Its a piece of paper with the child's name and class printed on it and it comes with a name tag holder and its to be pinned on the uniform on the first day of school.

FT will also ask the P1 child on the first day of school where they will be dismissed, then indicate on the front of this name tag. FG - Front Gate, BG - Back Gate, SG - Side Gate or the Bus No. the child is taking.

I'm new to the school. I will be picking my Ds from the gate that is nearest the church and not the gate that cars enter. Is that gate considered the side gate? Thanks.

Thanks E3. Actually during the orientation the FT already asked us that qn. I think if FT were to ask ds that qn on the first day, ds can only give his best impersonation of a blur look.

Parents of children in P5 this year, can you please advise the first topic for Science ? Sorry, blur and forgetful if ever mentioned earlier.

Is it ‘Systems’ or ‘Cycles’ ? Thanks.

Yes, the gate next to Glory Presb is the Side Gate.

That's a clever response too! Hehe. Don't be surprised, kids rise up to the occasion better than adults sometimes. You'll see more kancheong parents on the first day of school...hehe...easy for me to say cos my turn's passed.

I remembered my anticipation for her to be dismissed and controlling my tears when I saw her, trying to put on a brave front. Hehe...first child experiences...

I used to pick up my dd from the Side gate too.
Then I discovered a lot of parents moved to the back gate and do likewsie too. Reason ...
1. Side gate do not have a shelter on raining days
2. Side gate is near to the church entrance and sometimes they have oncoming cars.
3. Back gate though has a lot of parents/students, do have a shelter and not too near the road.
4. If you are staying nearby, it has sheltered walkway linked to quite a number of the HDB blocks.
5. For those driving, you will have more access to parking lot because at the side gate you will have to park near the hawker centre and have to fight for parking lots with diners

Another thing to note, as P1/2 are too young, PH allow parents to choose
1. Pick the students from the gate - kids will go to the back gate and wait for parents after flag lowering.
2. Allow parents to go in and pick up the children.

Thanks for all the useful tips regarding the pick up gates. Didn’t know there were so many factors to consider. May consider the back gate then.
