      Hi Mei Zi,

      I also received the bursary letter, but i not entitled to apply for it.
      BTW, the P1 orientation is on 30/11, 9am. They will brief us what to get and which class our kid will be going into. I called up the 3G abacus and they will have orientation at school on that day, they will start intake children on that day. If you interested, you can take alook.
      i personally feel that after my duagthter attended the 3G abacus for 1.5yrs, her maths is quite good.
      Thanks Irene πŸ™‚

      I am not really into abacus kinda courses but am opened to it during their orientation. I have gathered feedbacks from my friends who had gone through abacus courses (mental calcultation, etc.). Kids tend to become 'lazy' during their maths lesson/tests as with their abacus skills, they get answers real fast in mind, but what the school looks for are their working/calculation on paper on how they get the answers. In the end, all answers are correct but not 100 in score was received as his working did not shows the answers arriving in steps. It was feedback from my friends lah. Its like an enrichment to train the brain so I am pretty open with it but did not enrole him during his pre-primary days.

      My boy was actually doing some pre-primary maths minder class with anchorvale cc for about 6 months before the class was terminated due to low enrolement rate. The teacher and lessons were good but no parents like it which i don't know why. I really find that its a pity. Lots of parents went to abacus after attending the first course so i guess abacus was more popular in a way ....

        Oh is it, after hearing what you say about lazy during their maths lesson and may skip som working in the papers, i think i must monitor her when she is doing her maths sum.
        thks for your advice!

          No. NCPS is not a SAP school.

          Also not affliated school to Nan Chiau High School, so sad.

            Agape only has childcare. They stopped student care 2 yers ago. The student card centre nearby is called Polaris. You can called them at 68810616. For afternoon session kids, the teachers there will walk them to the school after their lunch and shower.

              Hi Everyone πŸ˜„ ,


              Any parents have experience or enroled their child with Seng Kang CC's Chinese language lessons? There are two trainers conducting same classes for same levels. I am wondering which one is better (Ms Lin Yin or Ms Ho Peck Hong) and able to relay to children well. Thanks for the advice and have a good long weekend ahead.

                        Hi, can I just ask whether anyone have received letter from the school informing the date for buying uniforms / books before the orientation day?

                        Thanks!
