Could someone enlighten me which are the books that the children should leave in school and which are the ones that they should keep at home? Read from the various class blogs that some teachers are collecting everything from the students, while in my case, books brought to school are being returned back. Also, it seems that some books are kept in the classroom by the teachers, some are kept in the student’s locker, some are to be kept below the student’s desk. Which are which???


I am actually getting frustrated already as DD has different teacher for different subject. Do I have to go call the teacher up one by one and ask? :x

U can forward the query to the form teacher first. Can follow up again at the meet the parent sessions.

I am surprised that there will be 4 days of PE lessons per week!


That means the boys will be wearing PE attire to school for 4 days… but we have already brought 3 sets of uniform… kids nowadays grow so fast! This should have been told to the parents in nov/dec…

My P3 DS told us 2 days only - same as last year. But the timetable is not out yet…

Just to share, i have my ds to only have his main 4 sub textbooks always in school bag. Most of them will be either under desk or locker. The teachers will allow them to take from locker if needed. Usually before June holidays they have to clear their desk and locker too and pack back again in Term3.

Oh, heard that some top students are in 3F. So most likely this might be one of the top class.

it is a guessing game each year, for every level

DS mentioned top 4 are 3E (?), 3F, 3H, 3I.

Actually, I did, but the reply wasn't clear as well. Apparently, they are supposed to give some of those things to the teachers respectively, but during the first 3 days, the subject teachers did not have time to come by the classroom.

Yes, intend to clarify tomorrow when we tour the classroom, or at least, see it for myself. When I ask my kid what her other friends are doing, the answer was some brought everyting to school on the first day, some brought the optional material to school (which we didn't), some put below the desk...

I think the supplier told us 3 days of PE... We bought 2 tops and 3 skirts. By the way, do girls wear the skirt over their PE shorts even on days of PE? Heard from others that in the past, girls just wear shorts on the days when they have PE.
