Hi P1 parents,


there are 2 red clear folders, 1 is blank and the other says maths. Are we supposed to have another, as the pink booklet says there should be 1 Chinese clear folder?

Also, is the red Art clear folder carrying bag necessary for the p1s? I read in the pink booklet students will be given lockers to keep art materials and books? Is this true? At P1, can they manage lockers?

Hi HC_Parent, the book list stated 1 red clear holder for Music, 1 red file for Maths, and 1 plastic ring file for Chinese.

Is there a red Art clear folder? Is this the optional item that is selling at the bookshop u are talking about? Cos the art folder stated on the book list is actually a huge white file-like thing that says \"My Art Folio\" with a plastic file inside.

I only saw 1 student from TNS that made it to Top list in PSLE. Wondering why so few top students considering TNS is one of the top hot school?

Hmm.. there are more pupils scoring A* in chinese than in science. Does it mean it is more difficult to get a A* in science than in chinese? or is it because tao nan is very strong in chinese and hence more A*.

[tankee]

the national figures suggest that Science is tougher than Chinese.

Depends on how frequent is your laundry.

Buy more PE attire, as school allowed students to come in PE attire during the hot seasons.
