Like to get feedback on the enrichment class \"Speak with Oomph!\".


Did anyone send his/her child to one of these before? Is it any good?

Why don't you try it out and share your feedback here?

We signed up for robotics, as requested by DD. Hopes she likes it. :xedfingers:

Was hoping DD won't have to be guinea pig mah.
No feedback....guess that class not popular huh?

[quote=\"8228\"]The AMEC (Advanced Maths Enrichment Club) will be conducted by Maths Aha! The fee is $180 for 12 2 hours lessons. I thought it should be free since it is considered CCA. :evil: Is it good?

Er.. I didnt see the AMEC thingy leh... I checked thru all his stuff daily.. Confirm never see it.. What is tat! Is it selected by teachers?

there was a selection test last week. only 20 p6 were selected.[/quote]So only for P6 lah..

Hi Parents, my son will be registering for P1 next year, and the only school nearby is Nanyang and I know it is very tough to get in and we are only in the Phase 2C. My question is what else can I do to get my son into Phase 2B, when I am rejected as a Parent Volunteer from the school and being a Grassroot leader will require 2 years of service? Thank you

But the class is considered enrichment, not CCA. I am not sure about P5 though. There are also classes by Maths Hub and Maths Oasis according to the Enrichment Programmed list, if you are interested.

Was dropping off DD at gate C this morning.


When the first car stopped in front of gate C, I (3rd car) also let my DD off but no action , no sound from 2nd car.

After the first car drove off, the second car slowly rolled forward 3m(!) to let his kid off! :slapshead:

What a stupid, selfish @ss!! :mad: :stupid:

Yah... These people r so selfish... Always causing a jam.. I kanna from one car in front of me too last week.. The car in front had 2 kids getting off and must go to the back of the car to grab their violin and dunno what else.. Why cannot put next to the child in the front so that they can just grab the stuff and get off the car quickly? Seen mums who must sit at the back with the child and get off first then let kid out and kiss good bye then go to the front seat! :stompfeet:


I always remind Ds to stand by once we turn in from the main rd.. Once we tell him to go, he will have everything he needs and get off fast.. That shd not be difficult right for anyone ? :?

totally agree. same thing happens at gate A too. in fact, i think up to 6 or 7 cars (along the school side at King's Road) could let the children get off safely at the same time. why can't the children walk a few more steps?? then the traffic will be super smooth. maybe the school should get a few students/parent volunteers etc. to open the doors for those parents during the peak 20 - 30 minutes. anyone knows the person in charge that we could talk to? for my children, they prefer getting off at Queen's Rd.

I hate those who park their cars at King's Rd and go into school to fetech their children after school or at 4 pm. one or two selfish drivers like them (usually are the same few drivers) could jam up the whole road. :mad: maybe we should start taking photo and post them here? :evil:

very common, seen at the secondary schools too!

Probably why Mrs Lee is sometimes on the driveway opening car doors. To force the kids out.
Could this be why there are so many obese kids around?

I think it can be seened from many of the replies that , quite a few us are concious and aware of our actions. I just wish that there are more.


Sad, but this is how our society has become.

I wonder if those road blocks are even aware of their actions. If they are, they surely do not give a hoot about others.

Any one noticed a dark colour beemer, during school dismissal hour, back gate, many times, parked along double yellow lines, at spots that blocks the traffic, sometimes for 15-20 mins… S----99B
