Hi all

Haha we are all so excited over an event that’s still about 3 months away. I will be w my hubby so if u ladies don’t mind the mummies and daddies can call meet for dins or kopi at central.
Anyway any Bishan mummies here?
Yup will def eat full full before going. I wonder when the girls will know their class and receive their booklist etc. As for the shift, it’s the current ST Nic sec right? That school looks old:(

Happy Friday everyone it’s time w our lil’ ones soon again! Yahoooooo!!!

It's PERFECTLY ok to be excited...because yours truly felt the same way the moment I received the confirmation letter :rahrah:
Take your dinner but don't eat too much...lots of listening to do :evil: and some notes to take down.

The girls will know their class, teachers and classmates...so it will be fun for them...all the ice-breaking sessions.

Parents will be receiving file of notes, forms and name tags. Book list as well and dates when they can buy uniforms.
For parents picking the girls, there are 2 gates to do so after school...HDB gate at Blk 168 which is better as there is less congestion and side gate (Philips) which is terribly congested.

As for the present school, I do agree with you that it is very well maintained but the stalls in canteen needs reno as they look rather old and dirty.

No prob Kaylasmum! My husband more excited than me go and apply half day leave already... so he will also join us! I think the shift is so that the current premise will be upgraded to cater for the full morning session scheme... they need to build more classrooms and facilities so that they can full swing into it and have more vacancies in the long run.

Happy Friday! I can't wait... anyone wants to go check out the SPI/ Kinderfun bag offer with me?

coffeedrinker:

yes, agree, it doen't matter religious. look forward to the orientation.

people told me it 'a stressful school...well, for me to find out

CHIJ is a convent school...although I'm neither Catholic or Christian, I'm ok with what is taught. The school also believes in grooming the girls to be ladies. :rahrah:
