Can I ask usually how much sets of uniforms do we need to purchase for Pri 1? Do we need to customise extra name tags?

[Layla]

Depends on your schedule and needs. How many days of PE n how often you do laundry.

My DS has 3 days of PE, plus 3 days sports so he wears PE 4 days a week.
My DD has 2 PE days only.
The name tags comes in a set of 8 per order I think. Can tear out and re-use
So exciting. Orientation on 24/11! Do u intend to sign up for parent volunteer?

[skysky22]

I see.Will have to wait for the timetable then.What does the parent volunteer involve doing? It’s not egger same as the volunteer that parents sign on to get registered for phase 2A right?

[Layla]

Yea, maybe you can get 2 sets each and see how it goes.

Parent Volunteer can be ad hoc or regular basis. There will be a form where You can indicate your interests and strengths. It's different from the 40-hour volunteer for registration.

I am a FTWM so hard to volunteer. But what are the benefits for becoming such a volunteer?

[lim72]

I realised that they have more pe days in lower primary like 3times a week. So I bought 3sets of pe when he was in p1-3. And I intend to keep only 2sets from p4 onwards.


I always have 5sets of uniforms since p1 as I soak, wash & iron them at the end of the week.

those under phase 2A are - alumni school activities.
alumni activities are different from Parent volunteer duties (for parents whose kids currently studying inside KH).

alumni activities do not overlap into Parent volunteer duties.
Their objectives and duties are separate; different.

my p2 dd received 2013 class timing notification from teacher yesterday. It is stated all pupils to be in school by 7:10am and assembly starts at 7:30am. I thought it is radiculous that the kids need to be in school by 7:10am! Can’t they arrive by 7:25am, so long as before assembly starts?

School reporting time & lessons start time, no change, that is same as present morning session. Sometimes, when my hubby send p5 ds to school & gets there at 7.15-7.20am, no problem. But not sure about next year.


I am surprised they extend school hours by 30mins (1 period) on 3 days, Mon, Wed and Fri. Wonder extra period is for academic subjects or?
And p1 and p2 will have remedial & enrichment classes after school hours on certain day?? Hope this is not the weekly supplementary classes that p3 above are having.

Anyone knows when they mean enrichment, they are referring to CCA right? As for remedial, i assume is extra lesson for those who need?
