Hi Yenoscar,

No worries...actually the first day address by the Principal is just very brief info., nothing that we really need to know :lol: If you have time, do go through the slides I mentioned above, you will get a better idea of how the students will be assessed (in SA1 & SA2) and what is being taught.

Ha, during my time, my mum has to queue overnight for a place for my elder sis (I then got in thru siblings priority) in the nearest primary school fm home; and it's not even a popular one at present day.

By the way, who is your son's form teacher? Just wondering if my girl's batch of teachers will be following them to Primary 2.

Hi Tulip,

Sorry...i didn't even get hold of the form teacher's name on that day :roll:
When we sent him, a teacher (i think) asked for the name then hand-out a name tag to us, then she just moved-on to others parents ....rather chaotic, so we didn't have a good opportunity to ask, by then we being urged to leave the children and proceeed for the briefing.
While at 1 point when all parents are gathered for filling-up of forms, 1 parent did ask but we got message as tentatively the teacher that show the kids around would be the form teacher, but cannot remember a name was mentioned/given.
At the end of the day when we pick up our son from the hall, no 1 come upfront and introduce herself as my son form teacher. Or simply because we didn't ask around either..??
Anyway, I never ask my son after that as well. We only make sure he knows where his class, the nearest toilet and the canteen

Does anyne knowa the benefits of joining the KCP’s Alumni? Wondering whether it helps my kid in his stay in KCPPS?

Alumni is network/social gathering for the old students of the school, no benefit to the current student studying there.

I was thinking that I can also rub shoulder with the committee board so that my kid will be \"taken care\" of... using some influence

Hi yenoscar,


My girl will be having new classmates come next year. They've all been streamed to different classes for the new academic year. But we don't know which are the 2 top classes. Some parents told me the top classes are class A & B, but some told me A & B are not necessarily the 2 best classes (too obvious) :?

In any case, over time we will know by tracking which class the top student goes to

At Pri 2 & Pri 3, the top class is \"A\" followed by \"E\". The rest are mixed.

I think from pri 4 onwards, the kids are grouped according to their academic results in this order A, E, B, F, C, G, D, H.

then you should join the parents support group and be a committee member there ...

Hi,

Here are the ans :

1. You'll only need one for each color. The files are for filing your child's school worksheets for the different subjects.

2. Last year, the diary was not ready yet on first day of school, they were subsequently issued to the students when there were available.

3. I had my girl's name tags ready early, but I remember seeing the other kids have them sewn onto their uniforms by the 2nd week. So, I guess you should be able to collect them in one or two week's time.

Hope the above info. helps.

Cheers.
