Hmmmm, this yr the school did not assess the kids before allocating the classes. I wonder why....


My DD1 was given a class before the school starts. During orientation, the kids were given a tour and some colouring and trace to complete. Wonder why the change in direction.

Same here, the class was also allocated before Orientation. Bu during orientation, the girls were brought to their classrooms with form teacher and a few P5 students. They were given a few pages of worksheets to do , some form of assessment to understand the level of the students, if they are weaker or better, the teacher will make separate arrangements.

The P5 students were there to conduct the sight words reading with the girls

For separate arrangements, do you mean the classes will be re-shuffle or that it's to identify who need LSP?

For the first day of school my DD1 does not need to bring any books. We were told that there will not be any formal teaching during the first 2 wks. It's more to ease the kids into primary school life. But I wonder if they would conduct assessment on the kids.

I think we have the same character cards. The cards can be used for both Chinese and Higher Chinese class.

Castle House, Panpac is a subsidiary of Marshall Cavendish Publishing Group. So yours should be the right one.


My Chinese textbk is by PanPac but on the cover it's Marshall too. This was sold by the school bookshop.
