      Suggest your DS packed as per they suggest. They are probably engaging in some games and activities which will require the kids to be dirtied, thus the need to change clothes 😉 .

      And maybe you should consider letting DS bring some \"older\" and \"thinner\" tops (not too hot) and bottoms to the camp. Differentiate which he should wear in daytime and which he should wear in night time for sleep. In case the older tops come back in condition not fit for washing, you can throw them away without feeling too much heartache :evil:. Same goes for shoes.

      The top must be school related and we counted we have exactly 5 sets of school related T shirts so he is bringing all.
      Bottoms never specified so we just let him bring black colours bottom.
      Some parents actually rushed down to ACSI or bibi baba to buy extra t shirts .

      Oh btw heard that bibi baba has shifted to Far East Shopping Centre (Not Far East Plaza, is the one next to Liat towers)

      really? bibi baba shifted? is their phone number still the same?

          Ds brought home some worksheets on proverbs too - but that was before the March holidays. About 10 pages long. Some three words chen yu some four words. But he took days to complete - everyday do a bit - and had to check chen yu dictionary a lot. So to complete it overnight...hmmm...can be quite draining.

            Yes, you're right.

            DD said the teacher did not collect the worksheet today!

            The 谚语 is various from 5 words to 14 words. DD knows close to half and need to learn and memorize the remaning.

              Girls are girls, very obedient. Most boys may simply forget to do and wait for teacher to go after them.

                At least your dd knows almost half. Quite good already. My ds i think only knows a small fraction of it . He is very weak in Chinese.

                It's good they memorise the proverbs - will come in handy both in zhuo wen and main paper. I'm trying to encourage ds to memorise the proverbs - everyday at least five of them. Not just memorise but know how they are used in sentences.

                  my ds hardly seems to have any school work. Any idea how he should prepare for midyear exams? He’s in IP so not sure if getting question papers is relevant.

                    Hi, times flies and the mid year exam will be started immediately after the 1st May Holiday.


                    The subjects tested are similar to Primary school like EL, MT, Math and Science only.

                    No exam for Geo and D&T!

                        Hi Pen,

                        I think they do have some mini test but seldom see the paper return for signature.

                        Yes, you're right as DD still have quite sufficient time for revision.

                        As such, the focus will be in Math and Science since Geo is not going to be tested.
