TENNISMOM:

For my DD1, her school's reporting time is 8.10am and to be seated by 8.45am.

Thank you for sharing! I would think 8.10am is reasonable timing and our children don't need to wake up so early!

[quote=\"Brenda10\"]Hi mummies/daddies,


This Friday, 16/9 is a PSLE LC Examination.

MT - 9.00 - 9.35 am

EL - 11.15 - 11.50 am

Yet to know what will be the reporting time (for DD school) as that day only P6 students need to report to school!

That' wish all the P6 DD/DS good luck! :rahrah: :rahrah: :rahrah:

Hi Brenda,
Thanks for the well wishes. All the best to your DD with her LC on Friday too. :rahrah:

DS sch reporting time is 8am at sch hall.[/quote]
Hi Pen88n,

Think most of the schools will have the reporting time around similar timing.

Answer provided for 38c is wrong.


Hi - could I find out what should be the right answer for 38c. My son also put the material as iron. Of course - I find the way the explanation is worded in the model answer a bit wierd.

Thanks in advance

Hi vidhyalog,

:scratchhead: I'm not sure which is the correct answer. DD's answer for Q38c is steel. Any other parents know the answer to Q38c, Henry Park Science prelim paper? Tks

Hi Tinkerbell,

I think steel should be correct as well. As the material repelled object X - it must be a material that can be magnetised. Among metals - steel, iron, nickel and cobalt would be magnetic materials.

Would I be correct in saying that? Any other views?
TIA
Cheers

:hi5: DD's rational for choosing steel was also based on the concept of repulsion. Tks.
