Checking with P2 parents:


Anyone signed up CCA for their P2 kids recently? When will we know the outcome?

I only saw the notification letter on specific CCAs like Choir, CL Orchestral... i reckon they are trying to select the students early so as to put them in the same Pri 3 class next yr.

Seems that the workload is heavier compared to P1, they hv homework almost daily (seldom a day without) this yr.
My child came home afew times with several pages of Chinese workbook needed to be done and I even asked him R U SURE U NEED TO FINISH ALL THE PAGES?..

I also noticed that their frequency of Chinese spelling reduced q abit since late P1..

Hi iLoveChubby,

According to what I read, once selected the kids will start the CCA this year at P2... Oh yes, think you have a point.. maybe it's for the class allocation next year. But because my girl is currently having her enrichment classes on Monday mornings so I need to arrange if she's going for the CCA, hence I need to find out when we will be notify of the results...

Definitely the workload is heavier than P1... but I feel still manageable... Cannot imagine P3/4 what's going to be like....

Pei Chun has no open house but I know Kheng Cheng has. Not sure if its over or not thou!

Hi mar mum, how to find out about open house?

Sorry for the late reply! During my child's K2, we received information on the open house. It was three years ago thou........ thus I assume that they still have open house this year too.

Hi Parents of Pei Chun,


Anyone’s child in any before or after school centre near the school? Any feedback on them, if any. I understand that there is one new centre at blk 4, Skylace. Any feedback on this one too?

Today is Racial Harmony Day! Understand from my child that there may be some stalls selling food and games/ activities (he was telling me if there is the "carriage" ride like last year, he would take it). I think he was referring to the trishaw… Any idea what is available for the celebration today? No info nor handout if the kids should bring extra $$ for the activites or food!

Pei Chun has lots of CL homework because it is a SAP school. Lots of CL homework in P1 and P2 because no need to stay back. All P3 and P4 pupils have to stay back for 2 hours once a week on Friday 1:30-3:30pm for Higher Chinese Language lessons. Parents who stay far away have to arrange your own transport. P5 and P6 pupils have a choice to decide whether to drop Higher Chinese. If drop, no need to stay back 2 hours once a week for HCL lessons which is currently conducted on Wednesdays.

My girl is in P2 this year.

Actually these 2 years (almost) in Pei Chun, I feel that the communication between school and parents has been lagging. A lot of info were not very updated and even if given, they were not complete/adequate. Somehow, this gives me an impression that things are not very systematic/organized...

For eg. info about the Racial Harmony Celebrations were inadequate for parents/kids to know what to expect or what to prepare... I rem we were quite lost when my girl was in P1 because we were not sure how the school was going to do it. The only thing we were told was to dress in some costumes.

Please correct me if I am wrong...

May I check is the result for the CCA postings out for the additional enrolment for P2s? Read from the PN that it should be released last week… so no news means???
