid. :lol:

Compreh skills are definitely not taught in lower pri levels. My elder boy got the grasp of it only at end of P5 and I must give credit to his EL teacher then. Hm, maybe I should get my elder boy to set up a class to teach lower pri pupils and earn some pocket money in the sch hols :lol:

Oh really?! I am not aware of this event. Haha. Coincidentally, my family was at Sentosa yesterday morning too but went to the beach, not the Underwater World. Hmm...wonder who that girl is? Did you get the name? Do you mind pm-ing me? I have three girls but only eldest is in PH, the other two are much younger.

Janet, if you had matched the titles of the books word for word, edition for edition, publisher for publisher, then shouldn't be a problem.
