P1 Orientation

10-11-2013

This is the first time Beatrice is stepping into her school for next 6 years.  She requested us to bring her for the registration etc but the chances of getting in is so slim I better not give her too much hope.

At the end of the orientation, she was given homework to do!  2 pages of english words to read and about 10 pages of chinese worksheet to complete!!

Anyway, the school has another pre-orientation just 2 weeks earlier.  Well, the nice phase is for the parents to buy the school books, uniform etc for the P1 children.  The not so nice phase, they actually carried out screening of the children to determine which class to place them to.

I asked Beatrice what did the teacher asked her.  She was given a list of words to read.  Well, my confident girl says she can read all but I do not know.  And the teacher asked question like is there any of your friends who are also coming to P1 next year.

Beatrice has another 3 classmates from Masterpiece who have also register for this primary school under the earlier phases.  Yu Xuan will be in the same class as Beatrice and Meagan and Evelyn will be in the same class.
