[ugly duckling]

Hi i am new to this forum and have been a silent reader of thos thread and the interesting article .


Mangai, my son also born in 2008 and me too intend to sign up as PV but i am staying >2km from the school dun noe will the school reject me or not.

Anyway I will be sending in my form this year to try my luck if base on distance they reject me then i think i have to consider other school already.

The form can be downloaded from the school website.

Hi ugly duckling,

You should be fine to PV but you need to consider the risk since you are out of 2km.
Based on last year intake, 2B out of 2km requires ballot and 2C within 1km requires ballot.

Any mummies here can advice if there is CA and SA for P1 kids?


Anyone has past year test papers to share?

Any P1 parents here? Thought we can share pointers and info. My girl in P1S3. So far she is enjoying sch. Homework seems to be minimal which is good.

Same here. My girl is in 1S4. Can’t even remember if she ever brought once home.

Hi Curis77

I am quite happy with the no homework so far :). Just let them enjoy sch first. My gal is very shy and quiet type, I was initially worried abt her coping with Pri sch. Am glad she is managing so far.

Momresourse, thanks for the advice. I will be sending in the pv form to the school within these 1 to 2 weeks.

ugly duckling,

Wish you all the best… some tip to share to clock in hours: become a traffic warden; as I have been seeing the staff and even teachers doing it currently, probably the PV program has not kicked in…

Hello mummies,
My ds brought home 2 pages of maths homework once that he had completed less than 2 minutes. However, he shown me a maths worksheet that was completed in school which I am impressed with the amount of work covered (given short time frame in school and holidays and CNY activities)… there were number bond, number in sequence and in-between, writing number in words.

He also told me that there is a English test or mini exercise that was conducted in class. Not sure about Chinese and other subjects. But so far, he is enjoying school.

Thumbs up to the teachers who are very considerate to postpone spelling due to CNY week.

Can mummies from P2 onwards advice the following:

1. Any CCA for P1 children?
2. P1 kids need to go back to school duing March/June holidays typically?
3. Any exam CA, SA for P1?
4. Do they have ranking in P1?
5. Does the P1 move on same P2 class in subsequent years?

Calling P1 mummies of Yr2010,
If you still have your child worksheets/test/exam papers, pls pm me to deal.

Hi Ugly Duckling,


I’ve visited the school before in 3 Jan to collect the PV form but they just asked me for the contact number. They called me up the subsequent week and asked me for my e-mail address for further details. They finally sent me an e-mail saying their PV scheme has limited vacancies and thus only the shorlisted parent will be selected for interview. The deadline for the PV form submission is on 10Feb. FYI, the PV scheme is for the children who is in K1 now (born in 2007) and going to register in 2013.
