SCHOOL THEME


I_CARE Values



Integrity

•Encourage your child to do the right thing

even when no one is watching

•Guide your child to make choices based on

moral and ethical considerations



Care• Physical care : appearance of the child

: balanced diet for good health

• Check on the weight of school bag (4Kg) .

• Support your child’s learning by encouraging them

• Keep up-to-date about your child’s progress through

our Student’s Handbook

• Support your child’s learning by encouraging them and

not by enrolling them in too many activities/ tuition

classes.



Respect and ResponsibilityBuild Your Child’s Cyber Awareness

•Get them to share with you their favourite online

websites, things to do and what is cool.

•Spend time online together doing family activities.

•Talk to them about their online experiences; discuss

the benefits and risks of the Internet.

•Reassure them that it is OK to ask you questions or

talk to you if they run into problems with someone

online. Tell your kids what to do if they're harassed.



Respect and Responsibility

•Give your child personal space to develop

•Help your child to recognise he has a duty to

himself and others and should fulfil his

responsibilities with love and commitment

•Be a friend to your child but still be firm



Adventurous spirit

Adventurous spirit

•Allow your child to experience tensions and

stress that may arise from challenging ideas

and high expectations

•Be willing to move out of comfort zone



Excellence in all we do

•Appreciate your child’s effort

•Encourage your child to do everything to the

best of his/her ability



WISDOM From DEE HOCK

Hire and promote first on the basis of integrity, second,

motivation, third, capacity, fourth, understanding, fifth

knowledge, last and least, experience.

• Without integrity, motivation is dangerous

• Without motivation, capacity is impotent

• Without capacity, understanding is limited

• Without knowledge, experience is blind

• Experience is easy to provide and quickly put to good

use with the other qualities.


COMPASS for YOUR CHILD

Values & Life Attitudes

• Integrity and motivation

• Courage & Self-

Confidence

• Conviction & Curiosity

• Do Your Best

• Willing to Try

• Never Give Up

• Failure Yields Success


THE COMPASS for YOU, as PARENTS

• Love

• Recognise Your Path is Not Their Way

• Listen & Encourage

• Help Discover Talents, Abilities, Interests

• Value Individual Identity – Build, Do not Demolish

• Guide but allow learning by Discovery

• No failure- Only lessons

• Lead from the Front, Side, Behind, Within

• Refer to Parent Guide developed by MOE

• Love


Every Parent a Supportive Partner

“Every parent, hopes for his child to grow up to be

at his best. We share the same goal. When

parents, teachers and the community work

together. We multiply our efforts to make every

student an engaged learner. We multiply the

domains in which our children can find success.

We multiply the pathways to success and indeed

together we create new pathways to success.”

Mr Heng Swee Keat, Minister for Education

Work Plan Seminar Speech, 22 Sept 2015

The School of Tomorrow, TodayNo part of this material may be reproduced in any form or by any means without written permission from the school.


Rationale of Integration of Students

• to promote greater interaction between

GEP and non-GEP students,

• to allow them to learn, work and play

together on a daily basis

• to allow them to maintain regular contact

and develop closer bonds with each other

through meaningful shared experiences.



Benefits of Integration of Students

• More intellectually stimulating as a result

of learning with like-minded learners

• Greater appreciation and respect for

intellectual diversity

• Exposure to GE resources, pedagogical

approaches and teachers



Integration Approach

• A core of enriched GEP subjects (including

English Language, Mathematics and Science) is

taught in separate GEP classes;

• Students in integrated classes are comparable

in ability so that learning is optimised;



Integration Approach

• Schools have the latitude to decide which

subjects, and the number of subjects they

would like to include in integrated classes of

GEP and non-GEP students. On average, GEP

and non-GEP pupils would spend about one

quarter of their curriculum time together on a

weekly basis.

Berita@RosythBerita@Rosyth

Sekolah

Pada hari pertama di sekolah baru, saya berasa bimbang. Saya

tahu Kementerian Pendidikan telah memaksa Sekolah Rosyth

menjadi satu sesi tetapi Sekolah Rosyth terlalu kecil untuk

memuatkan seluruh sekolah dalam satu sesi. Sekolah Rosyth

terpaksa berpindah ke Ang Mo Kio ITE yang terletak di Ang

Mo Kio Avenue 5 hingga pegubahsuaian tempat asal selesai.

Apabila saya sampai di sekolah baru, kebimbangan saya disedari.

Kesesakan lalu lintas di luar sekolah menyebabkan ramai murid

lewat ke sekolah! Habuk meliputi lantai sekolah dan serpihan

bertaburan di seluruh sekolah! Padang sekolah pun penuh dengan

lubang dan kami dilarang pergi ke gelanggang bola keranjang!

P5 GIFT: Investigative Work in Science Module

Chloe and her family are having a holiday

in a remote part of Southern Australia.

Seeing a huge body of water, her dad

decided to take a swim.

“Hold on, Dad!” says Chloe. “I remember

reading that Great White Sharks are

prevalent in the waters of Southern

Australia… let’s not swim here.”

“Aren’t sharks found in the sea? This does

not look like the sea to me.” says Chloe’s

dad.

“I have an idea! Let’s find out the salinity of

the water to make sure.” says Chloe. “I’ve

learnt this during Science lessons.”

P5 GIFT: Writing Workshop

… he is attracted by the majestic beauty of the grove where an old banyan tree stands sheltering many blossoming trees. Their intoxicating perfume mingled with a soft cool breeze pleases him and he stands there dumbfounded.
