Hi this seems to be the woodlands site just want to check if there are any views on GreenWood.

This thread here is specifically for Woodlands Primary School, not for Woodlands area primary schools.

For Greenwood, you need to go to this thread:

WDP is now having morning sessions for P2,P4,P6 and afternoon sessions for P1,P3,P5. Anyone here is aware if there will be any changes to their sessions next year ?

Can anyone confirm this?

When will Woodlands be single session?

Not so soon.
Only thing that is confirmed is in year 2011 & 2012:
P1,2,3 AM session
P4,5,6 PM session
The rest is still pending MOE approval.
Plan to be partial single session by 2013,
then single session by 2016.

LKT, there was a pink notice on this a few weeks ago.. pls check.

really? they don mark papers?


actually i prefer a school where its not so acadameically aclined during primary one sessions..

I am not sure. Hopefully it is just one teacher or on one particular case.

It's the same everywhere, white sheep and black sheep exists.
No problem with my DD's teachers. marking is pretty strict and detail.
Small missing stroke also can be detected by the teachers' sharp eye..
I am very impressed!

So, NO WORRIES lah! AIO.

Hi,


Any new additions to the Woodlands Primary kiasu family?
Can someone update pls?

You may already know that WDP has reduced its intake this year
again to 270. Wonder if it will shrink again in 2011… then expect to see parents scrambling to be 40 hour PV…

Worry father, you may need to start worrying now…hahah… AIO.

:hi5: Hi Hi!


Just to share.. the school's Brisk Walk 3@HortPark today.
It was a pleasant experience... vast space and many theme gardens
for the kids to explore!
The highlight was the BUTTERFLIES Garden!
We entered it at the best time of the day and the butterflies were very
active. I even have a chance to see one feeding on the nectar :peekaboo: at close range!

A.I.O.
