It was held in the dining hall, only coffee/tea served. I was expecting a buffet

Each hsemaster has his own group of parents to attend to. Luckily for us, we arrived on the dot, got to speak to him 1-1. Then more parents arrived and we had a group session. The Lignum hsemaster got only 6 confirmed responses, ended up more parents turned up.

The parents talked abt missing laundry, late sleeping hours due to Wed hse activities, quality of food served, CCA limited choices, transport for canoeing CCA conducted outside the sch, the adventure camp. I think these are all.

The hsemaster again reminded parents to encourage the children to mix around more, not to stay inside their present cliches. Also commented that some children needs to speak up more, they are too quiet. Talked abt importance of speaking up, mixing around-> social skills, interview skills -> leadership positions ->scholarships applications.

Dear parents/students,


My son will be starting Sec 1 next year. For Language Arts, could anyone share what \"Text Books\" or \"materials\" were used this year for the subject? Thanks in advance.

For NJC, is Language Arts a big jump from Primary 6? Do the Sec 1 students cope well or do they struggle? My son is more inclined to Maths and Science.

Thanks.

personally, i feel it wasn't a big jump. as long as your son listens in class, he should be able to cope. (;
