I noted that I can apply to join Parent Support Group (PSG) on orientation day. What are the things PSG can do? Must the parent be full time SAHM to be able to contribute? Anything that Working Mum can assist?

Hi,The PSG welcomes working parents to assist in Gate duty and Traffic control duties before school starts.There are Booth from various PSG duties groups to orientate you on the roles of PSG.You can check them out during orientation.SAHM can opt for Recess duties,Reading programme and you can even join mothers in prayers' group.Fill up the field of interest and the Parent-In-charge will contact you.

My girl is going to OLN in 2014. Any idea how is the school hours like? Morning what time reach school n what time finish?


I'm thinking to send her to school before I go work, after school by school bus.

How does the school help the kids blend into pr school life?

Hi,
CHIJOLN school time is 7.45am-2pm(Mon-Wed)
7.45am-1.30pm(Thur,Fri)
School bus provide to and back trip .However,if you want just a 1 way trip,they will only deduct $5 from the bus fees.School bus services will take your girl back home straight after school,as for timing,it depends on your house location.The bus transport company will let you know end of Dec.


Your girl will naturally be involved in school activities ,dont worry.
99.9% of P1 OLN girls are very happy and well entertained in schools.
You will get to understand more about OLN during Orientation on 18/11/2013

2 places taken up. CHIJ OLN left 4 confirmed places for 1km to 2km. If no more walk in, then these 4 places will be balloted among 13 SC >2km. If 4 SCs 1km to 2km walk in now, the situation for the 13 SC more than 2km is risky as more than 2km may ended up not getting a chance to ballot! Parents if you are more than 2km from CHIJ OLN, please seriously consider withdrawing and go another school try. I just left CHIJ OLN. Going to another school to register now. No chance for me as I'm SC >2km.

Hi Sembgal

so which school did you register in the end?

sembgal:

I heard that CHIJ OLN school is sitting on a plot of land that used to be cemetery. Is it true or not???

Its not haunted.Ghosts will be driven away by beautiful laughters from teachers and students..so no worries :siam:

sembgal:

As of 11.40am, the admin lady said total SC who registered is about 70.

Still got chance for those SC >2km

Available vacancies for Phase 2C is 88.

CHIJ OLN has better customer service than CHIJ OLGC. The way the CHIJ OLN admin lady talk to me is so much more professionally and polite than CHIJ OLGC. Seriously, if there's a chance, CHIJ OLGC admin staff should go over to CHIJ OLN to learn about manners when talking to parents.

Hi Sembgal

Indeed,they are very polite and professional.They can deal with any girls' problems with no sweat too.In all,OLN is a very well mannered school with warm staffs and teachers.Congrats to all new OLN mothers!

Hi auntie lynn, I realize that u sleep very late.:) Do enjoy ur beauty sleep earlier. :snooze:

I m surprised that the Sch changes the design of the PE Attire every yr. Hee...concerned about image...it's no doubt a GIRLS' Sch. Hee...
Next yr the Sch is having a new P, I guess the new P will be too busy changing this n that n will ve no time to change the design of the PE attire.
Wow! We OLN as her own Art bag? It's Good! I don't mind having an ergonomic OLN Sch bag for my gal but must ve name on the bag. If not, high chance of taking the wrong bag. Ha...

Has your girl been under Mdm Fiona Foo before? Next yr she is my girl's FT.
