hihi Dion,
P1-8 is a very special class in PH. I observed that usually the parents of this class are very involved type. Both E3 & php's dd were formerly from this class too.markfch:
[quote=\"dion\"]Hello everyone,
Like to join in this network since my DD is in P1-8 next year!
I'm happy to find another parent whose child is in the same class as my DD - P1-8
Welcome here! Will send u a PM later.
Mark,
Didn't know P1-8 has so many famous alumni
I would like to be a very involved parent come next year, but but but, I find it challenging even when I imagine a tired mom after work trying to coach a tired child after school at night.[/quote]Hi Joyfulhands!
Yeah! is your DD your first child too?
Mine is, so I'm kinda lost now. kekeke -

What has she been putting into our food to make both father and son so lethargic?

I'm in the same boat as you. Have never read a single Chinese novel all my life until recently. I'm self-teaching myself the language now and have progressed to reading ζζ₯, which I realised is full of ε «ε¦ζ°ι».I sweat with even K2 chinese standard so its really tough for me.
Honestly, I did not realised higher chinese is compulsory here until my hubby found out during PV. My nephew who is in Rulang did higher chinese but it was optional, so I kinda assume its the same arrangement.
In case you don't know this, there's HCL streaming in P2. So if your child is streamed into the higher classes, that's good. If not, no big deal anyway as that means that she has more time to beef up on the basics. -

Ok, now I'm confused. :roll: P1 has no higher chinese? Only streaming in P2 for higher chinese?
What if the kid is very good with all subjects except for chinese? Go to lower class? -
dion:
Sorry, my mistake. I meant to say that there's subject banding for HCL from P2 onwards. P1 to P2 is en bloc. And there's HCL for P1.

What I figured out is that in P2, even though everyone takes HCL, those banded into the better HCL classes will have additional items such as moxie. -

Bro Mark, What if ....markfch:
From my experience, if either party is tired on a particular day, then just forgo the routine and do something else that is non-academic, like play. Tiredness induces impatience for the marker and carelessness for the markee (hey I just invented a new word!)
Give our brain the rest it requires. In the long run, this approach is better.

look like chinese in PH is the ultimate? Other subjects seem secondary...
BTW, what did you mean by P1 to P2 is en bloc? :?
Thanks for sharing! -
Joyfulhands:
:please: Me too.... we are so fortunate ad blessed really... :grphug:Scary:
Reasons given were PH is quite good in developing a child's character + a balance environment for the 2 languages. So glad that my DS is in PH!
So am I Felt very blessed. PTL! -

Thanks for sharing![/quote]Based on what I observed, English, Math & Chinese are of a high standard in PH. Only Science is of similar level to other schools. -

I meant that the whole class moves from P1-8 to P2-8.

It's always great when we remember to count our blessings, rather than always looking out for the next \"better\" thing. ζθ°η₯θΆ³εΈΈδΉ.my ds has been there for 4 years and i still feel as blessed as when he first joined.
When I see my little boy prancing to school daily, I say to myself, \"Boy! I've not seen a happier P1 boy.\"
