      Anyone DD interested in joint the CCAs? I wanted my girl to join the dance club as I feel she has talent in that but she not interested. She wants to join art club.


      If she joined CCA, does it means that I have to bring her to school myself or the school bus will come and pick her up early.

      I thought gym is compulsory for all students. So is not right?

      If your DD join any CCA, you will have to send her yourself. The sch bus will not fetch.

      Gym is compulsory for all P1 as their PE3 where they learn basic gym moves but the sch also has gym as a specialised CCA. Now, these gals can do somersaults in the air :rahrah: Training for gym as a specialised CCA is more intensive, twice a week. πŸ˜“

      Oh. I saw \"PEHE\" session in her timetable. So that's the time where they will have their basic gym?

      Wah..do somesaults in the air! My DD sure scared of that. She is scared of heights. πŸ™‚

        Wah..that's really expensive. Did you ask your DD which club she interested in? or you decide for her.

        Hee...mummy decide cos if u ask my DD, she will wan dance club, gymnastics, art club, tennis, etc.... Basically all on the menu. :lol:

        How abt u? did u leave it to DD to decide?

        Icic. I did ask her which one she wants and she says Art Club. But I think I am going to put her 1st choice for Dance Club, then 2nd choice Art Club. hehehe..I think she is going to get angry at me!. I will not put her for the gym as she is scared of heights...so she will probably get scare off.

            That's what I thot. Is this held as a general briefing session for all P1 parents? or is this like an individual classroom setting whr the teachers will brief us for each class?

            The beginning part of the parents' briefing is a general one for all P1 and P2 parents. This time all P1 parents will get to meet the Principal. I understand you all didn't get to see her during Orientation Day. After the Principal's address, all parents will then head back to their DD's respective classes to meet the form teachers, who will brief you on matters pertaining to the class. :lol:

              Hi Tinkerbelle,

              what do they use the white board for? I thot that was for art so din even bother to pack. As for the locker, can my DD put her stuff inside herself? Or do they need the teacher's permission to put thgs inside?
              The white board is for the gals to do Chinese 'xi zi' writing, maths questions, practise spelling etc.....save paper. Once the gals have done their work, the teacher will ask them all to raise the white board up for her to check. Don't forget to pack white board markers and duster for your DDs. πŸ˜‰

              Your DD can put things into her locker by herself; no need to ask for permission. Just remind your DDs to make sure she puts it into the right locker. All lockers have a number labelled next to it, according to the child's register no. My DD2 put her exercise books in the wrong locker on the 1st day last year and couldn't find it later.. :slapshead:

                Tinkerbelle,


                saw fr the term schedule that specialised CCA starts on the week of 10 jan, so roughly when will we know if our gals have been selected?

                sorry for the many questions. :oops:
                Only the upper Pri gals start their CCA from 10 Jan. The lower pri gals will only commence CCA on the 3rd week of sch (starting from 17 Jan). You should hear from the sch latest by next week if your DD has been selected for CCA. πŸ˜„

                  Hi Cantbearit2,

                  Yes...you are right...I think we need to do that... :lol:
                  I am so used to my son's school where the teachers give out the term schedules to the boys and tell them to bring home for their parents.... πŸ˜„
                  Btw, which class is your gal in?
                  Mine is in P1 Responsibility
                  My DD is in P1 Perseverance. First day of sch, saw a girl in P1 Responsibility also v petite like my DD. πŸ˜‰ Is it your DD?

                    Hi all!


                    Yes... after 2 days, I'm getting very sotong already, what to bring and what not. DD is in 1 Compassion, any fellow mummies here to share & compare notes for 1 Compassion class?

                    She got her helpmate, but used it as a diary instead. She told me need to bring English worksheet tdy..\"I love my family\", but when I whipped out that booklet, she told me whole stack. Thought it's quite heavy to bring everything there in one go, so we argued over this.
                    The Helpmate is like a diary for your DD to record down all homework and for parents to write notes to the teacher and vice versa when necessary.

                    As for the Eng worksheets, the teachers will collect the whole stack as she'll keep them in her cupboard in the classroom. This is to minimise the incidence of loss further down the year. Do remember to label your DD's worksheets before submitting to the teacher. :lol:

Half the class will have gym lessons while the other half will have normal PE lessons. The the next PE lesson, they'll swap around.

                        I don't know what's PEHE. Don't see that on my DD\"s timetable but saw PE/Health Ed instead. Wonder if HE is the same as Health Ed?? DD1 did mention that this year Health Ed and PE are 'sharing' periods....dunno what that means though.
