Emails to Parents "BOUNCED"

Dear Guys,

Please kindly check with your parents if they have been receiving my emails. I do have some emails that are returned to me, due to reasons I am unsure of. If they haven't been receiving any emails, you may get them to email me at melissa@vs.moe.edu.sg.

Do let your parents know that all my emails are posted on the blog as well and they are encouraged to read the blog regularly for information and updates.

I am encouraging all of you to maintain an open communication between you and your parents. That way, we won't have to deal with any issues on distrust and miscommunication.

I hope you've all done well for your CA1.
This is not time to slack and celebrate... Sorry to burst your bubbles. But 2009 is the year of the Ox, a year or sheer hard work and sacrifices to plough through the impossible, and of course.... reap the rewards in due time.

I'm working on the "Happy Hours" time table... yea, its a 'After-School Hours' Study group session that will be conducted after class on alternate weekdays. This will soon be implemented in Term 2. It is optional but all of you are encouraged to join in. ;)

Have a good weekend ahead.
Mrs Melissa Lim

Forgot to have this posted on blog. My apologies!!! ;)

Dear Parents of 2G,

Thank you for taking time off to meet Ms Boey and me at our 1st Sec 2 Meet-The-Parents session. It is my pleasure to catch up with you again.

Due to time constraints last evening, we did not managed to discuss as much issues as we hope to. Hence, should you have more concerns regarding your son, please do not hesitate to contact me or Ms Boey. We will be happy to assist you.

Do be reminded that the CA1 tests will begin next week. Hence, please kindly ensure that your child is revising in preparation for the assessments this weekend.

As mentioned in our discussions, I'll be arranging for 'After-School Hours' sessions for the boys on alternate weekdays of the week, where they can do some constructive revision together as a class. These sessions are optional and will best cater to boys who are unoccupied for a couple of hours in the afternoons while waiting for the commencement of their CCAs, and those who are usually unsupervised at home. As promised, I will discuss this with Ms. Boey and will have a timetable ready for your reference, should you like your child to join us. We hope to have this class study program implemented in Term 2. Meantime, do continue to keep in touch and stay tuned to the VS2G2009 class blog @ our usual blogsite = www.vs1g2008.blogspot.com for regular updates and happenings in "A Day In The Class of 2G".

Once again, thank you for taking time to meet us last evening.

Til then,

Take care and have a great weekend.

Hey guys,

Here are more pictures of you. Some of the pictures are really blur and yucky so I had to crop them. ;)
