The ting xie #4 (Term 1) was with the previous list given out, it's on 9 Mar (Wed) as 8 Mar is school's anniversary. There is no new list for this week's Ting Xie and term 2 one not out yet.

I was not aware of the test and not aware of the grouping of weaker kids too. hmm…think my girl has been sleeping in class till she doesnt know what is going on.


Anyone has any tips for her to stay awake? She has been falling asleep in class till now. Teacher changed her desk to a lower desk but still no use. She told me now the teacher makes her walk 5 rounds in the classroom.

Hi, helping my sister to check. My nephew is studying in Nan Chiau P3. This year some of the afternoon he has supplementary lessons and CCA to attend. All of us are working and there are no school bus available to send him home after the lessons and CCA. Just to check how parents cope in this kind of situation. Or is there any SAHM or aunty staying around the same area can help to do the fetching? They are staying at Compassvale Crescent.

LSP is a special programme not for e gifted but for pupils with learning needs disability. Some kids are " switch off" during lessons, some dun learn n some are slow, maybe cos they started schooling late. Gifted children will only be highlighted in P3. Going for LSP means the teacher identified something not right or suspected something. whether e kid is in LSP will depend on the results.


By the way, P6 parents whose kids are going to e malacca tour might want to note: my Malaysian friend just told me that place Mahkota hotel is "very dirty" that’s why it’s so cheap. luckily, my girl is not going. I do not want to entertain supernatural stuffs.

Sorry I type using phone so missed out some things. LSP means learning support programme. The test will be able to tell many things based on the band of the results set by schools. If your kid is ok, he/she joins the class. If your kid is slow due to late schooling ( eg only attends lesson now but no kindergarten) or any other special reason reflected from the test, he/she will go for LSP during lesson but not with the class.


Gifted kids have to go to another school cos they are gifted n have to be trained differently. Nan chiau don’t have gifted programme. Gifted kids will be identified in p3, go through 3 special tests at national level. Fight it out with other schools. If your kid is gifted, he/she will have to go to top schools like nanyang primary. Teachers teaching gifted programme are specially trained to teach gifted children.

[quote=\"VJA\"]My girl has a classmate since P1, who always like to today be your frenz, tomorrow dun be ur frenz. The worst thing she would ask all her frenzs dun be my girl frenz..

Undertand this is kind of growing up process, I guess, but how should I console my girl not to be bother abt such issues?
I have been saying again and again to ignore her but today still come back crying abt this girl...

what should I do?

My girl same here. One of her classmate aslo when she likes, friend my girl, don't like friend others. But not bad as to tell other classmates not to friend her.

Tell your girl not to give up, look around, observe her classmates, there sure be one of them likes to be her friend.

Sigh.. this is part of the growing. I guess there's not very much we as parents can do other to let them know that we are always there for them. I still remembered the same thing happened to me when i was in preimary school. I ended playing with the boys because they are less \"petty\" with such things. As long as u can play, guys generally dun pick on you. As opposed to girls, some how we pick on others for all kinds of things... funny looking hair, speak strangely, fat, quiet etc...
I ended quite a tom boy in my early childhood years because of that. No matter what, all ends well. I exhibit no macho traits as an parent now. I cook, sew, wear make up, shop like all other women.

That being said, no matter what i think this relationship issues are not that bad in lower primary. I worry when they grow older, BGR, jealousy, puberty. That i admit, was a big hurdle in my life. Even subsequently when i started work.[/quote]Just found out that my P1 gal gets bullied in school bus... There's a P1 boy that demands she bring extra food for him to eat on the way home and he also sometimes takes stuff that my gal buys from the school book shop. There's another P1 gal that also sometimes takes stuff from her. Guess they have more time to interact on school bus since the journey takes 45 mins from NCPS to reach my mom's place. My gal is the 2nd last on the school bus each time.

My gal is very kind hearted and generous, but we are trying to teach her to fend for herself and not give in to these kids.. as part of growing up...But as parents we will still worry... like when should we approach the other kids' parents etc...

Her teacher will then contact the 'Bully child' s' parents regarding this matter. As all parents will say their child is not a bully, it can't be.....don't anyhow says... :roll:

Hi Wintersoul15,


if its a test for those weaker students, why are the test set in such high standards like multiplication, division and addition in the thousands like 1648 + 3543?

What you can try doing or teach your girl is to voice out to the child that she will report to the teacher, her parents (you), then the school and her paretns (you) will call his parents. Usually such 'scaring' tactic works as they also afraid their own parents get to know. If it doesn't improve, let the bus operator and school know.

I don't agree with approaching the kids parents. It will get out of hands, trust me.
