Hi to all the sec 1 parents!

Anybody would like to share any insights of the Sarimbum Camp? My DS had a very quick lunch, shower and sleeping soundly now.

Same comment for lunch & shower. Food so so. Sleep abt 6 to 6.5 hr per night. 3 types of sleeping area, hut (best sleeping area, but cramp), dorm followed by multi purpose hall (suppose to be the lousiest but spacious).

My ds was exhausted and didn’t want to talk much. Looking at his dirty clothes, shoes and socks, it must be quite tough.

Can someone provide more details (place, time etc.) about the walkathon tomorrow? Is it compulsory for all students? TIA.

There is a letter to parents about this event, contents similar to that in the EMB. I just remember that need to reach school by 7am. No mention of what time the event will end. Parent must write in to Director of Consortium if child cannot attend event.

:thankyou:


Thank you all for the info.

I asked my ds about the letter and he said he didn't get one. :mad: He said there would be no bus back to the school. I will not be able to pick him up, so he will have to take MRT and it will be his first time taking MRT alone. Hope he can find his way home.

Do you have access to your ds’s EMB? My ds refused to give me the access and said it is meant for students only. But he sometimes forgets to pass me school’s letter, notice or give it to me the last minute and it could be disruptive to my schedule. Can’t the school send by email to parents directly or is it available somewhere at the Portals?
