I really don't know what is this tea session all about... I received an email from Mr. Koh, the admin manager on Monday. In the email, it was mentioned that the contract for the school uniform vendor will expire this Jun, and this is one of the topics that will be brought up during the tea session...


And yes, the email states that each level only 24 parents are allowed...

I received the email but I thought the feedback was only for the uniform vendor contract so I ignored it.... not aware the tea session is for any other matters too?...
Anyway kinda last minute, not a good timing for working parents..

Hi Callie

No, we didnt receive any emails on the tea session. If you are going, hope you can echor our sentiments. I believe many of us feel that there should be more communication between teachers to parents and school to parents. We parents really have no clue what is going on and our kids are also not able to give us complete info. Many times, what we gather are snipplets of info. Eg. the recent tests conducted in class for p3, when we ask the teacher, they say there is no such tests. :scratchhead:

Hi mommies,

My son will be going Pei Chun next year. However we are stressed that the school bus (sch bus vendor list found on sch website) does not seem to come to our house at Eunos. Do any mommies with kids in Pei Chun now know abt their school bus system? I heard some schools have pte school bus service. Does Pei Chun have? Any kids who stay in the east like us? TIA!

Well the thing is after i sent in my reply yesterday morning, I have yet to receive any updates from the school as to whether I get to attend or not... cos the email stated that only 24 parents from each level are allowed. :scratchhead:

I asked my girl about the so-called 'diagnose test' you were talking about... she said it is not a test but rather, an exercise that the kids did in pairs...

Hi, anybody staying in Hougang/SengKeng children going to PC in 2015? I'm looking for car pool of 2-3 children. Objective is to save cost & time as by taking school bus is a waste of time for our children after their long day in school.


Secondly, will PC be single session in 2014? if no, we need to look out for after school care center too? :roll:

Please email [email protected] for discussion/planning... :rahrah:

My location: Hougang Ave 10

I remember reading some notification that PCPS will be single session in 2015....

Thank you for your info. Do you know what's single session timing?

I feel that Pei Chun has been making efforts to improve on communication with parents. Level briefing, PN and newsletter on exam matters shares vital info in advance. Many other schools my friends’ kids go to don’t give such detail info regarding exams until a later date.


Regarding communication between class teachers and parents, as long as teachers inform us of important matters (eg. serious behavioural issues) there is no need to update parents on the day-to-day happenings in class. Where do they find time to prepare lessons if they were to tell parents that they did a quiz or a practice in pairs? I would like the teachers to focus on teaching rather than managing demanding parents.

As far as I know the list is accurate. you can try to call the vendor if any bus vendor do willing to extend to Eunos.
Frankly, transportation is a big prob. I'm at Balestier/Whampoa area, so near to peichun..yet there are only 3 kids in school bus this yr. I'm so worry for my gal who's only going P1 2 yrs later.
