      Can I bring DS2 along for the meeting? Can DS2 sit in the classroom with me, while I meet the teacher? DS2 is a P4 kid. Thanks!
      Firefly38 😄

      yes, you may. P4 should be ok, they know how to behave and sit quietly.

      last yr, my DD went along with me too. She just sat in one corner, doing her homework. But there was a young boy about 6yo there as well, and he was disrupting the briefing with his playing with stuff on the tables and such.

        Thanks Strparent! I need to bring DS2 wherever I go, as I don't have a domestic helper or a 'grandpa/grandma' to be with him at home. Don't think DS2 will do his homework there (he is still in 'honeymoon' mode, haha!). Maybe will let DS2 play his DS Pokemon, in SILENT mode, to keep him
        occupied... 😉

                      Heard that the seniors and teachers were rather harsh towards the boys during the camp, and kept shouting and punishing them, maybe that was why the boys broke down (secretly and softly) and missed home?
                      My DS was so tired that he fell asleep while resting on his comfy bed at 8+. He has sun-burnt on his face, back of his neck and his hands too! Wonder why RI wants to make the boys feel so tired on the first week of a new term, in a new year, at a new school??!!!

                        The other CCA he was in is Robotics, which he really enjoyed too. I notice RI has neither of these activities?

                        Robotics is under Infocomm.
