Hi mommies


I received an email from the school 2 days ago about they sending a letter for Administration day on 17 Oct (my girl starting P1 next year). Did anyone else get this? And do you know what this is about?

Yea, I received the email with regards to the Administration day on 17 Oct too. Was just about to post and ask other parents. I have yet to receive the letter. It also mentioned about appointment slot.. have no clue what is this about.

Any parents receive the letter yet?

Hi BTPS mummies

Anyone know if I only need the school bus for 1 trip from school back home, any discount? Or anyone have the bus uncle contact no.?

[huaywenandkenneth]

1way home is only slightly cheaper than 2way (ie not much discount). I had to opt for 1way as the pickup time in the morning was too early fo my boy - we wanted him to have more sleep. Bus uncle contact number is 91998844

Hi all

1) I like to check out the homework load for the kids. As to how many remedials class they have to attend on average weekly starting from which level. I can understand that for P5 & P6, they may have remedial class to prepare for PSLE. How abt the others level P1 to P4?

2) Is there any minimum no. of CCAs the kids have to take?

I don’t like the idea of having to spend too much time at school for children. Rather let them rest at home, bonding with family and enjoy other enrichment class, like music.

Hi all,


1) Admin Day
If I remembered correctly, I spent less than 1hr there to fill up all the forms.

2) School bus
for single trip, fee is 80% of the two way. The rate includes the rtn trip for days that they hv to stay back for remedial/cca.

3)Remedial class / homework
Supp class is for P3 onwards. Usually just one day. CCA will take up another 1 day. The homework load is managable.

Does anyone knows the ranking of BTPS in terms of psle result?

Hi mommies, I know this may sound like a silly question… but do P1 kids have cubbies where they can put their school bags and water bottles, etc? Or do they, like the ‘good old times’, put the bag on the floor next to our desks?


I bought a SPI bag and it has a water bottle pocket on it. Am wondering if it is easier to get a bottle to fit that pocket or one of the typical sling type ones… I am thinking if there will be too many things for DD to take care of (bag, water bottle, maybe lunch bag, etc).

Any advice or feedback mommies?
