        Mini tests...hmmm.
        So it's true that P1s this year are enjoying honeymoon ?
        My daughter has faced one summative assessment (quite similar to SA1) and another summative next month (in my opinion, it's like CA2)...there is listening, oral and written tests.

          yes...but definitely much much easier than what my dd went through last year during SA1....the parents does not know when there will be a test, so basically less pressure for parents and probably only get a minor shock end of each term....

            Yup, definitely! Mine too!
            These Pri 1s are so lucky now, can relax... but on the other hand, a little pressure is good to push the kids and exams, besides being a gauge on their level of understanding, provide a gauge of how they fare compared to their peers.

              Janet, yes the Pri 1s in PHPPS this year are really lucky... but in my opinion, I would still prefer something similar to what your DD is having in her school... Very good training for them so that they will not get a rude shock come the exam in Pri 2.

              i think the school will silently conduct mock exam in preparing them for P2 year end exam....As you know, all our kids except P1s are doing past year exam papers in class as a form of preparation. The school will know how to take care of that...

                  Looks good for applicants < 1km.

                  Cut queue barbeque, cut queue barbeque .....

                  Yup, P1s are lucky. You know what, their parents are luckier, muahahaha.

                  Ok I admit sometimes I do wonder where my ds stands relative to cohort. But I reconsidered, nah nevermind, sooner or later I'll know (even if I don't want to). In the meantime, can eat snake, eat snake (吃蛇).

                      For kids like mine, who need more time to adjust to school life, I’m quite thankful there’s no formal tests/exams… at least there is more chance for my boy to catch up with the rest of the class… can make use of the long holidays etc…

                        Scary said she'll throw BBQ if her kid gets into PH.

                        Markfch says that if his ds can top 5%, he'll perform the gravity defying stunt of back-flip somersaults from Toh Tuck Rd all the way to Pei Hwa Avenue.

                        We parents are getting braver, ain't we? :rotflmao:
