Yes this year orientation is during school day. I wonder why. Previously it was after school holiday starts and the kids get to meet their future teachers and classmates in the classroom :-).


Let’ see if our kids ended up same class. Haha.

TGPS conducting balloting for PR staying outside of 2km for 2C! Wow, looks like the school can not just take in the 2 extra applicants. Hope those don’t get in after the balloting has a plan B already.

Hi Dahlia,


Thanks for sharing and sorry for late reply as was busy with a day trip to KL and local meetings, now back in action.

Hi Rejoice,


oh mind, it's going to be quite stressful. Yeah, MOE only allow 240 places and thus the school has to abide by the requirement. All schools practise the same.

PS: any of the forum mommies/daddies need to go through balloting>? Hope not.... :xedfingers:

Wishing all a good weekend.

Hi Rejoice,


Yes, CA2 is in pipeline and with the 3 days of school being off for NDP, it'll be a good chance for enjoyment cum revision. :evil:

All the best to all kiddos too!

Regards,
Astee

Hi all, my child is enrolled for TGPS next year. I received a call from my friend and she advised me to not send my child to TGPS because there are lots of ‘gangsters’ there. Her brother’s son is in P1 this year. Within 3 months they have noticed a change in his behaviour. He has also mastered reciting Chinese poems in vulgar words. They are now trying to transfer him to another school. Does anyone have any insight or similar experience? how does the school discipline the kids? i dont mean to cause any alarm to you parents but am curious if this is a one off incident.thanks.

Let me share a scenario - in a normal technical stream class in secondary school, we see some ‘angels’ around too - nice kids who are of good character and not scheming. They may not fit in well with their class but hard for them to change for the worst. They are a joy to teach. On the other hand, we get some ‘terrible’ kids from good primary schools in the Express stream with parents who help their children get away from punishments when there are wrong-doings so as to have a ‘clean’ record.

My point is you cannot cut off bad influence in your child’s life but you must be involved in guiding your child in his/her education/growing up journey. Problem now is parents expectation of the school n teachers.
