@vodkacat

The buttons won’t but the silver paint may drop off if you do not put inside washing bag besides mentioned button jam washing machine.

The ring may rust, which I have mentioned once it stain outside, the shirt has to be thrown away. But you can find / buy similar other non rust rings from outside (test it first).


@juz4moi

Some KS schools conduct some kind of test during orientation to group P1 students. But I do not think that CH does this. So no top P1 class.

Teach your own kids … hmm … You are lucky if they do not argue with you and pay attention to what you teach. Try it out for the first year or first half year. If you also cannot cope, hee hee … than tuition lor …

My boy start Chinese Tuition late P1 and Maths P2. My wife and my role is just to fine tune him weeks before exam (of course you have to take leave to coach them).

Science (his favourite) and English (his weakest), no tuition yet.

English tuition, still looking for a good one.

I think it is most important for make them have interest in the subject and they will be motivated to learn more.

Thanks JonC for your advice.

My boy does not argue when i coach him but he \"Bargain\" :roll: I'm still able to keep my cool...so far so goooood :xedfingers:
But i'm also worried that my caoching may not be in sync with the teaching from the school.
Your boy having Maths tution? Tot CHS maths is not using MOE textbk...will your boy get confused?

Hi,


Would anyone know which is the top class in P1?

Thanks,
juz4moi

There is no top class in p1. And the whole p1 class just goes to p2 wholesale. Only \"streaming\" takes place at the end of p2.

The buttons won't get rusty, and if you sew the buttons on, then you won't have to deal with rings.

DIY, lah. I didn't do(I can't be bothered), but I saw my friend did it for her son's shirt. Just sew it to the sides of the button hole, effectively sewing that button-hole shut. Then the button can go into the top button-hole. Erm...make sense or not?

I've even seen mothers who sewed a flip-over patch underneath so that it covers the securing rings (for those who use the rings, lah). So interesting. I think they cut patches of material from old t-shirt. So that the rings don't touch the boy's skin , esp at the shoulders.
