Hi, I’m new here.


My daughter is in 2L and her FT and chinese teacher are different this year. I thought the P2 teachers will be the same as P1. Her FT is Mrs Lim and chinese teacher is Mrs See I think. She said both teachers super fierce.

Wanna ask school bus arrangement when the kids have CCA. We live in Punggol so if the kids stay back for CCA in P3, there won’t be school bus home after the activities? Do u know if it’s safe for a P3 girl to take train and buses, making multiple transfers to reach home?

I m not sure if Punggol area has any separate bus/van arrangements for later school timings, you may wish to check with your existing bus driver if he has any contacts.
Frankly I wont advise a 9 yr old girl to travel around alone... if possible, may have to fetch her on your own.
The thing is CCA may not be the only day your DD needs to stay back next year.... From the P3 schedule, at least 2 days are compulsory = CCA and Higher CL class. Other 2 days will be dependent if your DD is joining any AS / EP programmes.

The teachers are very fierce. They want to scare the very naughty ones. Told my son to act like a zombie for a few weeks, before he starts his naughty tricks in class. Ha! Ha!

As long as they get the concepts , don’t worry too much about marks now. It’s their character and kindness that needs to be built up now, so called "substructure" of a person. Many examples of ordinary students doing very well in their O and A levels…
Happy parenting!

What is EP programme? AS is Academic support? Oh dear, if my daughter needs to stay back late everyday from P3 onwards, we'll have to spend cab fare from tpy to punggol after school everyday. I am a full time working mother so need maid to fetch.

Regardless of boy or girl, I feel P3 is still very young to travel alone, especially yours is quite a long journey too. I know some schools have school bus services to pick up students who are going home at a later time. We need to pay extra few dollars per trip. You may like to check with the school.

I share what i have found out from bus vendor.

I stay in Bishan. Called the bus vendor 2 weeks ago to check about bus arrangements if my p3 girl needs to stay back. Apparently there is no transport after the usual after-school hour at 1pm. I was given the contact number of another bus vendor who operates the bus service for HCL on Fridays. Have to pay $4 per trip, as and when if we were to take the bus back. Hence, I think there is no bus services if our kids gotta stay back for CCA or other lesson except HCL on fridays.

Definitely not a good idea for your girl to go back on her own!! She's slightly too young to make her way home herself.

Yes yes, my girl has lots of complains!! Her Chinese teacher very fierce...she's very tired... why the book shop has no stock for all the things she needs to buy... ya btw, the exercise books, Steller Handwriting and Chinese Compo books are all out of stock but the teachers want my girl to bring tomorrow... she is super stressed!! She was asked to stand up because she was not able to pass up the chinese square exercise books that the chinese teacher wanted... haizzz... and I was telling her yesterday to be cool because it was not her fault so the teacher would not scold her. Well I was wrong... :roll:

Time Table was given to my girl yesterday... as well as the CCA schedule and the Jan Newsletter...
