KEEPING FIT!

Dear Parents of 1E,

Here is a glimpse of our Health Education class, under KEEPING FIT.

As a class, we have discussed ways to keeping fit, for example, playing soccer, playing badminton, swimming and I've also taught them a bit of Tai Chi in class. We practice our Tai Chi moves during P.E as warm up, also when we're getting tired in class ! Besides that, some of the girls got very excited when I said another way to keeping fit was dancing. They started singing the Wondergirls Nobody song, which was performed brilliantly by their seniors on Rainbow Day yesterday.

So as part of their Health Education Lesson.

I present to you 1E's WONDERGIRLS! dancing to NOBODY !

Girls are : Liang Pin, Konthear, Jorgina, Siew Ning, Clarissa and Nova. ( look at how happy they are !)

Liang Pin's demo




All the girls together !



Enjoy ! ( sorry for the poor audio quality and you can hear me speak! Opps!)

CNY celebrations

Dear Parents and 1E,

Here are some of the photos taken from our CNY celebration in school! We practiced the customary Mandarin oranges and well wishes exchange. We also enjoyed the CNY celebration held in our school hall.

Special thanks to the CNY coordinators and also the grandparents and parents who came down to support us. Thank You.

Enjoy the pictures kids ! (:



























Happy Chinese New Year to all and see you on Wednesday !

Friday 12 feb

Dear Parents of 1E,

Please be reminded that for Friday, 12th February 2010, there will be no Fitness Friday as they will be in their home clothes. I also strongly encourage everyone to be in their home clothes. Besides that, they are also encouraged to bring 2 oranges as a sign of good luck. These oranges will be exchanged with their classmates. As it is CNY celebration, I feel that there is no need for the pupils to bring a big bag tomorrow. They would only need to bring their oranges, pencil box/case, color pencils, recess things, red English file (to be signed and returned) and waterbottles.
Happy Chinese New Year to all.
Thank you for your kind co-operation.

Regards
Miss Sakinah

Primary 1 pupils adjusting to primary school life

Dear Parents of 1E

Our school counsellor, Miss Rachel Sng, came across an interesting article on schoolbag.sg. Do check it out as it may help in handling your child. (:

Housekeeping!

Dear Parents of 1E,

Please take note that there will be an individual phototaking session in school, therefore the children will have to be in their school uniform on Monday 18th January 2010. As P.E session will be cancelled on Monday, I would like to make a switch with Friday (22nd January 2010)'s Math period ,0815-0915. So Friday, since they are already in their P.E attire due to Fitness Friday, after Fitness Friday, we will proceed to have P.E instead of Math. On the other hand, on Monday (18th Jan 2010)'s P.E session will be swapped with Math.

Besides that, I would like to inform you that I've been noticing some of the pupils still carrying semester 2 books in their bag. Here is a list of basically what they would have to carry everyday.

- Pencil case
- A set of colour pencils
- glue & scissors
- Student Handbook
- Homework file
- A storybook ( for silent reading)
- Math Textbook 1A
- Chinese/Malay textbook.

For certain days such as Monday and Thursday, they would have to bring their music book and art materials respectively. Please ensure that the child packs his/her bag according to the timetable given. :)

Please also take note that spelling will be on Mondays and mental sums on Thursdays. I would need them to prepare a single lined exercise book for mental sums. In addition, I would like to request them to bring along another exercise book for Word Bank, this book will basically be their Grammar and Vocab practice book.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused. Thank you for your kind co-operation.

Best Regards
Miss Sakinah

Temperature Taking & Buddy system!

Hello parents and pupils of 1E!

Sorry for the absence from the blogging scene, I've been trying to upload some of the pictures up into my laptop but my bluetooth was down. Anyway, i hope everyone enjoyed their first week in school! We had our 3 days of orientation where we had recess in class, and for the next 3 schooldays, we were all attached to a buddy. Our buddies were all from Primary 5B and let's give a big THANK YOU to them for helping us during recess and showing us around the school!

Our Buddies and US!














































We have also received our personal thermometers! Parents of 1E, please ensure that the thermometers are always in their bags in case they fall i and their temperature would have to be
taken. I hope all of you are keeping your thermometers safe, because if you'll lose it, you will have to buy a new one from the school bookshop and it's not cheap. ):

Taking our temperature in class!

I would also like to thank the parents who came down to help me with the class decoration on Saturday. I wouldn't have done it without all your help and ideas. Thank You Very Much!

Do look out for new updates!
