Enrichment in Week 3

Dear Parents,

Enrichment classes will start next week. The school has requested these vendors to send their teachers to pick up your child at 1.15 pm if they have signed up for enrichment. These teachers will then bring the children down for lunch in the canteen. These children will then be gathered in the meeting point at 1.45 pm and will be brought to the respective venus for their enrichment lessons, not later than 2.15 pm.

There will also be transport at 4 pm to bring your child back home. Do check with your bus operator for the Bus Number, as your child may not be taking the same bus as the one that sends him/her to school.

Please remind your child to stay back if you have signed him/her for that particular lesson.

Thank you.

Best Regards,
Mrs Jessica Tan

Meet the Parents Session with the Principal

Dear Parents/Guardians,
Mrs Lee, the Principal, will be holding a meeting with you on 9 Jan 2010 (Saturday) at 8.30 am, in the school Hall. As there is limited parking lots within the school compound, you might want to park your car at the nearby HDB carparks near the school.

Important Message for Parents

1) P1 Orientation 2009
A 3-days orientation programme with broad themes like Care and Share, Personal Hygiene, Conflict Resolution, Buddy Programme etc was planned for the children. We have also incorporated guided tours around the school compound. Pupils were also taught the values of teamwork and coperation through games in the hall. They were also told a story titled "Apple Story" which emphasizes the school's belief that every child is a star in Nanyang. We believe that the children would make beneficial gails from our orientation programme and we would appreciate your assistance to reinforce the learnt concepts at home. We welcome any feedback on this programme.

2) Communication with Parents
In each child's diary, there is a label with your child's form class blog address. Teachers will update their blogs at least once a week or may post important notices. Do check the blog regularly.

3) Five Minutes Break Interval
The school has implemented two sessions of 5 minutes break interval during the curriculu, they are from 8.45 am to 8.50 am and 12.30 pm to 12.25 pm. The objectives of this break are to allow children to visit the toilets, prepare for the next lesson, take things out from their lockers and communicate with their friends. It is a little time out for pupils and a vision break between lessons.

4) Hair Length of Girls
The school has decided to allow girls to keep long hair. However, girls with long hair have to keep them tied up and look neat. Our teachers may advise parents accordingly if your child is unable to keep it neat and tidy during school hours.

4) Remedial and After School Enrichment ProgrammeThere will be NO remedial lesson for our P1 pupils in Term 1 and after school enrichment progammes will commence from Week 3.

5)Lunch Programme
The school sells pre-packed lunch that cost $1 for children who are staying back for enrichment classes at the canteen. Please make provision for your child's lunch if he/she is staying back.
