Important Notice for PE/HE subjects

Dear parents,

Thank you to some of you who have emailed and highlighted to me on the PE/HE periods matter.I have clarified with the teachers, Ms Lee and Mrs Tan on their arrangements made and they have advised me accordingly. There will be no change in timetable because the teachers have made mutual swaps officially and Mr Edmund Tan is in the know. Do take note of the details as stated below for your perusal.

1) PE attire is required for both PE & HE periods.

2) On Tuesdays, during the double PE-GYM periods,there will be 1 period allocated to HE and 1 period allocated to folk dance. The reason as to why this arrangement is being made is because their gym classes will only be starting in Semester 2.

3) Their HE books are in class.

4) For the other two periods(one stated as HE on Thursday and the other as PE on Friday)will encompass the teaching of sports and games.

Hope this clarifies any of your doubts. Please do let me know if you have any other concerns.Thank you.

Regards,
Ms.Laaven
