Yes. My P2 had swimming during her PE lessons this year. It is not a CCA.

its stated on the booklist as optional.

Buddhist study is optional. However, my DS2 recalled that from P1 to P2 it is conducted for 1 period/week during regular classes and that it is compulsory. Please check with the school if you do not intend your kid to take these classes for religious or other reasons. From P3 to P6, Buddhist study is optional and it is conducted once a week for 1 1/2 periods after regular classes.

P3 - P6 students also can take optional Conversational Malay Program (CMP) for 1 1/2 periods once a week after regular classes.

Hi netserver,


Are you referring to the workshop by the parent volunteers?
The orientation should be on 28 Dec.

Hi csb,


U could refer to the small green booklet distributed to parent in Oct’09. The booklet stated clearly what to pack for the 1st day of school or else come for the orientation on the 28 Dec’09 to confirm items to pack.

See u there cause my son is in P1 next year, too.

Thanks, I forgot about that :oops:


Which class will your child be in?

Hi netserver, could you share any helpful tips/advice from the workshop?

I missed it as I was overseas.

Hi csb,


He is in P1G next year. Is our kids happen to be in the same class? I think the orientation is more important where the student will get to make the principal, form teacher and get to familiarise themselves the school. The talk on 26 Nov on preparation for P1 basically try to ensure the parents the following:

1) you are in safe hands cause the teachers and PSG would help your child the first week of school (during recess time especially) and

2) get your child mentally prepare for the big change which the child would have been or going to be brief thru if they were in PAP and childcare centres.
