L.E.A.F day preparation

More than 30 parents came together to prepare for the L.E.A.F days games.

On the 12-13 Mar, Lasallians will be putting aside their academic books to participate in character building activities where they will learn and experience new skills and be fulfilled at the end of the project. The theme for the LEAF project this year is: Learn and Be Enriched .. Try ad Never Give Up.

The PSG will be running 10 different activies on the day, to enchance some of the good values that our Lasallians should be possess.

Prayer Room gets a facelift !

A Holy Water font has been added, Lasallians can now bless themselves when they enter ther Prayer Room.

Holy water is blessed by a priest, and is thus consecrated to God. It is used to remind us in a symbolic way of our entry into life through the baptism of water. Because water is a cleanser and a refresher, it reminds us when we use it of the need for clearing our conscience of sin, and for cleansing our mind of distractions that interfere with prayer. Holy water does not produce these effects, but is a visible, bodily help to activate ourselves to prayer and worship by these and similar thoughts.



We have also added a Prayer Basket for Lasalllians to leave their joy, sorrows or petition for God.

Reading Moms trained !

On the first Wednesday of the school year, 12 parent volunteers gathered in Computer Lab One for a briefing on the 'I Can Read' programme by Md Koh Ting Ting. Previously, we were using reading cards with the P3 and P4 students. This year, the students will use the computer programme, PM Plus, as well as the reading cards, to inject some fun into the reading sessions.

Md Koh was very helpful and shared with us her expertise and experience in this area. Her energy and enthusiasm were inspiring. We hope we can help these students, who come to us once a week, to improve their command of the English language and to develop a love for reading. We also want to give them a good dose of encouragement and some TLC every week!

Blessed 2009 to everyone !

First project from Parent Support Group this year! Members were engaged at the 2 gates of the school to welcome the P1 Lasallians and parents. Either the milk powder is getting nourishing or due to global warming, the children are really getting smarter and more independent. Not a single Lasallian cried. But one mommy did !!

Polymer Clay workshop

I am thankful to DeLa Salle School for organizing the Clay Making Activity and the Parenthood Talk on 08/11/2008.

I am fortunate to have gained these wonderful experiences through such meaningful activities. The process of the clay making conducted by the speaker, Mr How was clear and precise. We all enjoyed the whole session and the molding of the snail fridge magnet is something we had not done before.

As for the Parenthood Talk, I have learnt to communicate better with my children through many ways. From when to teach to when to punish, everything was really useful.

On the whole , we as parents enjoyed it very much and we strongly felt that the Speaker, Mr How’s suggestions and guidelines were extremely useful.

With Thanks For Everything!
