Yeah..till now I still couldn't figure out how much is one bowl of noodle with fish cakes coz she always bring back different amount of change. And there's once she said she gave her friend who she knows since Kindergarten $1 as her friend forgot to bring $$. And another time, she said that friend just reach her hands into my DD's pocket and take away her $$. *sweat*

Okies.. u got this issue too. Same here. Yesterday one of her classmates ask my gal to give her $$ coz she not enuff $$. Luckily I didnt give my gal $, so she left 10cents. Then she asked her fren, u want 10cents? The gal shrugs. LOL!!!!

hahah. so u give ur girl $1 everyday? I give my girl 2 $1 coins everyday. is $1 enough? There's once my DD ate Macaroni and came back with $0.90. So I thought that bowl cost $1.10. haha[/quote]Hi jesyeo,
the noodles are $1, they can add \"liao\" e.g. seaweed then add 10cts

Hi acbj,
My DD also told me the chinese teacher is Gao lao shi :lol:
Anyway, yesterday they brought home the chinese tingxie list ....
DD told me just need to learn the han yu pinyin

Yes, I saw the list yesterday and took photos of it to play safe.
So far she recorded her homework in the helpmate. But, yet to see any Chinese homework.... She did mention she has to do chinese work in class.
My DD is not so 'on' with Chinese.... So I got to be more alert to know what's going on.
Anyway I told her I graduated from Pri Sch. Since she is the one going to Sch, she has to do all her work/homework, if not she will be the one who faces the music.

My gal took the Hao Peng You home to do work... 4-5pgs.[/quote]There's homework in the Hao Peng You??? I asked my girl what its for and she just told me nothing!

Hi acbj,
The MT teacher you see during orientation might not be your DD's teacher. If you look at your DD's timetable....right at the bottom, it'll tell you who her Chinese teacher is and how periods of lessons are allocated for each subject/week.

Teachers on the website has not been updated. That was last year's. You're right, there are no trainee teachers doing attachment in the sch now. Even so, they won't take the class on their own. :lol:

Thanks Tinkerbelle!!
You are right! I went to look at her timetable (I took a photo of it) and it is a Ms Koh, not Mdm Tan. I guess Ms Koh is new to the school thats why din see her photo on the Sch website.

Hi all


You can find the lists of what each stall sells and at what price in the Sch canteen. It is at the 2 side walls near the toilets.
Saw the lists on the first day of Sch but not sure if it’s updated or it’s last year’s price…
Hope this helps.

Aiyo, chum ah! I dun even noe my DD's class do until which page.

How about Chinese activity book? Did she brings back? sometimes my DD will have homework to do on it. Or is it Becoz she do too slowly at school? Cannot finish that's why need to bring home? Haha.

Oh mine! :!:
DD has never brought back the Chinese workbook before, just textbook.

Has any of your DD told you that she belong to a group in the Chinese class?
I checked with DD, she told me she is in the same class but they are being group according to 'the test'. Can't make head and tail out of what she is talking about. I think all will be clearer next Friday after PTM....
:|[/quote]Grouping for chinese? hmm..that one I din ask my DD. But she also mentioned to me that they are being arrange in Groups and points will be given to those groups who are well behave during the class. My DD told me how many pts each group has now and she also said there will be prize given to those top 2 groups. hahaa. she said will have things like stickers and toys. But I not sure if this group only applies to English class or all classes
