Dear Parents,
This is the last blog that I am putting up for 2 Flexibility.
It has been a good two years with the class, working with you as my fellow team mates to support and guide the children. Thank you for being such a good team mate!!!
Today, the children are receiving the following items:-
a) report book with results and class posted indicated. - I just peeked at the report books prepared by Mrs Ho. I think Mrs Ho just put the I 1 or C1 etc. She meant 3I 1 or 3C1. So please do take note. Although the number 3 is omitted, it is taken as known to all.
b) Exam scripts for English, Maths and MT, and Oral feedback form
c) Home Econs paper - recording what we did yesterday - to be placed in English file at the end of the file
d) Poster that I have made for the class - if it is not in a good condition when it gets home, I still have a few spare copies. I hope that the children can have a good souvenir for their two years together.
e) Rewards as promised based on 'earnings' for good behaviour, results etc etc etc. Reminders were given that this is a bonus and regardless of rewards, as pupils, they must work hard. I told them I want all the 2F children to work hard in P3. They will still see me for the Good Children Rewards - which is given for every class by me.
A BIG Thank you to our parents who helped to organise the party today! Thanks for organising this! All the children have enjoyed themselves. They have brought back the 'balloon' that they have made during the party.
I have spoken to the children and got a bit teary, (hopefully the children did not see), as I will miss your children. It was a great two years working together:) Mrs Nair and I also got to hug each child before we all, as a class, for the last time, walk to all the 3 dismissal points together and 'drop off' the children and wished them happy holidays.
With that, I would have completed my 'stint' as their English and Maths Teacher for two years!
I wish your child all the best in his or her P3 next year! I know they would be wonderful and I look forward to hearing wonderful things about them in future.
Please take care and have a wonderful day everyday!
I shall now sign off for the last time. Thank you!!!
P.S. Those who may have missed the report books etc, they should be in Mrs Ho (FT)'s pigeonhole. As for the rewards, I will deliver them to those who have to leave earlier in January 2013, as the rewards are too big to be squeezed in the pigeonhole and the office cannot be a place for storing such things.
See you around. Take care!
Happy Holidays!

Dear Parents,
Today we had Home Economics lesson ( postponed from last week) in class. The children tasted different combinations of the Bandung drink with various proportion of milk and rose syrup. They then decided which they liked best and stated the reasons why.
They also did a Maths Worksheets for the follow-up of the Maths Research by the level. They also had their last Mental Sums today. The Mental Sums book has been returned to them today.
Tomorrow for Party Day, they would not be having any lessons.
1pm to 2pm - In the hall for a 'reactment' of the prize giving day for the P1s and 2s prize winners, and also a tribute to Mr Ng from the pupils.
2pm (or thereabouts depending on when the hall activity ends) till 5pm will be the party day.
I will have to end the party at around 5pm tomorrow, as there are report books to be given out, plus returning of the exam papers, plus my rewards and the mystery gift to them, plus my final farewell to the children after two years.
Note: Mr Sy has already announced to them that tomorrow they can wear their home clothes, but need to wear school shoes. But No Sleeveless clothes.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!

Re: An explanation of the P3 classes in 2013
Dear Parents,
Please do note that there are two clusters - the Integrity Cluster ( selected based on overall results by comparing the whole cohort) and the Care Cluster. Please be informed that the Integrity classes I1 to 15 - are the same - in the sense that the children are selected based on overall results but are then spread out equally among the classes, thus I1 = I2 = 13 = 14 = I5 . There is NO top I class. Then the rest of the children are in the Care cluster and once again, the children are equally spread out once again. Thus C1 = C2 = C3 = C4 = C5 . There is No top C class.
Fyi please. Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!

P.S. The children will know their classes along with their report books on Thursday.
Note: 53% of our class children are in the Integrity cluster. 47% are in the Care cluster.

Dear Parents,
Today, the children wrote Thank you notes to their friends to express their gratitude for the times when they felt thankful or grateful to their friends for helping them. The children then delivered these notes personally to their friends.
Then we had Mental Sums ( we will continue till Wed as the children still need practice now and then). Today, we have retrieved the penmanship books from the container classroom and have returned them to the children.
The children then did a journal entitled " My Primary Two Experience" reflecting on the things learnt, as well as their high and low points, and what they would miss most from Primary Two.
Thanks.
Here's wishing all Hindu parents and children Happy Deepavali!
I will see your child on Wednesday.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!

Dear Parents,
I had a slight neck sprain and stiff neck and had to go home today at around 1pm. I am currently on medical leave for two days. Rest assured that Mrs Nair and a Mrs Yap would be helping me today and tomorrow. I have already informed them of what to do with the children, including an early dismissal of a child on Friday.
Today, the children did the following:
a) IT maths in the computer lab
b) Creation of a script for Show-and-Tell for the art piece done yesterday
c) Creation of a Maths Coursebook that will best suit your child's learning (Part 1)
Tomorrow, the children would be doing the following:
a) Journal - My ideal meal ( in relation to the hands-on home econs activity - which will be postponed till next Wed due to a change in the assigned time slot)
b) Creation of a Maths Coursebook that will best suit your child's learning (Part 2)
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!

Dear Parents,
Today the children had Team Art - by creating on each other's art piece and everyone in the class (All 30) -and also including Mrs Nair and I joined in - the children took back the final product at the end. They had to think of how to add on creatively ( but must be nice and positive) on the art piece passed to them. This activity focused on creativity and character values.
Then there was a short briefing by our Parent I/C for the Class Party for the children (Mrs Nair and I don't know what went on as we were invited out then...) .
Then the children completed their penmanship (if they had not done so) and also did a piece of art that represents them. This will be used for Show and Tell in later English lesson. Those who could not finish were asked to bring it back to complete so that we can start the Show and Tell together as a class.
P.S. Tomorrow, we will have IT Maths.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!
