DS just told me that his Music teacher wants them to learn 4 songs by heart and will be tested on 9th week... and told them that if they don't pass, they may be sent to Q Class. :razz:


This week is the 3rd week.. so I gather 9th week = 27th Feb week.

3 of the songs are the Chinese School Song, 华中行 and 满江红.. :nailbite:

DS doesn't know what's the 4th song... anyone knows, please?

P.S. DS says today's pledge was in Chinese.. not all can remember the Chinese pledge.. so they pretend to know & murmur along.. LOL..

Errm..... Do we need to login to see the test dates ?

If need to, what is the userid and password ?

Dear Emelyn

Yes, please. I think it'd be a good idea for us to go into the test date link http://apps.hci.edu.sg/booking/day.php?day=18&month=01&year=2012 regularly to check if teachers have put in more & more & more & more test dates. I just found another test.. Math Class Test.. 1 Feb. >.<[/quote]


Oops.. sorry, Emelyn.. forgot to reply.. no need password. ^_^v

Hi there parents!

First, thank you for all the updates. Let me update some stuff from DS ( 1O1 ).
1. DS came back and told me QMCT is \"Questioning Mind, Critical Thinking\". Anyone got that too?
2. Both of us kind of compiled a list of accounts to check everyday at least 2x a day :
- His personal email account
- EMB
- His HMT and Form Teacher's wikispace for class info and even hw
- new iVLE
- ISP
- IH wikispace
- LSS wikispace ( so far just these few subject wikispaces )
- Test dates ( Resource Booking )
Did I miss out any thing?
3. He handed up his chinese essay. His teacher must have reviewed a few and commented that the class essays very lousy. O-O. He made the pupils read the Monkey God ... some can read some not so good. TODAY, teacher asked the class to read chapters 1 to 3 ALL OVER AGAIN, for story telling the next day. :rant: DS cannot finish. Eye lids closed by 10.30pm.
4. LSS teacher mentioned they need to bring $2 to buy test tube case on Friday. Anyone got this too? And teacher also told them to bring t t to school after CNY for lab.

Have a few questions :
1. Will school be dismissed at 10am on Fri? Cos' if you check the trials list, there are some trials this Friday from 4 to 6 I think ... moreover this is the eve of the eve of the eve of CNY :?
2. Oh yes! I am sure by now most of the DSes have prepared the subject files based on requirement by teachers? Question is, do we have to bring the relevant subject files to school, based on timetable? This is quite a bulk. Not heavy yet but bulky ! DS says his classmates bring files to school everyday! Now he brings files BUT in separate bag!!! So 2 bags. :slapshead:

OK ... that's it for now...
GOOODNITE......... :snooze:

Morning, DS install the Ambon CD during December but instead of DS going thru those topics, DD was the one curious and going thru and playing with it as there were some mini questions to answer after each topic.

DS told me last week that teacher told them to get some Science textbooks to read up themselves. They can ask from their friends from other secondary sch to see which books they are currently using.

Yeap, DS going to try English debate too. :imcool:

Good morning to all ! DS logged onto EMB for the first time last night. 慢三秒I know And thank goodness for having checked the messages as he needed to bring a hard boil egg for IH this morning. But I seriously wonder, other than EMB and IVLE, do the students need to access the rest daily ? Its time consuming. Can parents of seniors provide guidance on which are useful and which aren't ?


DS had QMCT yesterday too. No comments other than teachers are very nice Also had to buy the test tube casing. For monkey god, had to analyse the theme song for a tv series. Where music class is concern, I think DS completely switched off as he had no concerns over the songs he needs to prepare. So thank you to parents here for the info.

Before dozing off, DS read a couple of pages of chinese paper he brought back. I really like this as I have been a total failure in getting him to pick up one before. I wonder if the school will continue to provide the papers going forward.
