Yah - agree with Cherrygal regarding PE shirts. Some weeks - i dont even wear the School shirt at all - cos my boy has ECA and they are allowed to wear T-shirts (for that day).Dun skip admin day coz while the parents listen to the talks and tips, your boy will get to make more friends and won't be so afraid on the first day of school. My boy managed to make 5 friends on admin day alone. The kids also get brought around the school grounds and play games.
Another tip, buy more PE sets than white shirt sets. My boy only has to wear his white shirt on one day per week. I ended up with 3 sets and one is still brand new. I bought 3 sets of PE uniforms and 1 house T-shirt (wear once a week).
The kids don't need to change out of PE attire if they have PE that day. Very flexible. Less ironing for me!
I like MSHS for its good admin people. The admin team is very organized. Teaching culture is not very stressful though some teachers are fiercer than others and have their own idiosyncracies. The younger teachers are nicer and easier to talk to. I find the many ongoing tests more stressful than scheduled exams coz you won't really know when the tests are coming. Your boy has to be on his toes and pay attention in class. Blur kids or talkative kids may suffer a little.
There will be bullies in every school. You need to teach your kid to either fight back or avoid the bullies. My ds' friend got punched in the eye and the head. My ds even told me he had to stop another kid from kicking him in the abdomen by holding that boy's foot. So Jackie Chan...
Cherrygal - alamak! regarding the Fights!! Either my boy is very sotong or just too bochap - he didnt tell me about any fights in class or school!! :roll: -
