Parents, did i read it correctly in the memo that next year, P4 students will be swapping their classes?

As a future Maris Stella parent I am curious about the trial. Are they looking to change the school hours?

Sorry for not being clear. The trial is for students to arrive at the school slightly later. Currently students arrive a around 7am for reading till morning assembly (which is around 7.25am, I think). The school is planning to remove this reading period wef next year.

Sorry I am not too sure about the details. I just scanned thru the letter quickly and thus, may have missed out some details. Only remember the bus timing.

The 2012 P4s will be allocated to different P5 classes.

I am more against the Quick Bites stall and wish they would stop selling fried junk like popcorn chicken, satay, hashbrown, processed food like siew mai etc. It's not cheap and there is no nutrition.


I am not asking for Jamie Oliver standard but they could at least ensure all stalls are selling proper meals that serve a combination of carbo, protein, vege and fruit. The Quick Bites stall should switch to selling freshly made sandwiches ala Subway and ready-packed chicken salads.

All sweet and gassy drinks should also be banned, except for isotonic drinks and beverages like Nutritea and Yakult. They should be selling HL milk if possible. I remember I used to get a packet of milk (with some cartoon on the packet) during recess. What happened to that program?

Talk about the Quick Bite stall, this is the stall that has started selling ICE CREAM!

And this is the stall that has short changed ds! Ds declared he will never buy from this store again.

It was supposedly random, but we noticed all the kakis in obvious cliques were separated! Academically, it was really random.

Strange the memo has no mention of p3 class allocation...

I will listen to see if the boys across the road are picked up at the same time or later!

I am not surprise that this happen. I believe these drivers will use their bus to pick up workers after sending our kids to the school. They don't want their schedule to be affected as well.

I just feel that if we are still leaving the house at the same time, then the reading period should continue. If not, the students will be playing and running around the school. Without teachers' supervision, accidents can happen. But then again, it can be quite demanding asking the teachers to come to school so early. I do sympathize the teachers.
