Hi mng_kl


You are welcome. Come visit th forum often. We will post the open house date once we heard from the school. Hope u lik what u will see.

Hi Ivy and Astee

Finally it is a sunny Tuesday. It rained the past two Tuesday that the swimsaver program was canceled twice. Glad that today DS can go dip in the pool and continue his lesson.

Speaking if ECA, any of you let your DS join ECA at P1?

Hi Rejoice,

My son missed his swim lesson because he just recovered from flu, so i told him no swimming.

My DS expressed his interest to join CCA but problem is there is no intake for P1 to his preferred CCAl. So i told him to hold on the plan till next year. I preferred him to start CCA in P2 as P1 is the 1st year of official studies for him and he need time to get used to the routine of school homework/nap/tuition classes.

My son missed his swimming lesson too. He knocked his head the previous night and used that as 'excuse' for not going swimming. I was disappointed and think he still bit scared of water :-(. Hope he overcome his fear eventually.
May be next year we will put him in swimming CCA for him to pick up swimming. Wonder if they take in people who does not know how to swim :-p.
Wow tuition class for P1? What kind of tuition class is your DS in?

[/quote]Hi Rejoice,
It's the normal tuition classes of Eng/Math. These lessons help to reinforced what the teacher had taught them.

I c. I am looking for ways to help my boy's Chinese. He is like a banana man. Not interEstes in Chinese. Any recommendation is highly appreciated.

Astee, my boy told me that the MT teacher won't let them drink water in class. Have you heard your boy saying that? Wonder if my DS misunderstood the teacher or it is really like what he said.

Hi Rejoice,

My children are doing Chinese enrichment classes at Tien Hsia. I know there are few other chinese enrichment centre that have such lessons. so you can find out more on their curriculum.

Interestingly, i just asked my DS - he said cannot drink water and go WC during MT lessonss :lol:

Thanks Astee. I will go look around. Still thinking if I should give DS enrichment class so early. But will do some research before making the decision.

I find that a bit strange to not allow children to drink water in the class especially recently the weather is very hot. Wonder if I should write to the teacher to find ou the reason.

Tomorrow is Tuesday. Hope it will be good weather and DS can join the swimming lesson. How is your DS? fully recover and can join swimming class already?

My thinking on the drinking water part is probably the MT teacher want to minimise movement and disturbance to the class. I trust she/he will know if the child is genuinely thirsty or just wanting to move around.. :lol:

Yup, my DS went for his swimming lesson today and i think he came back with his classmate's pant iso his own...haha.

LOL. So does he knows whose pant it is? DS came back said he was scolded by coach cause he did not know how to keep himself floating. At least I am glad he went to swimming lesson.

They are going to learning journey tomorrow. Are u volunteering again this time? TG is quite on got LJ. One of my friends her girl only went for LJ once this year for P1. It is good to have the kids go out and get close to nature.

Aiyo, having problems posting with the iPad . Just realized my reply got embedded in astee's post. :?


dS ask me to go on the learning journey tmr but I din receive request for PV. Anyway not easy managing so many kids.. Hee.. So better to take a break this round but I must say I'm very happy with his FT. It was a good opportunity to see how the trs interact with the kids.
