Hi Mao,


U r very observant! Yes that’s her.
I had her hair cut short coz she has problem waking up early to tie her hair.
Whenever she is anxious, she’ll have stomach problem.

hi


My DS is in 1D too. I met the teacher on the 2nd day and find her very fierce. My DS said she got scolded on Wed for not putting on PE attire. There is no PE on Wed, is it necessary to wear attire on that day? Also, i noted that she started to bring homework home. Do your kids bring back hmk too?

Hi Concern_mun,


DS2 is in 1 hope. Occasionally he will bring back some homework to do. Today he said he has some homework on health education and math. Normally teachers at TGPS will try to let the students finish their homework in class. They will rarely have to do homework at home except during weekends.

Any 1 hope parents going to meet the parents next week? I need someone to fill me in with information next week as I will be attending my DS1 session :-). Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi all,


How was your MTP session?

I attended my DD P5 MTP and was overwhelmed with the syallabus and FT/Co-FT approaches to the teaching. It's definitely a great jump from P4. I will have to work harder and more diligently alongside with her. :nailbite:

Attended the P5/P6 forum at the hall after the classroom session, another eye-opening experienced for me. Especially when the Principal shared the T-score calculations with the parents, i was flabbergasted with the formula set by MOE...now i will only pray hard that my DD put in her 101% in her preparation for PSLe... :xedfingers:

After all the nailbiting feeds, the good news was the 2012 PSLE results was a great sharing and according to the slide - 100% passes in the mainstream. 18 scored above aggregate of 250. Also a few exemplary students were showcased as using their DSA for admission to school of their choices. In this aspect, i would agree with the P's words that all TGPS teachers work very hard with the students and are in the right track of holistic education.

Glad that I managed to attend the P3 MTP session and met with a few mommies from my DS2 class. @rejoice, it's nice to finally say Hello after all our correspondence in this forum. Looking forward to more networking with the 3D parents

A good weekend to all.

Hi Astee,


It was very nice to finally meet you face to face. Sorry that I might have appeared a bit slow in responding to you. I did not expect to see you there. Haha. The 3D kids will have learning journey coming up on 5 Feb. hope we all get to go help up on this trip. Then we will have more chance to get to know each other :-).

I was a bit overwhelmed by the sharing of the teacher. A lot of information and on how the classes are conducted. Looks like P3 is not as relax as P1/2 already. Parents and children will have to work closer and harder. Still like the focuses on class work than on home work. Give kids more time after school.

Hi Astee and Rejoice

Hi Bluebellas,


I only managed to attend the last session of the P3 MTP as i rushed over once my DD class session ended. So if there is any notes to share, i will be all ears.

I saw your DH, briefly, as i heard a father asking for his DS's assessment form. If i was not mistaken, he was in a Red-Tee. If i known you had asked him to \"hearout\" for my son's name, i would have gone to him to say hello but worried if i suddenly approached him, he would be \"surprised\" like rejoice.

@rejoice, no worries about being slow as there were alot to digest on that forum, so i understand your state of mind.

Yes, if you are able to join the LJ for Zoo, i believe it would be good to register direct to the FT and she can confirm you as the Class PV, usually it's First-come-First-Reserved.

I like the Class FT - she seem strict but in a kind way, the Co-FT looks and sounds a bit soft and children may climb over over..haha. I guess FT will be going on her ML in few months time, so hopefully the transition for the new FT or relief teacher will be smooth.
