Nice to find a comrades-in-arms :celebrate: . It's extra homework for them because for tingxie, I will drill and grill them on hypy and the Chinese characters, so evil of me (use imagination for evil laughter)

WOAH, I backtrack a bit, slightly off the path. I don't really concentrate on spelling/tingxie. DS1 is well versed in my story of how I used to get 0 or 1 (I kid you not) for my spelling during kindy days. I just read to them like mad - DS2 was very grumpy last night becos I only did 3 storybooks with him (he wants 8 ). Pengz :faint:

This HongWen thread is getting more active with chatters like hquek, Vez and SAHM Tan. I gathered so much info from all u mummies.. though my boy is only going P1 nxt yr.


However I have 1 worry, my boy is a bit on the small side..are there any bullies around and r the teachers strict to discipline the bullies?

ha ha ha. SAHM_Tan's kid is only P1 next year also. I want to keep this thread active so we can all come together to share share. C'mon parents of other levels - just come and mutter and give us all precious insights on what this school is like.

on the topic of bullies, DS1 told me that the principal (or teacher - he not very clear) state that bullying is a SERIOUS offence in the school and offenders will meet with Mr Cane. P1 should be ok lah.

As long as investigation is thorough and parents are informed I support Mr Cane. He is also in my home, but mostly used by my hubby. When using Mr Cane, must have certain air or else it does not work.

Agree. If my kid is the victim, of course, some actions must be done. If he is the perpetrator, good for him to learn a lesson also.

ya rite, the kids must be afraid of the cane in the first place. Some kids r juz too rebellious and "thick skin", they r so used to Mr Cane already. Its their good friend in fact! ha.

Anyway glad that this is taken seriously in HW.

Just to chk, r parents allowed to accompany the kids into the sch during the 1st few days? or we can only stand outside the gate and the kids have to go to the hall by themselves? Will they know where to go?

me also glad it's taken seriously.

First day onwards, parents deposit kids at appointed gates (2 only) and then wave bye bye. No point to take leave becos you won't be allowed in. There will be teachers and a 'wall' of prefects standing there to ensure parents don't go in, and to guide the P1s to their classroom. P1 is identified by the temporary tag they are wearing...all others should have sewn name tags liao.

I don't have Mr cane in my house only Miss Kneel. I made her kneel down when she naughty.

As Mr Cane is used mainly by my hubby, I have Ms Wall at my disposal. My kids hate Ms Wall so it works for me
