Club Eastenders (From Kallang to Pasir Ris)

Hi,


I can understand that from P3, it don’t seem that easy to score band 1 results for all subjects anymore. This is because it is getting more complex and they’ve additional subject to learn. But P2 should not be a big jump from P1.

To be fair to Molin, my P1 son did quite well for his std. He was the type who can barely recognise chinese characters,etc… due to his disinterest in chinese but I think he should score around 80+ for his chinese SA1. Which I am pretty happy judging from where he came from.

The ironic thing is that my girl has always been strong in her chinese. It was best subject. She learns her chinese spelling,etc… by herself and we rarely have to worry abt her chinese but this time round, it was bad… I was just having a disc with a father whose son is also in P2 same school and he mentioned that the son also did very badly in english and chinese and he gathered that it’s probably due to very strict marking. We shall see after I see the paper tonite as that should not be a excuse.

Hi MMM

Hmm, ya, guess you have to look at the paper to understand further.
Does it mean that normally we would know the results first, followed by the physical paper later on? So if my son's last paper is today, I may know the marks next week? So many things to understand as primary school is so foreign to me until now

Hi,


Based on the timetable, we should be getting the SA1 papers to sign today.

My kids’ exams were from 4-6th May. But starting from last week, the kids started to come back to tell me their scores. They were given their papers to check and look through in class.

However some parts like oral exam might not be added on yet. Eg. for my P1 son, he told me his total english and maths score. For chinese, we are only missing the oral portion to piece the entire picture. So at this moment, it’s a borderline band 2 or 1 situation depending on how well he did. He told me that he forgot the chinese word for strawberry and said it was ping guo… will see how it goes.

Hi,


Just came across this thread. I stay in Tanjong Rhu, suppose that should be considered East.

2 kids - 1996 (boy), 1999 (girl)

hi


New to the entire site and I stay in the East. Marine Parade to be exact. Got married and move to North East, never got used to it and now back to my home town…Always felt more familiar and cosy in the East.

I have two kids, 6 and 2 respectively.

Hi helloagain, arielgetz, Mandarin,


:welcome: to ksp! I love staying in the east too. PP, the beach all the way from tg rhu to changi and the newly expanded still rd makes driving to/from pie/ecp a breeze.

It's called Katong swimming complex. That was the first swimming pool I ever went to - when I was in Primary 3. Loved the animal statues.

txs, chiefkiasu! Thats the place i spent my childhood days with my bro too! It was fun and the mee siam there was delicious…something abt swimming pool food that is nostalgic to me. They really ought to do more abt the yucky bathroom.

[MMM]

That was the place I learnt swimming too.


I miss the mee siam, sandwich and poh piah.
