Tinkerbelle,

Art Club starts from 10:30 -12pm, i raised this issue to FT on last friday and she said she will tell the teacher in charge to go off early but doesn't seem to be early today and GSSC said they were sorry that they didn't inform the parents today, umm...i just wonder why come CCA ends so late, i'll have to pack lunch for DD then. :roll:

Tinkerbelle:

lvkt:

oh, just now i rec'd my first call from DD, so sweet :politebleah: and was told that she only has oreo biscuit for lunch, so i called up SCCG and the lady told me to pack lunch for her next week onwards coz the cook at SCCG can't prepare lunch so early for those who are attending CCAs in the morning, is that true?

Hi lvkt,

:please: aawww.....so sweet huh, even if it's just to tell you she only has oreo biscuits for lunch...
I'm surprise GSSC does not provide lunch for the kids. Thought the CCA finish about 11.30...isn't that about time for lunch for those who aren't going for CCA too?? :scratchhead:

Hope your DD is feeling better today. :lol:

Tinkerbelle:

Hi acbj,

Wonderful...hope you get positive feedback from the MT teacher about your DD's progress. :celebrate:

Thankyou tinkerbelle.
Half a load off my mind. Hopefully after Friday, will be able to off load the other half. At least I know if I need to do anything or not at all.

[quote=\"WorriedParent74\"]My gal attends MT in 1P and she came home yesterday telling us her MT teacher only gv them 6 out of the 10 HYPY spelling yesterday citing '没有时间'...we are wondering why the teacher has no proper time planning and the message she is sending to the girls...no time thus no need finish the work?!...

Hi WorriedParent74,
Not enough time to finish spelling...that happened to DD2 once only last year. The teacher completed the rest of the words the next day. Ya, dunno why...maybe time management issues?

Hi WorriedParent74,
My DD came bk wif the HYPY spelling bk today. It was 7 words. She's in 1Perseverance under Ms Boh's class.[/quote]My DD is in the same MT class. As she was sick the 2nd week, she did take the 1st ting xie and hence did not have an exercise book for ting xie. So for this week's ting xie, Ms Boh asked her to go to the bookstore to buy an exercise book. Hmm, probably Ms Boh had asked her to bring one but my DD forgot, so had to go buy during lesson time. Her first purchase from the bookstore!

thanks for your concern funkymonkey, i just visited her and she ate sushi again? :shock: but sure this big eater will not have enough and will shout \"hungry, hungry\" when i fetch her later on.

Oh...this means no lunch for my DD too
Luckily DH stuffed an energy bar in her bag to standby.

Hi chergaby and lvkt,
Hope your gals won't be too hungry during lessons then..
maybe they will eat more during recess.... [/quote]

funkymonkey,

haha..i don't know why i feel like you're the one so i just came over to say hi coz i don't want to miss any chance of meeting any mommies here, hee..i hope i didn't interrrupt you as i know you were in rush to take DD to see dr, ya?
yup, it was rainning and the taxi driver didn't want to wait for me but luckily i managed to grab a cab on road side, *phew*

DD is still coughing, sigh...i will need to go her school again today. Yesterday, my DD didn't come to foyer to meet me and the office lady couldn't find her so she told me to go ahead to canteen to find her, but guess what? i was standing in the canteen and i saw 400 plus girls, they are all about the same height, same uniform running, shouting, chatting :!: all around me, i couldn't stand the noise, super duper loud, i really salute :salute: the teachers there, i walked around but still unable to find my DD and finally i gave up and walked back to the foyer and told the office lady to call her for me, what a experience!

Hi lvkt, hope your DD will get well soon... dose her with manuka honey and vit C.. i've been dosing my DD with vit C since her 1 week fever episode...

He must hv a crystal ball......

If the CCA ends near 12pm, it is highly possible that the girls won't hv time to eat. It does take time to buy, chew, eat, drink and return the utensils.
If it's my DD, she won't be able to wait till recess especially since her breakfast at home is at 630am!

:!: :!:

Hi pepooh,
I can understand why your DD does not want to miss out on all the fun. :lol: Does she knows what she wants to wear yet? DD2 has already chosen a pink cheongsum, plus matching hairbands. DD1 is too 'embarrassed' to wear cheongsum at this age as most of her friends won't wear...keke.

Just a tip, seasoned MCS parents will go super early to wait and queue outside the sch along the main road around 9.30-9.45AM. If you are real KS and go early to join them, then you can be the first lot of cars to drive thru....Ssshhhh, don't tell the sch I told you that....haha....because the sch always tell parents not to come early. :oops:

Tinkerbelle, thanks for the hush hush tip!! Though I must say 9.30am will be a long wait in the car... I guess its either wait before if early or wait after if late.. either way, still have to wait...
