For the mother tongue enrichment class for P1, does it spell \"end-of-the road\" for any students not making it?

I don't think so. For my daughter (P2 this year), there are those who were not in the enrichment class last year, being recommended to the MT enrichment class this year. And also those who were in the enrichment class but were not recommended for enrichment class this year. So, the pupils don't really \"lose out\" even if they are not in the enrichment class.

But, something to note which is different from last year. This year, for P2 Chinese in enrichment class (I'm not sure about P1 this year). they use Higher Chinese text book, different text books from those used by core module class. I noted there are more passages in the Higher Chinese text books. However, all students are only tested based on the core modules syllabus.

Thanks for the info.
Came back today from meet parents session for P1. The MT teacher also assured me that considerations will also be given after next 2 terms (review every 6 months). The teacher also told me that actually in KCPPS, quite a handful of MT teachers are actually contract teachers and some didn't even gone through NIE training, a bit funny. So I actually concluded that MOE is not emphasizing on MT, but unwilling to giveup MT, schools are allowed to give enrichment for MT but syllabus for enrichment not tested at all.

For the mother tongue enrichment class for P1, does it spell "end-of-the road" for any students not making it?

Just received the invitation for the School Family Education (SFE) for P1 Parents Coffee Chat with Principal on the 24th Feb, attending it got any benefits? And also the venue, where is SFE Family Life Centre? In the school?

I’ve heard from the bus operator that most of the P1 students didn’t sign up for the speech & drama course on wednesday, is that true? Is it that this course is not popular?

Wow, what an exciting day, P1 and 1st day of school! Got the timetable and realised that Friday’s schedule is pretty heavy cos it starts at 11am till 630pm. Is it usually like that?

Alumni is network/social gathering for the old students of the school, no benefit to the current student studying there.

I was thinking that I can also rub shoulder with the committee board so that my kid will be \"taken care\" of... using some influence

Does anyne knowa the benefits of joining the KCP’s Alumni? Wondering whether it helps my kid in his stay in KCPPS?

Hi:


We are church member. We like the school culture very much.

I went to see the school and love the hall outside the office very much. So beautiful!

Hi Yusim

I must say that the school is very nice and hope my son will be happy there too. Though I'm not Christian but the number of years there I got to understand more of the religion.

Hi Yusim

Seems a bit far from KCPPS from where you stay, are you 1 of the ex-student from KCPS?
