Yes, Bebe - my gal is in P3 Lily … is yours too?

I heard that some of the gals in her class has CCA as well - Choir, Tennis.
Aiyo, these hv more days to stay back … so poor thing! And for us (FT wking parents), it’s a logistic nightmare!

Cowgraz, our gals are in the same class then. She has Dance Club that requires her to stay till 530-545pm twice a week. I was so glad that she did not sign up for Choir last year - sure burnt us all out.

I am SAHM with no helper, if hubby is using the car or not avail to fetch my gal, I have to think of transport arrangement to pick her up in sch. Last year they have pte bus operator to send them home at 6pm, but this year there was no news if the service is still on-going. It was quite difficult to hail taxi at that hour..and now with the extra peak hour taxi surcharge..$$$ and also clashes with my toddler's meal time!

I hope to keep my daughter away from CCA until it is compulsory.
Last year P1, she had to stay back twice a week for remedial. If she has CCA as well, that means she will hardly be at home.

Yes, I tried emailing the form teacher to start enrichment a week later … but it was not successful. Feel sorry for her as many pple wld already been in Holiday Mood. Sigh I think I’m now "blacklisted" by the Tr for being a bothersome mother!!!

I cannot understand why remedial cannot start next week...my son will be dismissed at 1030am on Fri. Daughter not only doesn't have early dismissal but remedial as well on both days :yikes:
Anyway, I've informed both teachers daughter will start remedial next wk as this week I'm busy with urgent errands and have logistic prob picking her.

Dear parents,

Any one knows about this book "essential fiction" for P3s. The Tr asked for it but it’s not part of the booklist. Search all the web still no idea!

Thanks for anyone who knows.
