[quote=\"Berry123\"]Hi parents,

Do u realize that your P1 dd has been re-grouped during her Chinese lesson? I know they are re-grouped based on their SA1 Chinese result

Hi Berry,
P1 girls have been regrouped. Daughter tells me she goes to Violet for her Chinese lessons. They are still taking normal Chinese.
CL spelling list is out. First spelling is on 6/7.

Hi Janet,
Do you know whether your dd is in the best chinese class? Thanks.[/quote]Hi Berry,
My daughter goes to Violet for her CL class. The teacher in charge told me there are 15 in the class and most of the girls are from non-speaking CL families. I'm very relieved she will be benefitting from a small class. My son didn't enjoy that when he was in P1. Cheers for IJ TP :rahrah:

Yes, my daughter likes her a lot...actually she likes all her teachers.
Daughter recommended to attend remedial every Thur since last term.
I'm all for it bcos she is learning with her friends.

Hi Berry


My girl also has suppl class starting this tomorrow. My girl told me its offered to everyone and we can also opt out. Wow, the school is very \"on the ball\" , P1 only....My boy's school does not even has any supplementary for any boys in P1 & 2.Anyway, its really good to know that they put in the extra effort to help the girls. :thankyou:

I was expecting some kind of honeymoon at P1...unfortunately it is not.
The principal and teachers are so warm unlike my boy's school.

I am non-Catholic/Christian.
Wouldn't say the school will 'brainwash' the girls, but it's a Catholic school and they do have prayers. However, for non-Catholics the girls will have Ethics class instead. This is a change from before when all girls (Catholic or not) will have to attend Mass then. Don't worry.

Hi janet… tks for ur assurance. Wat do the girls do in ethic class then? Do u roughly noe hw many percent of the girls ther r non catholics or christian?

I'm not sure about the religion %...my daughter's class comprises of girls who are from P2A2 and 2B. During ethics class, they are taught moral education...honestly I've never asked her in detail before. She loves the school and this assures me that we have made the right decision.
