Btw the latest incident, ds bought an egg tart supposedly for 80 cts. He gave $2 and the seller gave him 20 cts!

If what have been said here are true, the canteen operator must be taken to task. Please let the school know. We have not received any complaint from DS regarding given wrong change. Maybe he bought from different stalls. Nevertheless, people who take advantage of children should be taken to task.

Any parents volunteer here who can help us to reflect?

btw, any parents here have your son at the after school care at Bartley Christian Church?

Hi Parents,

Can any parents shed light on the format for 口语活动 课文朗读? My son is in P1 and there is this test next week. The teacher gave out a note to study chapters 6-15 of the chinese textbook but there was no other instruction.
Are the boys supposed to memorise the passages? Or are they given the texts to read? Will the hanyupinyin be available too?
Without knowing the format, I am clueless on how to prepare DS for the test. Appreciate any advice please. Thanks.

There is no need to memorize for 课文朗读 as the teacher will ask the students to do a lucky draw and pick one story to read. They must know how to read the text fluently and loudly. You can ask your boy to practise reading all the stories in front of you. As long as he knows how to read the words, he should be fine. I must check with DS later if the hanyu pinyin is included as well. Best is not to depend on the HYPY as that would impede his fluency.


I got DS to practise one story each day and would correct his intonation for certain portions so as to improve his fluency. I would check his enunciation for words which tend to get swallowed when said too fast. I also reminded him to be as loud as possible.

No hypy provided.

Hi! Can anyone here share about the wushu school team? How many times do they practice a week, the demands, etc? My son told me he has been asked to join the school team (frankly I am not sure if he heard correctly) but I like to be prepared and make an informed decision. He has his tuition classes and his soon-to-have duty as altar boy. So I don’t want him to over commit.
