good morning all! my ds1 is in 1A and his form tr is mrs winnie tan. i was told she is very on the ball and pretty strict! for p1, there's no exams but they are expected to write a 80-word compo. die! ds1 is very bad at writing.. anyone has any recommendation for creative writing class?


at the end of day 1, im more tired than ds1! haha..

btw, i was told by the bus driver that every wed pickup time is 1.20pm. shyb, u might want to call up the driver and ask again

Hi Enirac
Yes, has checked with the driver. He is from a private transport company. Must be a sub contract arrangement from Comfort Bus. He cant change the timing as he has other jobs.

So far so good. My DS enjoys his school. I have only received the 2 days timetable. Only need to bring the files, books, health book and report book.

Hi shyb,

can share the contacts of your bus driver? ds1 is now taking comfort bus and so far for these 3 days, the timing varies.. hopefully it gets better by next week. or else, i would look ard for other drivers..

ds1 has also receive his tabletable for the rest of the year.

The driver name is Mr Chua. His bus is quite old. Have no idea, do comfort buses have assistant to look out for the children? This bus has no assistant and the bus is full with children.


Maybe the timetable will be given out within this week. Children will start to have fun to pack and unpack their school bag.

good to hear fellow parents from 1B - ha...we can check in with each other here


Hmm...my son is not enjoying primary school too much at the moment. He thinks it is all work and no play. And they have not even started formal classes yet

His Pri 2 buddy was excellent though, so responsible and trying his best to follow my active son around.

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?

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 :([/quote]I don't think it's enforced very strictly. When it was first introduced when Mrs Chong came on board, it was stated in the letter that it's compulsory except for P6 of that year. But my son said lots of ppl didn't have the name tag either. This year, we bought new uniform. We are not getting new name tag cos he's in P6 this year.

Hi, have to order the name tag?? From where? I didn't..*blur*

You can order it from the General Office.

It stands for Values Inculcation Program and Form Teacher and Guidance Period. This is new. I wonder what they will do in that period. My son only have CONNECTO.
