Hi parents


Just received a letter from the school. There is P1 Admin day this coming 17 Oct 2011.

It says in the letter that we are to complete some forms, buy books and uniform.

Anyone going through the P1 Admin day before can share their experience? Do we buy all the books that the bookshop recommended? is it a standard listing of books? What about the uniforms? Do we get that on the same day too? Will it be troublesome if we get the items later?

hi,

my ds will be in 1g…great to know if some1 will be same class as her…is good to have contact no/know the parents of her classmates…

Kids at p1 sometimes do not remember all the instructions of their teachers/things need them to do or follow up…usually the teachers will get them to write in their school diary… however,. what they write may not be complete or simply could not understand what they have recorded… so may need to check with classmate’s parents… this can happen even to my p2
ds… .

Agree with durian0096. They are still too young to handle all these. esp the 1st 2 terms. Slowly they will be trained.


Hope can see more pple post here. We can organise a gathering or setup a contact list for the P1 parents.

Hi durian0096,

My DS is also in 1G. Nice to know some parents of the same class.

Hi zy mum,


hope to c u during the orientation day…i believe the school will have some kinds of interaction for parents of the same class to know each others. hope from there we parents can help our kids to get use to the new environment and system faster and easier…cos is a big transition for them… from a cosy smalll place to a big school compound,bigger class and heavier school workload.

sign!

Ya, maybe we can let each other know what will we be wearing nearer to the date, easier to identify.

[durian0096]

sure…


but before … i guess i may c u on the admin day…just for sharing…most of the books we can get from popular which can get a discount of 10% if not wrong … however in school we dont get any discount… we need not get the stationery from the school but some files bearing the school logo we may have to get… i wasnt awared during my ds’s orientation 2 years ago… dh got everything including optional items… costing a boom!

durian0096,


Thank you so much for sharing.
If not i will buy everything on the list from the school on the admin day.

From your experience.
For school uniform and PE Attire, how many sets should we get?

My administration is in the morning. So can't meet up with your.
Hope to meet up with your on the orientation day.
