dear fellow N2 parents,


this year, our kids in N2. For N2 and K1 levels, our school still got time to handhold our kids. The pace for (N2, K1) is considered normal pace.

but once come to K2 - the school academic pace moves very fast. Thus try to do whatever you can now to ensure good academic grounding for your child. Try to revise daily with your child. Time to set up a daily timetable routine for child, to recognise discipline at home.

dear Newton parents,


as we prepare our child for Primary school - the emotional part in a child is also very important.

Like resilience, self discipline, self esteem, preparing the child how to deal with and handle setbacks and challenges, subsequently in later part of his school life, during his defiant teenage years and adulthood.

below are two very good SFE (Singapore Family Education) Parenting talks coming up next month (September & October), at Pei Tong primary.

Admission costs ?
$2 per parent / $3 per couple
(Registration and Light Refreshments - start from 9.30am)

Any experienced parents able to tell what are the chances for successfully registering our kid at Newton kindy next year? Its my first child so I dun think there is any priority. I am planning to register for N1 in 2013.

I have signed up my child for pre-nursery next year but am now worried that he can’t cope with the afternoon at home cos he is a very restless boy… wondering those with children in the morning session, how do your child spend their afternoons? I have a maid at home who will be busy with chores and my MIL is taking care of my baby…

Hi, I have been trying to access the Newton website for the last couple of days but couldn’t seem to be able to find the site. Any idea what’s going on?


Also, I’ve registered my daughter for the pm playgroup next year but due to some change in plans, may have to put her in am instead. Any advice?
