just curious why the banding done at p5 rather p3 as is the case wif many schools.

[Namie]

My son’s name tag is green though house color is red. I think name tag color is standardized across the standards so teachers at one look know they are P1s.

[mum2jj]

Phew! I was worried they got the colour wrong, house colour is supposed to follow them throughout the years, so I thot name-tags too. Maybe our kids are in the same class. I met a really friendly lady while queuing up to buy books, that wouldnt be you, would it?

[Namie]

No, I should not be the friendly lady cos we didn't talk to anyone when queuing up. Instead I was quite flustered cos I need to rush my son to his I Can Read class.

So nice of you to take leave and did that. I was on leave for past 4 days and I couldn't make myself get out of the house.

Think that's about it.

Water bottle?
By the way, now that the food is catered, how much money should we give our sons? Would they even need money for anything?
My son only know how to add up the correct amount to pay for his food but he is not very good in calculating the change if he pays more than the required amount.

Don't think they need to spend a cent but I will still give him $0.50 a day. Will make him save the money end of the day. Remember to give them some $0.10 coins in case they need to make phone calls.

does MSH test kids on their phonics at p1 or p2 exams?

I read somewhere (think it's inside the booklet) to give them a Singtel phonecard as office phone is for emergency only, so maybe no coin-operated phones in school? Public phones outside are all card-operated ones too.
