My dd first day's Nanyang's life, seems confusion.


This morning she didn't know where to assemble coz supposed to go basketball court but there no ppl ... got ppl wearing red walking around she went to them and asked, but they actually show her wrong classroom, she just went in and looked around, when she sit down she saw the ppl staring at her......

After school, she took wrong school bus, when she realized morning bus and afternoon bus is difference, it was too late.

still now, she hasn't come back. :gloomy:

Oh dear. I hope the schoolbus driver will send her home.
My kids used to take schoolbus 2 years ago. IMO, the school bus drivers vary greatly in their attitude and helpfulness.
One year the driver was fantastic. When my boy forgot to tell him that he was staying back in school, the driver went all over the school to look for him.
The following year, a different driver was terrible. He didn't care if the kids were on the bus and would just drive off without waiting or counting the nos. Also, there was a lot of bullying and bad influence on the bus, which is why I stopped using schoolbus. Grandma or I fetch them, or they take bus home.
Your DD needs to rely on herself-- as I always tell my kids: \"No one will look out for you; sometimes even the teachers wouldn't. you have to take care of yourselves.\"

......

I have called school bus driver, they told me the status, another driver would send her back.

Finally she came back at 3:40pm.

I am considering let her take public bus herself after half year.

Yes, \"No one will look out for you; sometimes even the teachers wouldn't. you have to take care of yourselves.\" It is useful! thank you.

OMG hey my daughter also took a different bus for returning home during her first year. But the bus uncle will give her a bus number tag.

There are no parent volunteers ? Each class has 2 assigned I think. When I did the PV for first 3 days , I was in charged of bring those taking bus to the hall and the bus aunties will be taking down their names too.

Has it changed ?

[Busymom]

Taken a look at DD's timetable. Looks like she has to wear PE attire for 4 days a week again. 3 days with PE periods, and a fourth day has EC (G&D) which stands for dance and gym. :roll:


Does anyone know what is meant by EC (C&O)?

Also, I don't see PAL(CA) anymore. Wondering which period is Chinese Caligraphy, as I want to avoid letting DD wear the new set of uniform on days when she has caligraphy.

PV is only for P1. lizhi's dd is in P4. New transferee for GEP. Probably the teachers were expecting P4 to be able to take care of themselves. :roll: They forget that it can be quite daunting to suddenly be plunged into a school that is new & bigger than what she may have been previously used to. FT should have assisted a bit more.

This year she is p4. luckily I let her bring her handphone today in case anything i can easy contact her. so she is fine. thank you.

The problem is, nobody inform her, the morning school bus is difference with the one afternoon. Actually i have reminded her dont take wrong bus, she was very confidence to reply me: \"It is the ONLY pink one\", but she dont know she should follow the bus number instead of color.

I still confused that they have been informed to assemble at basketball court but there no ppl... :roll:
Till after 7:00am, she has to find her classroom herself.
