The girls have to learn Catholic hymms. As for Cathetism classes on Fridays, it's only for Catholic girls...those who are not will attend Ethics. That's as far as I know.how much Catholic teaching curriculum is imparted to pupils in the school ?
how does the school teach character building values ?
do students need to attend Mass chapel ? how often each week ?
what is taught during Mass ? -

There is not much homework brought home...most are done in school. Standard wise, I understand P1-2 now are the same in most schools now...because there is no CA/SA, there are tests to assess the kids.Hi Janet

As for assessment book, you can get 1-2 for each subject. For CL though, it's not possible to find one which follows closely what is taught in school. There is one other title which I find useful...it helps for the CL spelling from Term 3.
Regarding assessment books, you can get 1 title for grammar, vocab, comprehension, writing and cloze. You may want to read this thread...'all about preparing for P1' http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=117&start=940 -
