Me just bought DS P2 books today, cannot imagine the cycle to repeat again in Jan 2012. But after P1, we should know what to improve for their weak area.


But a good experience indeed. I hope DS will not be careless and be more careful in his upcoming p2 work.

Dear All,


I have 2 sets of brand new PE attire to let go at SGD 20 dollars. Yellow house. PM me if you are keen. I cannot remember the size but is meant for P2-P3 gals.

dear parents, kindly advise,

1) is it normal not to have time table in the 1st week?
2) is your P1 child assign a P2 ‘buddy’ to familiarize the school/bring him/her to canteen during recess?
3) how much is your child given for recess snack/lunch?

thanks.

hi, drwho. Mine in P2 now.
1) Till now, P2 also don't have timetable. If I remember correctly, we had p1 timetable at the end of 1st week? Anyway, in Feb, the timetable is likely to change bec of LSM/LSE. So look out for changes later.
2) I don't think there is any buddy system. There are parent volunteers around to help during recess.
3) I let my DSs bring milk and snack to sch so that I know what they eat everyday. So, didn't give pocket money
Hope this helps.

Same thing, mine till date eat the home brought bread and a small pack of drink ( either juice / vita soy or milo.


But I still give him pocket money in case he wants to buy anything.

Same here. Homemade food. Canteen food doesn't look very nice. I gave DD 50 cents every week. At first I also see there is no need giving her pocket money... But I was too curious to find out how she will \"fiddle\" with real money .... a saver or a spender?...to test her of a kind lah... haha


By the way, any one knows about school policy regarding hand phones? I am asking this because my girl recently requesting a handphone. :lightrod: I said NO and she asked \"why P3 jie jie can have one but I can't.....\"..... :skeptical:

[drwho]

Haha. My P1 kid ask me for iPhone…

My girl is also in P1. I packed food for her only on the Monday after the orientation week. Tuesday, she requested to buy her own food, telling me her friends were all buying food from canteen....I gave her $1.50 but told her for food only, no soft drinks (give her a packet of milk everyday)...


So far Tuesday & Wednesday, she bought porridge, yesterday she said she had \"maggie mee\", all from a stall called \"Tim Sum Surprise\". Spent 60cts everyday...remainder she brought home and kept in her coin box...
She said the stall sells \"Char Kway Teow\" also and she wants to try soon.... :yikes: :yikes:

Regarding handphone, on the 1st day of school, I remember the principal did mention that he discourages.... don't think there is a rule that bans the phone because when I was doing parent volunteering works, many of the students from P3 to P6 all owns one....
