English Oral to be conducted from 7.45 a.m. onwards.

Our class is the first class to be tested. Especially for girls, please do not be late. If you are late, pls report straight to the PAL room.


Important notes:
If you are absent on either day, only an MC is accepted for a make-up oral on 14 October.
For valid reasons (e.g. death of some beloved ones), it is only decided on case-by-case by the P/VP, which I will need to seek for approval. Pls let me know immediately once you can't make it on the day.

Thanks and regards
Mdm Chan

Announcement 23 September (IMPT)

Dear all,

Please note that the P2 MT oral and English oral will take place on:

12 and 13 October (during lessons time) 

I’ve given out notes for the oral today. Please revise with them. 

Next week is the last week before compo. There is 1 last compo before the compo exam.

For this weekend, please rewrite or type out the compo. If you are typing, please email it back to me at: ivy.ym.chan@gmail.com (so I can print out a copy and share with the class for the gallery walk in our classroom.)

For next week’s spelling, please study and revise back all the compo phrases that had been tested before.

I have updated online homework. An SA2 paper will commence everyday at Learnlogy starting from 30 September. For McOnline, please continue to work with the grammar/vocabulary items as assigned. These will form the base of the questions asked for SA2 paper.

Thanks and regards,

Mdm Chan
