Going forward, you will be used to a lot of funny things. If the teacher teaches few subjects, your kids may be asked to bring Maths Textbook on a day without Maths and use it during Arts lessons Cheers!

DS' science/art teacher had just briefed them on this.

[quote=\"dombry\"]re: food donation

we can't bring them on Kids' behalf? i was going to do it on fri.

Hi dombry, juz call the school admin this afternoon regarding the donation issue. She replied that P1 newies can pass their donation to their teacher.

thanks. i also called n office told me parents can bring it in. was asking my DS what to bring n he insisted that teacher said not compulsory during assembly yesterday. think DS is afraid to bring to wrong place. will do for him.

re:timetable
dun Hav any problems but surprised that there are so many differences between classes. if same teacher teaches 2 or more subjects, will teacher inform Kids beforehand the subject will be switched?

also when is the handbook going to be issued?[/quote]From past experiences, what office said might not b what teachers will (or willing to) do. There is an obvious communication breakdown between the depts or the front line staff was just trying to placate callers. So best to check w teachers.

Re: usually teachers will inform class if need to bring books that r different from time-table.

Re food donation:
Was it so early last yr? Things hv yet to settle down (the bookshop Q is so long & teachers r requesting for outstanding books/items), DS is bringing tons of books for submission today & tomo. Yet food donation drive now? :siao:

It happened when time is running out and teacher become desperate, so sacrifice \"non-essential\" subjects for the core ones. It usually happens towards end of term. I heard some school sacrifice most PE lessons to teach core subjs.

As MOE has accepted PERI recommendations, I heard that non core subjects are taught by trained trs in that subject area for example art.

[quote=\"smurf28\"]Behind the timetable show only abbreviation for each subjects and teachers.


Art Art & Craft
CME Civil & Moral Education
FTGP Form teacher guidance period
MA math
PE Physical education
HE health education
MU music
SS Social Studies
EL English
CL Chinese

mine different, only subject and subject teachers. Behind the timetable i see the below:

Art
English
Social Studies
Maths
Health Education
P.E.
Music
Mother Tongue: CL

The timetable has CME and FTGP but you see the above, there is no mention at all

The inconsistency already happened in past yrs. I wonder who actually supported the teachers in all this admin work. Simple things like timetable should be at least standardised. Sigh.

vevey,

form teacher returned my call regarding maths textbook, i should have checked with her. form teacher will return when lessons commence.

re:collect books
DS asking to put all the possible books in coz teachers will collect them anytime. Wah, heavy lei. *faint*

Re book collection:
We tackled this differently. Only bring textbooks as per time-table & any workbook that teachers specifically told them to submit (still adds up to alot!). Teachers will close 1 eye for the 1st 1-2 weeks lah.
DS was quite worried on 1st day when he only brought his Journal for holiday book record submission, as we didn't hv the time-table yet. Turned out that most of his class also just brought a small bag. :evil:
