I think if the kids are motivated, they will be demonstrating good results in their exams. And that is just, that.


I think, more importantly, how thay are going to develop their EQ and communications skills which would be more useful to them in the long run.

The school is a great learning environment to cope with a diversity of students from various background.

Salutations to the teachers who are working hard to motivate the students to learn in a positive environment. :imcool: :rahrah:

Dear Tan,


Practise, practise and more practise is the way to go to avoid careless mistakes. I used to borrow previous year test/exam papers from some selfless parent of senior Lianhua pupil, practise before teacher handout previous year test/exam papers for class practise. This way, my child gained confidence.

Does Lianhua still maintain diamond and amethyst class to keep up healthy academic competition ? I hope so. I cannot thank Lianhua enough for the 6 nurturing years for my child. This coming Teacher's Day, a number of happy secondary one ex Lianhuarians will be visiting

Good advice!

Now it comes to the year end. We just received her record book. Now they will be changing the class names after the merging of the school. I am not sure what that means.

We extend our warm welcomes to the neighbouring school to merge with Lian Hua! :rahrah: :rahrah: :rahrah:

I have to thank the school for offering the students great learning exprience. My daughter has been enjoying the school. She seems to be very settled at school. She does meet some 'friends' who are 'not so nice' with their choice of words and behaviours. But overall, this does expose her with the necessary coping skills of how to 'live' with such students. Thankfully, the school does set certail degree of discipline to control unsociable behaviours.


I think as parents, we are very afraid of the children not making the academic achievements and placing too much emphasis on the subjects. Unnessary stress and pressure were imposed upon the kids and ourselves.

Meanwhile with the recent results coming out from her recent tests, I just hope that there can be some more effective ways that any unnecessary careless mistakes can be minimised.

Hiya,

Yes, I am sorry that we are not Singaporeans. Singapore is however kind enough to open its door for me to come and work. But I have kids. I had no idea how hard it is even for the local Singaporean to apply for their ‘local’ schools, let alone a foreigner like me.
Is there any expat kiasu parents out there who had this experience of transferring their children 's school from overseas to local schools? How many schools do you choose to put your children on the waiting list? We are coming soon this year and we are stil in limbo as to how to choose the location for our accommodation.
