Townsville Primary

[Monster Mummy]

Hi,


In October,the school will send you a letter stating which class the child is in and what color group the child belong to。The color only meant to use when buying pe t-shirt. In normal days, I would not be sure how the color works on. On the day, the teacher appointed is not the form teacher and you will get to see only school start. There is no assessment test and children will assess on the classroom after school start. If the child is weak in read or math, the school will put the child in learning support. if there is doubt, you can talk to the teacher on the day of orientation to understand school approach.

Hi Gureishi,


it's good to know another parent from Townsville! :rahrah:
we took the mrt to AMK Hub last week and DS was pretty excited to be able to catch a glimpse of the school on the way.
did u watch the national day rally too? i thought i saw Mr Quek on tv- we spoke to him once during a P1 registration talk for amk schools and he was enthusiastically promoting his CCA Hockey to us cos they are looking for more boys to join the team. very nice and friendly even though we took up a huge chunk of his time asking questions more related to the school itself rather than hockey!

Hi,


I heard from my children and he has announced to the students. So it is the new principal a different school management style. But will miss him as he is quite friendly principal.

Yup I also heard fr my DS, then I went to moe website to check and is stated on the changes of the new principals. The new principal is from Rulang and they produced the top psle result student last year.

I think that it is a norm practice that principal will get to change every 5 years.

As we are looking forward the new principal, we should never forget for the past few year what Mr Ong had put his great effort to the school.All the best to Mr Ong and welcome Mrs Liu.
