Hi parents

Care to share more about your children"s first week experience so far? Homework, recess time, teachers etc? Much appreciated.

Hello 1amber / all, my girl is in 1B (@ tiggerdan: same class as your boy!).


Just to share her short experience of day 1: she started the day looking forward to the rest of the day, with a new school bag and pocket money to buy her own food. Upon reaching school, a bigger primary one kid brought her up to the school hall. She had a primary 2 buddy during recess time, she bought fish balls and seemed to enjoy herself - didn’t start to socialize with new friends though. Yes that’s right 2 stalls were closed, it seemed that the selection of food is not a lot. She brought a 500 ml water bottle, and by the end of the day, she said it’s not enough. Now I have to find a bigger bottle, or pack some milo / juices for recess time. I think the adjustment went pretty okay so far (she knows where the toilet is, the public phone, the general office and importantly feels comfortable with the teacher), she is looking forward for day 2.

Btw, I ordered name tags to be sewn on the uniform - does anyone know if this will be distributed soon by the teacher, or do I have to collect this from somewhere?

Also, I noted there are 25 reading books for primary 1 for the whole year - anyone here care to exchange books for their reading? That way it’s easier to find the books instead of looking up in the library / shops

Anyone staying @ OneAmber?

If I remember correctly, it will be distribute by the FT when it's ready.

actually are those name tags a must? kinda regretted getting them coz it meant that his uniform cannot pass down to his younger brother
