Hi mummy & daddy


Are you able to share the topics the sec 3 will be learning for term 3 & 4 for subjects Chem and Maths 1 and 2 in 2014? Thanks

my dd enjoys and survives her 1st day at DHS. Made some friends, thanks to the ice-breakers and cheers led by cheeky and tricky student leaders. I am glad she sings praises for her teachers, commented that they are quite friendly, readily giving them a welcome smile when they introduce themselves to the class. Some even told them not to worry if they forget or miss out certain announcements. I thought that is kind, especially to a new bundle of newbies, loaded with info.


Interestingly, my dd finds P very approachable! May be he hasn’t spelt out his rules to them, haha

Hope my dd sleeps well tonite(sleepless last nite!) and welcome the next new day with a bright new smile…

DHS rocks :rahrah: :rahrah: 13 more hours to go...

looking earnestly forward to join the DHS family…

Merry Christmas and a Happy 2012 to everyone.

My dd got in DHS. The queue was so long. Instead of queuing, we went to register and explore the route to Mountbatten mrt station. When we returned, there was no queue, buying uniform and textbook was a breeze.


The talk by Principal was interesting and informative, peppered with interesting facts. Principal come across as a very driven person. That's good. How long has this Principal been around?

Yup, the queue was intimidating.
I did like what you did, went to 112 Katong for a leisurely lunch and by 12+ pm, there was hardly anyone around.
They did not have book 1 of the math textbook, so I had to go to Popular bookstore to get it.

I think the principal is weird but an interesting guy.
I did not quite like the way he switched between english and chinese.
I know that he is trying to show that he emphasizes bilingualism.
However, I don't encourage my kids to speak like that.
If speaking english, then it is english all the way.
Chinese, then chinese only.

I hope the vineyard will direct this piece of information about the switch attempted by P. I strongly discourage a conversation/talk peppered with English and Chinese. I advocate bilingualism but not his practice. Perhaps, I suggest he speaks purely in Chinese and get the head of English Dept to deliver in English. Or, Break the talk(same contents) into 2 groups in 2 venues, one presented in English and the other in Chinese. Hope he sees our feedback. just my 2cent worth of afterthought.

Any recommendation for Science enrichment for upper primary?

People always comment that it is challenging and tough to teach your own children. It is not easy to be a loving parent and at the same, an effective tutor. I make it again this year. Both my children score A* in their PSLE Science.

I am a NUS graduate, experienced n specialised in teaching Upper Primary Sci. full time. I have been teaching for more than 15 years. In Dec 2011, I will be organising a headstart program which is 2hrs each session for a period of 6 days in the East. Motivated pupils or those from top schools are strongly encouraged to join. contact me if u need more info. :idea:

new class starting on 19 Dec . feel free to contact me for info. thanks[/quote]Program has started. Thank you for all your support. :thankyou:

I am thinking of registering my child for GP group tuition at LL or SOT. Which centre is known for producing grade A pupils? Anyone has any experience or encounter to share? :thankyou:
