Hi,

Anyone has 2011 NCPS school calender of events? I know for some primary schools, they have a school diary with all the dates included. Not sure if NCPS has something similar? I am looking specifically for dates of school closure or dates where the P1 do not have to go to school eg PSLE marking day, PSLE orals etc. Need to plan leave. Thanks!

Just curious, do you all aware that school starts on 4 Jan and not 3 Jan 11 (Mon)? Below is from MOE website. I only get to know it only when I visited MOE web sometime back. We were not informed during Orientation Day, which I thought is important. I’m more surprised that many parents I talked to were not aware, even Polaris Student Care is not aware!! But the info is on MOE web, why MOE never get the school to inform parents?? I’m not surprised if students turn up for school on 3 Jan since it’s not a public holiday (probably MOE make-up for their teachers as 1 Jan falls on Sat).


I will call NCPS on Mon just to confirm it.

Thanks so much for the info, I din know sch starts on 4 Jan instead of 3 Jan! I can imagine the embarassment if I bring DS to school on Mon and realised it's closed :oops:

Btw, we only need to pack pencil case, water bottle to school on Day 1 or there are more to bring?

My DS will be in Polaris as well, I am thinking to watch him from far as the centre walk them to school on 4 Jan. Or shall I just send DS to sch myself on the big day instead?
