hi, all..

hope's everyone in the pink of health..
the little ones were down with the flu bug, one just passing to the other..
they are better now.

i was wondering, if there are remedial/ supplementary classes for P1, if the need arises? i wouldn't mind DD to join a CCA if she's interested..wondering if there willl be transport provided to send her earlier, if there isn't, then need to make plans already...

Hi wimdils!,
Yes, identified girls will be selected for remedial lessons. For CCA, our girls have to come for audition/selection process.
I don't think there's transport for girls who wants to come early....so YES,you better plan

Hi wimdils,
Glad to hear the kids are feeling better now.

There is no transport available to send the gals to sch earlier for CCA. Parents will have to make their own arrangements.

Hi wimdils,
Sorry, I'm not familiar with the bus service from Toa Payoh. Maybe you can check for the bus route from your mum's place to MCS at this link.

Alternatively, if your mom lives near Toa Payoh MRT station, they can take the MRT to Bishan MRT station and transfer to the Circle line and alight at Caldecott MRT station and take a walk (~ 10 min) to MCS via Marymount Kindergarten.

Hope that helps.

Hi cantbearit2,
深广 section will not be tested in SA2. :rahrah:

This section is only taught to high ability MT gals to further stretch their potential. That means...your DD's command of Chinese is very good....:salute:

All the best with revision for SA2. Many chapters to cover in textbooks A & B for MT......I've only just started on 3 chapters in textbook 2A over the weekend with DD2.

Hi ohdaddy,
:hi5: What a coincidence. Ya, we are hoping it'll be a snowy one too. :xedfingers:

We decided against going free and easy as our in-laws will be joining us on this trip. When are you planning on going?

Hi

Plan to go the post-Xmas week. We are skipping jeju and want to focus on at least 2 nights at a ski resort. More to play and fall in the snow rather than ski. So far most of the tours have mandatory shopping days which we are not keen, so looking for packages that have minimal shopping and maximum ski resort
