Thanks Janet for the info!! Maybe a jacket will be better than? But worried that it will make the bag heavy

just in case, you may want to put a short sleeve jacket in her bag. Maybe she will be wearing it in the morn on days she has PE since tops are sleeveless.

Just thinking any mummies want to meet up before orientation this fri?

Hi ladies,

This is the last week of school :rahrah: my daughter is at home today and tomorrow as well. Fri is last day of school and orientation for new p1s.
Remember to have our dinner first...it is usually lengthy.

Hi parents of P1 & P2 2011,

Any idea how do we know that our dds will take higher Chinese or normal Chinese next year P2? :thankyou:

[sunflower2005]

hmmm,

how about P1 students all taking higher chinese ?

I thought higher chinese is only offered at P3 (correct me if I am wrong) and via selection. If yr kids are selected, u will receive a letter from the sch to remind you to get the correct textbooks for 2012.

Believe they give you a letter at the parent teacher meet if your child is recommended for HMT.

For SAP schools, all P1s have to take HCL until P4. Then depending on results, the teacher will recommend if the child can continue or drop for standard Chinese. Usually the grade would have to be 85% to continue HCL at P5.
