Hi pinky88, how is yr DS getting on with the SMTP math? My DS said v tough already failed his first quiz :slapshead: but sci still manageable . Haha first time I see him doing his math homework so seriously .

Happy New year n gong xi fa chai to you

Sorri, haven been reading this thread for a while. DS has been staying up late since sch reopen. Can c that SMTP is not easy though he hasnt complain yet. He juz got bk his maths quiz today, manage to juz hit A1 but this quiz is not graded, guess its a revision for e boys n perhaps e teacher wants to find out their standard.

I'm worried when i c the rate he is studying, keep reminding him to relax n not stress himself too much. The stress is increasing every yr..sigh:(


Happy new yr to u n ur family too. Btw which class is ur DS in? Mine is 3O3.

Hi pinky, ya d quiz was not graded btw it was done on d 1st wk of sch term d whole class failed d quiz , d teacher just wanted to used this quiz to tell d boys they still have plenty of things to learn

Can see DS is more serious in doing his homework still managed to sleep at around 10pm for now but will not know when it will last.They start their term 1 test(Math) on 3rd Feb , hopefully can do ok for this term as not much time to revise . After the tests they must go full force for their CCA as most of d competitions are in march n April . So tiring for d boys. :salute:

Oh my DS is in 3P3. Btw when is yr DS doing his boarding sch? Mine is applying for term2 .

The 山歌，when I was in Hwa Chong JC, I remember we sang it very slowly one lei. Like the normal speed for this song. Now, they sing it so fast. I think the opponents (in competitions where they usually sing this son) will roll on the floor laughing ..... How to know what they singing ??

Yep, 山歌 was the first cheer I asked DS about and when he sang it, I was stunned. It bore no resemblance to what I remembered it to be. Wondered if the kids actually know what they are muttering at that bullet speed

Yeah, most do not know what it is or how to sing and just blast random words out of their mouth.

[quote=\"wkong\"]Good morning,


Just a gentle reminder that this evening, 27 Jan (5:30pm - 9:00pm) there is a Secondary One Parents' Symposium at HCI. It is held at High School Auditorium (English Session) and Drama Centre (Chinese Session)

Cheers,
wkong

Thanks for the reminder. Seems that it is going to be a long session ( 3.5 hours) and the school must be downloading a lot of info to the parents Better bring a notebook along .... :rotflmao:

DS said the trial dates calendar not correct one. He mentioned that he sent an email to someone (dunno teacher or senior), and was asked whether he plays any racquet game. After that, he was asked to go for the trial.

When I see him tonight, I will ask him for more details. And then tell you.

DS said that there was an announcement in the EMB about the squash trial happening on 25 Jan. So, he replied the message, and was asked to go for the trial.
