      yes, the livelier the better so we potential parents can know more abt the sch..hehe πŸ˜„

      Sure it is.. i hope i chip in by providing correct accurate update so that to cut down many misconceptions among parents.

      My focus will be on addressing issues at School level or at least Class level.... And please Do not ask me about how to score .. what to study and how to get Band I.

      These are problems that i have left to my sons to figure out. i merely facilitate and aid them to reach their goals. I just only knew that once a child is independent and he has positive characters, resilient and compassionate, he can achieve anything in life.

                Hope the school can consider to let the pupils to go recess by batches....


                I understand some school they actually practice that... e.g. P1 & P4 ... or lower Pri dismiss 10 min earlier etc..

                Since 3rd wk of school my DD has been bringing lunchbox to school (either bread or cake). She told me she don't want to q up to buy food from the canteen cos a lot of people.

                Actually i can understand her cos last time in CCC. Those aunty will sent their lunch to their classroom. No need to so called fight with others... Moreover those P1 kid so small build how to fight with those upper pri pupil.

                As and when i will ask her: Do you want to try to buy food from the canteen. Then she will said: NO MUMMY I WANT YOU TO PREPARE LUNCHBOX FOR ME 😐

                  I'm a parent PVing in HWS.

                  HWS is a SAP school, so there's only Chinese as MT.

                  This school is rather popular in the area, there's balloting for phase 2C in recent years. So if you want higher chance then good idea to volunteer.

                  My kids not in HW yet, so will leave the other questions to other mummies πŸ˜„

                    May I add that under 2B, thus far, there were no balloting required - so all got in - I get the feeling that there are more and more pvs, so it's anyone's guess if there will be balloting in future. As for 2C, there has been balloting within 1KM - so if you are staying outside of 1KM, and only intend to go under 2C, better have a backup plan.

                        This problem had been studied by PSG with School P.

                        The school started with 2 recess period 2 years ago. We found that Upper and Lower Primary can't play together or School can't organize program at School level. Also the noise of the overlap recess affects both upper and primary group (when each group is at Classroom). Imagine, the noise distracts the lower primary at the 1st floor. Lower primary Student would be alway staring out of the classroom and not focusing on their class.

                        In order PSG to study the situation, we had Duty Recess moms to survey the situation for 3 weeks last year. i suggest you can volunteer and help the Recess Mom team for a few days to experience the Recess.

                        - the current situation is the best we can get with lower primary given 10min head-start. Lower primary gets to buy food first.
                        - the challenge is the first 10mins as most children rush to buy food so that they proceed to play. the Q is long.
                        - usually after 15min .. .. many will be playing and buying food is easy. The Q is much shorter.

                        Your suggestion had been raised every year and reviewed.

                        Check with other PSG, it is a common problem among single-session school.

                        Thanks.
