Now they go to different classes for chinese class. Not sure why they do that.. And I don't have details of the new chinese teacher now. Anyone with same problem?

dunno whether this info still relevant to you ...
havent been active here since ...

anyway, P1s different classes for CL2 = streaming

i'm for it actually ... think it's good for both teachers and students
now at least the CL2 class can learn at more or less the same pace ...
if u think abt it, this of cos doesnt mean that those weaker in this subject will fall further behind ... the CL teacher is now able to set the pace instead of having stragglers who eventually lose interest when they cant catch up with the rest of the class prior to streaming ...

Hi,


I am new here. Want to ask anybody know What different between
St de la salle and st gabriel? Is it true st gabriel more relax and
Less pressure for kids? Currently i am staying at west area and
plan to move to north east 2-3 years later on, and yet to decide
put my kid to school nearby north east or put here first then transfer
Later on. Do anybody has experienced transfer to another school?
What is the procedure? If i reg at st gabriel, The distance will be too far.
And My dd will need to wake up 5:00 am. Really tough. Please advise, thanks

Suryadt,

When is your girl P1? If still 2-3yr n not decide, get somewhere nearly. Is very tire for them if travel distance is far. Plus there is lot of homework for DLS. Like it or not, lot of home => better chance to get higher grade. u may decide to get tuition later which is tougher to allocate time.

If u thinking of ok ok school, then put in any west and move to any east school will not be much diff. Now my girl take school bus from CCK, she already need wake up 545 in order to catch bus

My view is in CCK, South view is best. This link might help.

What is good depends on your criteria. If its based on top PSLE student then I think South View is better.


Heard South View used rote learning so I heard from my colleague that she decided against South View as it will stifle her child’s creativity.
