Hi BMM,


Thank you for the response. Unfortunately all my family members are travelling during this period, hence nobody around to make the visit. Even their website seems to be under construction. Not able to access much of their information.

I also understand that Hindi is offered as a second language in QTPS. Any feedback on hindi classes?

Thank you

Hi All,


I am trying to connect with parents whose children have opted Hindi for second language at Queenstown Primary School. My daughter is due to start Pri 1 in 2014. We are currently overseas and planning to return in Sept. As such I am trying to get some info before the registration starts.

Thank you

Information on Co-curricular programmes/activities are still unavailable. The main page and few other links works. I am also trying to access their PSLE results for recent yrs.

I think every school has some issues. Just try to make sure that our kids don't mix with the wrong clique. I was from a very good school, but all along there are problem teens and g**g, I just make sure I don't mix with them.


My kids who are studying in QTPS now are doing fine and I like the way the principal and vice principal's direction.

- Thanks, kwokwc, very sensible words indeed. I have since spoken to people who live in the area and who know ppl with kids studying in the school and they very much echo your praise for the (new?) principal's approach, and feel somewhat more reassured now...

Hi hi, it's been very long since I've written here. I received some PMs recently from concerned parents thinking of registering at QtPS about the issue I raised before, and I wanted to write a bit more to clear the air and dispel those concerns.

We did eventually register and send our DC to QtPS. I have to say that our concerns proved to be unfounded. DC settled in well and made good friends. Also, I volunteered to come to a P2 class to speak to them as part of the Junior Achievement programme that the school organised. In all of our experiences, there were no sign of any g**gs.

I would really recommend QtPS for those still on the fence. It does have a nice community atmosphere and there is a really good Parent Support Group whose members volunteer for things including helping weaker students with learning to read, organising events, etc.

Also, the school was refurbished last year and even has a new multipurpose hall, so the surroundings are quite pleasant too.

Can I check if there is any orientation as I am considering placing my child in 2015 and thus have to register in 2014.

You may want to consider to attend their open house next year (before the registration for the new intake for Year 2015).

The orientation in Nov is for children joining the school next year.
