Mee Toh

[Angry Parent]

As far as I know, the two classes are 4-6 and 4-7 both sharing the same EL teacher. The EL teacher is a permanent replacement and not relief. This was assured by an MOE officer. As for the Maths & Science Teacher, she has since step up in giving remedial lessons for those who did not do well in their CA1. I just hope everything will be fine.

Wonder if you notice that the amount of P4 homework seems to be lesser than P3. Nowadays even have time to do top school test papers unlike last year rushing to finish the school's homework.

True that homework is lesser. But my daughter seems to be busy in anything except studies. Anyway I leave it to her to organise her time. But soon I will be sitting beside her for revision. If your child want to go for DSA in P6, P4 end of year results do matter.

Hi Angry Parent, Mrs Amir, the English teacher, is doing a fantastic job! She provides weekly updates of what the children have been taught in class. Responsible and dedicated teacher.


The other thing is they are having their 1.6m run test next week. Wondering if the child feels breathless, will the PE teacher insist that the child continues?Don’t want another tragedy to happen in school like the SCGS incident.

There are so many posts now since I posted in 2009 when my son balloted into MTS. Looks like more MTS parents are more active in this forum now.


Sadly, I am back as I was searching for info to reconsider the viability of staying on in the school. Too much disappointment. Not sure is it my children or the school, or maybe me! Hiaks.

To reply someone's queries on PSG, it is very lacking. I had tried on few occasions (over last few years) to find out more about joining and helping in PSG to no avail. Recently there seems some improvement may happen, though school (mgt) may be reluctant. Hoping with bated breath.

Mrs Amir, was Ms Amalina, is now the new EL teacher for 4-6 & 4-7, in replacement of the prev teacher on leave. She was previously my son's form teacher in P2. I am thankful everyday since the change, that we have her back in our life. She is a rare gem among her peers. Those parents who had her for class will be able to see the difference.

My children are in 4-6 & 1-3 this year. If you are keen to connect, belong to same classes or enthusiastic to lobby for a truly active PSG for MTS, pls pm me and we can discuss further

You may wish to advise your child the following:
1) do not shoot off like 100m dash at onset
2) run at a continuous, even pace
3) slow down if needed, but avoid walking
4) refrain from talking during the run
5) cool down after run by jogging on spot and slowly come to stop.
This avoid burnout and attain better results. My boy came in 2nd for the last few practice run. That is to say a lot for a non-runner.

Hi Shoe Button, I am keen on the PSG. Was trying hard to get myself involved in the school and making contacts around on what are the requirements for it.

Hope the news of the feedback recently will be able to stir some activities to the existing PSG and awaiting for the invite to the coming Vesak Day & Sports Carnival Day for assistance.

Great! If more parents are keen and committed to the real meaning of PSG, we will be able to be a bigger collective voice to the school.

Will share more if I have more info.
Meantime, those who are keen, pls pm me. Cheers!

Hi,

Would like to confirm if Mee Toh is on single session (P1 & P2) since 2013? The school website did not update the school hours and recess time and still show 2012. Will be registering my gal at MTS under 2A2 next week. Any news on Mee Toh student care services, it is going to operate in 2014?

[itskryptic]

Mee Toh has started operating on single session since January this year. Pupils report to school at 7.15 a.m. for flag raising and lessons begin at 7.30 a.m. Classes end at 1.30 p.m. daily.


The school is studying the demand of the services expected in an in-house Student Care Centre. They are conducting a survey to gauge what services to offer when the centre opens in 2014. The school has set aside rooms in the new indoor sports hall block to house the SCC.

Hope this helps!
