CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh)

I called the HOD re the swim lessons. Basically, no way out but parents are welcome to enter the pool an watch for ourselves to allay our fears. She said that they’ve done this last year. The coach to student ratio is 1:10. Personally, still feel it’s quite a large group. Anyway, I have nagged and scared my girl and telling her to join the non-swimmers.

Don't worry...the girls are well taken care of...my daughter told me even some teachers went into the pool.

Hi mummies,


Does anyone know how to access the ask and learn portal for first time users (p1 kids)?

Any mummies of p1 girls already start using them? Can someone share with me the generic password for first attempt? (userid is bc no, yes?)

Thanks in advance!
:salute:

Password is the BC number as well

Anyone got affected by the school bus breaking down this morning? This morning, I received a call from the bus driver and he told me his van couldnt start so he told me to take a cab which is claimable.


So we called a cab and I brought my gal to school and was surprised to see the boss of the bus company around to help out w the traffic. Is he there everyday? Anyone know?

Even the drinks stall uncle is there to help too. U know, this is so cool!! I don't see this happening in other schools.

But I must say I am soooo glad that our gals' school bus vendor has been fantastic and responsible compared to horror stories that I hear.

Though it did caused me some inconvenience but I am not mad at them. At least they are responsible andddddd the main thing isssss I always look forward to going back 'home' (school). U know...once a IJ gal, always a IJ gal! IJ FOREVER! yes, tats how much I love my school!

IJ spirit lives on! :imcool:

The boss of the schoolbus company Mr Ng..a very nice n humble guy. He will help to direct the traffic during peak hours. My gals hv 4 different bus drivers over the last 3 years and all of them are very nice..my gals told me that sometimes the CCA driver will give them biscuits..feel so warm hearted to know that. My current uncle driver is also very generous..will give goodies to the kids during the CNY, Children day or last day of the term.

thats nice of the boss!!! yes yes, my gal's driver too and he will always make sure that the gals are picked up by the caregiver and if the caregiver is late, he will wait or call them!!

u know, i have heard horror stories from my friends that the drivers wld just drop the kids and didnt bother anything else. And that time it was the poor gal's FIRST FEW DAYS in P1 going to student care. Student care teacher was late and the driver just left her there. The poor gal has to ask a stranger for her hp to call her mum.. CAN U IMAGINE???

So we really have to appreciate them and not take them for granted. They are already doing a great job!
