Can mummies / daddies from TGPS enlighten me on previous years' orientation programme?

Kids go with the class and parents stay in hall? FOrms to fill?
Anyone knows about bridging classes for those who have not attended kindy?

Last yr form filling was done during PSLE marking days where existing pupils not in school and parents given a letter indicating a day and time slot to report to school to fill in forms and get the P1 temporary name tag for week 1 and 2 in new yr.
Actual orientation day, parents who were not free and yet to fill in forms can fill while in the school hall, P and teachers briefing. Pupils go classroom n existing P1 teachers just orientate them with classroom n school tour. Extra time, they were watching video while waiting for hall briefing to end.
Day 1 in P1 no bridging yet. As they move into lessons in week 3 or so, weaker pupils in math n english will be identified from each class. They will be taken out by another teacher to another room to coach with more support - LSP n LSM my DS says.
MTL still stays as a class till mid Apr where once a week, the better or weaker will move to another class for an hr. The rest of the week stays as a class.

Normally is a day off for all existing pupils so no other pupils in school except parent volunteers and prefects. Maybe exam marking day or something and current P1 teachers will take the 2014 pupils for orientation and school tour.
A few canteen stalls will be open so can try buying food and drinks after getting uniforms and textbooks.

Apart from the bookshop, where else can we get the uniform from?

Do we order name tags on that day as well.
Figured we would buy books another day to avoid the rush.

If no changes, uniform supplier has a factory at toa payoh factory next to SPH. Personal experience is not good as went to exchange a defective sewn piece bought in school and was given old stock as cutting n cloth different. Info on opening dates and operating hours of bookshop and uniform sales will be given so can go back on other days. PE attire, shoe and socks sold at same location.

Book comes in a standard box so whatever you cancel from the booklist will be taken out of the box.

Nametags were ready for collection at a separate desk on orientation day so keep a lookout. Pay and collect on the spot.
