Hi all,


My son has been admitted into MBS for next year P1.

As per what the experienced parents here have advised, P1 will be PM session next year.

What I would like to ask now, is the school timings for PM session. When I asked the teacher during registration process, he told me that PM session ends at 6.20pm, but I forgot to ask about starting time.

Also, I recall from when I was in MBS, there was flag lowering ceremony for PM session and flag raising ceremony for AM session. Is it still the same now? Does the flag lowering ceremony ends at 6.20pm or later?

Sorry for the detailed questions, but I need the details in order to discuss with the grandparents regarding next year's arrangements for my son and daughter (who will be in K2 next year).

Thanks so much!!

My son is in Pri 1 this year. Reporting time is 12:20pm. They usually sing the National Anthem during reporting time. There is no longer flag lowering during dismissal. They are dismissed after the bell rings at 6:20pm and usually dismissed quite on time. Recess time for P1 is 2:50 to 3:20pm.

May I check if what is 菩提之星?

Thank you FantasyLandDreams for your sharing. Really appreciate it.


The teacher did not tell my child about the duties of a class monitor when he was appointed. So just want to let briefly let him know.

Hi anybody's child in P1I?

My son is in P1I.

You may want to try The Learning Lab. The teachers teach a few weeks in advance of the MOE syllabus and also provided tips for assessment. Their teachers are usually ex-MOE teachers. 1 dowside is the fees is quite expensive. Be prepared to pay about 3 times more than BC.

Thanks FantasyLandDreams and leyingamanda. The info is useful. At least to get me mentally prepared.

May I check also? Does the school provide 小母指 fortnightly magazine for the students? I was thinking of subscrbing but don’t want to waste the monies if the school does provide. Thanks in advance.

Are there exams for Maha Bidhi P1 pupils? Although MOE mentioned no exams for P1, some schools still have exams for P1 students.
