Hi Parents,


wow, i think i am a little too anxious to enrolled my child in this school, which my child is only at K1 this year, am i too kiasu?

basically, i am considering to enrol in Greenwood or Innova. But after reading this threat, i think my priority now is Innova. Althought i have not do anything yet, just some research on school.

I like the fast reponse reply from the school. I got the enquiry reply within a day. Bravo!!!

I am signing up the PV next week, as the clossing date for PV for 2014 intake is on Jun 2012 (i gt the fright when i saw the deadline). Can curent PV share thier experience? like what they do and how it go about?

Thanks

Hi I did PV duties a few times last year. The PVs were a friendly bunch. They try to make u feel part of a family and the leaders (P or VP) usually drop by to show their appreciation of your efforts, even for a short while. I enjoyed those sessions.

Did teacher threaten to kill pupils?


A teacher has allegedly threatened to kill two primary school pupils.
Their father has made a police report accusing the teacher of making the threat at Causeway Point shopping centre last month, while the children were out shopping with their mother.
The teacher had apparently thought the children had been laughing at her.
The police are investigating the matter and the school and the Ministry of Education are assisting with investigations.

Parents what is your opinion on this?pls share your views...thanks!
If the teacher is convicted for this crime what will happen to her?

Hi,
I guess we should take note of the tone in which the words were uttered. Was the teacher joking? And how familiar was the teacher with the pupils? I know some pupil teacher relationships are quite close nowadays and have heard pupils speak to their teachers in the same tone they use on their friends. Maybe it was a personal joke? Have not read this article personally myself.
Hoping the best for the teacher.

Dear Parents,

The pupils call her Mrs Lee. I think she is practical and firm. Good English teacher. :rahrah:

Hi!

Anyone can provide feedback on Elias Kindergarten? I am specifically interested to find out more about the Woodlands Branch. I think they have a few branches but I can’t seem to find the website.

elantranine:

oh btw i tried calling the sch to find out top score, admin only said our top scorer kids scored 265 above and they cant disclose the exact score.

Ya. I heard that's the latest by MOE. Schools cannot disclose their top score. But I'm sure the principal & teachers know.

I think it’s better if your child gets an unmarried teacher because then the teacher has less family commitments and can focus more on our children. Teachers with children tend to be away more. Like us, they need to attend to their own children too, especially when their children are sick. Unfortunately, our children will be teacherless for the day if there is no relief.

Any of your child is in the student care within the school? How do you find it?

u can ask for the student care manager from the school's general office or search for 'Powerlife\" online I think

Miss Juliana Teo of 3 Faith is supposed to be one of the best P3 teachers.Have not heard much about the others so no comments there.

Will the present batch of P3 teachers still be teaching our P3 kids in 2012? I'd assumed there will be some kind of job/level rotation amongst the teachers.

Looks like the P4 teachers in 2012 are the same as the P3 teachers in 2011 except for 4Charity & 4Faith as their teachers have left the school. Mdm Chin of 4Charity has the most experience followed by Mrs Chua of 4Hope. My friend told me that the school tries to have the same teachers teach the class for 2 years. That's why, if your class foloows up in the same class, he'll usually get the same teacher in P1&P2, P3&P4 and P5&P6. :xedfingers:

Hello,

My girls will be in P3 & P1 next year at Innova. I like the open environment of the school. The teachers are approachble and so far, the principal seems friendly and pro-active. No complaints from my P3 girl. She enjoys going to school. I enrolled her in swimming. Thus far, there have been a few occasions in which I had to email some of the teachers of the school and I am happy to receive their prompt replies to my queries. My girl gets her worksheets on time and I like that we are informed in advance of the goings-on in the school.
