Hi postpet, the registration date was 5 Jul 2011 for next year 2012 classes. Not sure if there are anymore vacancies available for N1 next year? Did you call them and check?

Hi all,


How many sets of uniform shall I buy?

[phtthp]

2 sets - children grow fast. bring child along, buy 2 sets that fit child nicely now.


for 3rd set, half a year later then buy. if you feel that your child eat a lot & tend to grow fast, half a year later, buy 1 size bigger.

:thankyou:
Ok, will take note. Didn't think about the growing part. Was think more about changing every day and washing in time.

buy 2 sets first.


Mon & Tues - wear 1st set. Wash on Tues, hang dry.
Wed & Thurs - wear 2nd set. Wash on Thurs, hang dry.

Fri - wear back the one that’s been washed on Tues.

also, label your child’s water bottle with child’s name and class name, school bag (if needed). If lost, people refer to the label easily & return to the owner.

Dear phtthp, thank you for your detailed information on what to expect for Orientation Day as well as enrichment options available. Sounds good! Sorry for this VERY late reply, have been caught up with getting new flat ready, packing, moving, older son’s P1 orientation etc.

Hi

IdoPilate

Can I check how did you manage to get the AM class? I thought they give priority for the existing N1s PM session kids who want to trsf to AM in N2. Cos I also enrolled for N2 for my DD on the enrolment day in July 2011 and only manage to get the PM class which is actually quite a problem for me , logistically as I do not wish to put her on the sch bus.

Thanks

Dear Breadandmuffins,
I queued up on 5th July and prayed very hard for an AM N2 slot and was told I had the last one...my arms and legs were shaking from the stress!! I was fortunate as two parents in front of me in the queue requested afternoon slots. I do hope you manage to find a solution to your logistics issue (I empathize, I seem to spend most of my time shuttling my kids to various activities weekly on public transport). I read on this forum that your DD can request an AM slot for K1 onwards, so hang in there!

Hi parents


I am concern about 2 classes sharing a big room divided into 2. In the same big room, there’ll b almost 50 kids for k1/2. Kids r easily distracted. Will they be distracted by the other class during lesson time?

Anyone has boy’s uniform and doesn’t want to keep them anymore? I like to take over, thank you.

if there is any current K2 parent whose graduating son going Primary 1 2012 next year and does not need Newton kindergarten boy's uniform anymore or wish to give away, appreciate if you can help pass down son's uniform to porcupine12trade. Her K1 son needs them. Thank you very much for your kindness.
