Seems like different class has different days for Spelling & tingxie. 1 Luke is on Monday for Spelling & tues for tingxie. Tue sonny brought back spelling result which needs parent signature. Just curious what’s the mode of communication for other form teachers to liase with parents. Email?

For 1 Joseph it is email. If the teacher just want to check something she called directly.

Hi parents,


Anyone has any tips to help my P1 boy overcome his phobia for school and waking up early at 5.30 am every day. My boy always complains of tummy ache every night before going to bed and he does not want to take the school bus. I suspect he reaches school too early around 6.40am and feels lost and lonely in school.

Hi, I am a newbie here. My son is in P3.


I drive him to school everyday and am wondering if any parents out there wants to carpool. We can take turns on alternate week basis. Other arrangements also can. We are staying at Braddell View.

Yup, school buses can be stressful places. My DS tells me that an older boy hit him in the head last week. And the older boys also like to call the p1 boys names and not let them sit in certain seats.

Thanks for sharing. My son only told me the boys in the bus are noisy and he couldn’t rest most of the time. He is the only P1 boy and it seems like he can’t mingle with the older boys.

need to teach our boys what to do if they got pick or bully…


there is one talk in March, something like "how to handle bullies" is quite good as I have attended it last year. P1 mummies, you might be interested to sign up for it.

hi ice78


my boy is in p1 too and takes the school bus. so far it has been OK, but i did notice that he is one of the few P1s on the bus. i warned him that the older boys on the bus may spew vulgarities and more ill behaved etc. and true enough, he experienced it himself. i told him you can hear what they say but do not learn from them. is it the boys on the bus that is bothering him?? i noticed that the older boys do ‘usher’ my son to the seat when he boards. so they’re not so bad, but yeah school buses can be stressful so need to find out the root of the problem.
