I didn't know got maths also...DS told me only English and Chinese stretch prog.

Dun worry too much, the Stretch is an enrichment program. This is especially helpful for those family that couldn't afford tuition.

I felt the school ought to have provided ALL parents with more info about this stretch program, e.g. the objectives, selection criteria, duration, etc.,

My dd was happily not required to attend any programs, as she was told by her teachers the program meant for "students who need to improve on their grades"…

Hi WorkingMommy,


Yesterday is stretch english right but DD told me is math...

Hi Vez,
Understand from my DS Stretch Eng & Maths are together. Yesterday only 5 students turned up so Teacher taught Maths. Not sure if what he said is true or not. Maybe it is alternate week for Eng/Maths?

hi workingmummy,


I checked DS bag yesterday (he's in 2H also) - the maths textbook is in his bag. I asked if his teacher wanted to collect it, but he said no.

Teacher explained that the students can leave their books in class, can also bring back if desired.

I thought I saw from the newsletter that only P5/6 have CA1 soon?

Hope his fever has abated. FYI, I find that 'ling yang' very effective to bring down fever.

Heard that canteen prices have gone up in HWS…anyone got details? I’m not sure how this stacks up against other schools and if quality is better now.

you are very perservering. I gave up when DS came back with half eaten food. my consolation is that at least he didn't throw away the food but 'came clean' with me. but now, he has to 自生自灭.

Just wondering if 1. money is enough; 2. canteen food have updated so it's more palatable.

[hnghng]

Oic. My ds last time only used 60-70cents to buy the food.

Now most of the day he used $1.
I thought he can eat more food …haha…
tonight check with him.
