My girls just got SOM for overdue library books… according to the teacher, there’s no avenue to redress or appeal the decision.

Anyone has similar encounters?

Good class may not be the best class. It still depends on the child and teacher.

just want to check with the P1 parents here.

My girl has forgotten to copy down the notes to her handbook (and missed a homework) again. It’s not the first time and the teacher has threatened to bring up her case to the discipline department. That will mean that a school offense module maybe issued.

I know that my girl attention may wan and is sometimes forgetful. Still, does this warrant such a punishment?

any advice anyone?

Indeed.

All parents of P1 2012, please take note that there is an annoucement in Chongfu site about recess schedule

http://www.chongfu.moe.edu.sg/?p=1482[quote]Due to the ongoing construction work and for safety considerations, we regret to inform you that parents will not be able to enter the canteen to witness the Buddy Recess Programme as space is very limited. As per past years’ practice, arrangements have been made to allocate a P2 pupil to partner up with a P1 pupil during recess. We would like to assure you that your child is in safe hands and our capable teachers will take every precaution necessary to ease your child into formal school. We appeal for your support and thank you for your kind understanding.[/quote]

I am curious! Did you specifically ask to split up your twins or was it assigned by the school automatically? Just curious to know how did you derive the conclusion that it is better to split the twins, if this is by choice. Appreciate your advice as I also have a pair of twins enrolling into CFS in 2013

Before the letters are send, the CF person in charge called us asking whether we want to put them in the same class.

To tell the truth, we are also not sure, so we leave the decision with the kids themselves. All we have done is reason with them the pros and cons of having them in a separate class.

Silly question here. Does it matter if I move/change house after we have gotten the confirmation for the primary school registration?

There will be a briefing specially conducted for parents who are keen to register their children in Chongfu School for Primary One 2012.

The Briefing will be held on 6th May 2011 at Chongfu School, Seminar Room.

I have a question about balloting. For twins, are they given 1 chance or 2 at the ballot?
