[quote=\"PiggyLalala\"]RI PTM is tomorrow. Just curious, do you still go for the PTM now that our boys are in the secondary school?

Is the PTM only for Year 2 parents? Never hear DS (Year 1) mention anything about PTM..

Firefly!.. PTM is for y1 parents also !... Didn't u receive SMS from the school?.. A memo is given out as well earlier... But booking of teachers end at 11am today ...[/quote]Aiyo, SMS was sent to DH's hp and DH forgot to tell me..
Just checked with DS.. He says parents don't need to see teachers, unless 'invited' to see them.. That was what DS told me during the previous PTM (I didn't attend too)..
Vlim, are you meeting any teachers tomorrow?

[vlim]

Hi firefly, yes I going to meet his teachers though not ‘invited’… It is just like the ptm in first semester la …

Some jrs who perform v well in the Open category, will join SIMO training at NUS on national team level. A couple who are really really outstanding get to convert their math club merit CCA into Core CCA status, ie, they can leave the other earlier core to train in math 3 times a week.

So, merit CCA can be converted to core CCA. Who is the one who can decide?

[/quote]heard they only offer 1-2 a year. very exclusive. one of my DS's friend there. he says that offer comes from teachers. parents must approve also. generally those students who have done very well in the SIMO training at NUS. there are a few RI teachers also involved in the SIMO training so they would probably have a clearer picture.

I also did not attend the PTM in the first semester.. :oops:
Are you meeting the teachers of ALL the subjects?

Btw, DS is visiting NYGH tomorrow afternoon to attend a talk by Starbucks (something to do with Geography :scratchhead: ).. DS says they will get to savour food & beverages there.. Is your DS going too?

Thanks. So, it is only for those very exceptional cases.

Just read from channel news asia forum that the sex scandal between former teacher and top sec boy comes from Raffles.


What a shocking news and the head prefect had sent a mass sms to all Sec 4 boys asking them not to speak to the press. One of the boy then wrote to the press exposing the gag order. OMG…

OMG indeed. The teacher must hv been fantasizing herself in the role of Kate Winslet's character in the movie The Reader.
