I have a question here (may have discussed previously but the thread is too long to go thru)… Pls bear with me…


For DSA through sport, let say if the child is in the school team (and the team met the criteria for DSA application) but as a reserve player. Will the child be eligible to apply for DSA through sport??

TIA!

Heard that some GEP centres do give additional ‘enrichment’ lesson to selected students from the HA classes to prepare them for GEP. Is this true and is it considered hothousing as well??

Heard from my sis that her colleague’s nephew witnessed one of his P2 malay classmates got abducted into a van by a Chinese yesterday’s afternoon, on their way home from school in Tampines. Police report made but cant broadcast as not 24hrs yet. Till now the boy is not home yet.


Although I heard this from my own sis, I hope it is not true.

Any P1 kiddo next yr? My ds2 will be in P1 Adventurous…


Hope to link up…

Did you ever regret it when you had to register your dd for P1? (Assuming your have a dd)

Hmm... fortunately not really. If I have all girls, I probably would have chosen SCGS over her current school, but fact is, I have a DS too, don't want to go through another round of P1 registration headache when his turn comes. We are staying within 1km of SCGS, and if we had wanted it, we could actually get in during P2B for DD.

Maybe you can ask me again 6 years later...

Why 6 years later leh....?[/quote]She is preggy now!!!????

Both of my kids went BBK. Elder ds is already P2 this yr and younger ds is in K2 this year.


The teachers are very commited. The school prepares them well academically for P1 yet at the same time, they had a lot of fun in school.

Dun think there is a Tr Leow there, is it Tr Gio? She is the co-principal of the school.

Let me know if I can help.

Tried to bake a chocolate chip with almond nuts bread. The chocolate melted completely and thus looks like a chocolate bread.


Is there a special chocolate for baking bread?

I used the same choco chips as you. My Z machine did not melt all the choc chips, I can still see a bit of choco chips here and there. I throw in 'cold' choco chips(straight out from fridge into the breadmaker). My friend is using another brand of breadmaker, hers too, all choc chips melted.

Pardon the poor quality of my pic (This was one of my first breads using the Z machine, didnt rise properly but can see that the choc chips did not melt).

Hello!


I was reading the thread and realised that even at Phase 2A2, the queue could be long and someone mentioned that they waited 2hrs just to register. That got me panicking as I am working on a KS parent strategy, ie register in Phase 2A2, and intending to monitor and try for another school at Phase 2B (within 1km).

Will I make it in time to withdraw and apply within the afternoon registration period of 2hrs on Day 2 of Phase 2B given that there could be a long queue at Phase 2B? Any advise from someone who have tried this before?

Hasn't happened in the past but people could be getting more and more kiasu now. To play safe, better not wait til the last minute to withdraw and register. Do it in the early afternoon.

Just an ultra-ks suggestion: Each parent station at one sch, soon after withdrawal, the other parent quickly register at 2nd sch. Sounds workable?

For those who registered during Phase 1, did you submit the vaccination form thru the older sibling?


I dun think I did few months back.
