Beacon Primary

[hotfudgesoda]

me three!!!

So relief… but too bad tomorrow have a parent’s meeting at my kid’s childcare, so can’t sleep late.

[preciousjam]

hope that more parents will join in so everyone can benefit…

vividlaurel>>does Beacon still want PV? i actually thought since my son gonna be in the school, i don’t mind volunteering at least can get to know more about the school…

[vividlaurel]

Preciousjam, I am sure the school needs all the PVs that they can get. I think on Orientation Day the Principal will mention it. Coz till now I noticed that most of their activities are done by current students parents. I would also love to continue so that I can know the school/teachers and my kids classmates better.

that will be great....i really think its a good way to know what's going on in the school and what the kids are learning as well....

vividlaurel>>saw in the another thread that your kid is in the learning ladder at ten mile...how's the school and the fees like? i'm currently looking for a cc for my youngest...

[vividlaurel]

Fees at TLL is a bit high, after the subsidy it comes to around 490 per child for half day school. The school is good, teachers are good also. The have some teachers who are parents and so can empathise with us as parents also. If you need anything specific let me know and I'll answer it.

Hi spitzcookie,


Welcome to KP! Orientation is on Nov 21. I know this as my kids got in in 2B and we got the letter.

I too have to start preparing them for Primary school. More stress for parents I guess!

Hi kiasi-dad,


Welcome to KP! Yes I guess your girl is in since balloting is for 1-2 km.

I'm not too sure about other CCA's there, but they have a Learn to Swim programme for P1. It runs from Term 2 and Term 3, with each term having 4 classes. The programme runs for 7 weeks in total and they go to the Bt Batok Swimming pool.
