also, i find it difficult to remember which \"combination\" of the PE-attire/ formal sch uniform, kids need to wear. According to student handbook, half PE-attire after PE lesson. Why cant students simply wear PE-attire throughout the day? so cumbersome for them to change...


separately, i was surprise to find tat P1 level EL is relatively \"relaxing\". my dd was doing penmanship....smth which i thot kids are expected to noe/do b4 entering P1....& that spelling is only for 5 words!

can anyone share how hectic CCA is for students ? my boy has CCA on Mon & Wed....was just informed that he needs to attend tournament as well.... so his afternoon schedule for the next 2 weeks would be packed fr Mon to Thurs! in my opinion, this is bery hectic. :imdrowning: is this the norm?

hi shandee,

Is your DS in P1? I thought P1 CCA is on Wed only :?

As for the PE attire, if i remember correctly, P1 students can wear PE attire throughout the day if they have PE lessons. It's more complicated for higher levels though

Hi lilytan and minine2004


Nice to see both of you here. My DD will be moving to P2 next year.

lilytan...since your DS1 had just finished his P5, how would you rate the school in terms of academic demands (ie. do you think that the school had high expectations of the students)

Hi lilytan,
Would u please share on the school's expectation of the students. Its now week 3 of the school term & honestly i have not seen much as to wat my P1 & P3 kids have been doing in sch in terms of homework. Is this norm?

Hihi, just went to the Stella breifing last friday.


Guess nothing much, they said they will put up the slides on the school website…so those who din attend, can go in and read up the slides.

Just a few notes that the HOD mentioned…
Stella prog is story book based. She encourages us not to get the story books for our kids, so that the kids will be able to "participate" when the teachers teach in class.

Just tell us just provides kids w reading materials at home, bring them to library, get them to read, write, instead of drilling them with assessment books…haha.
