My son is in Pri 1. Homework still not at a level of concern. Maybe 1 subject per 3-4x a week max but as the parent abv mentioned. It’s the strict Chinese discipline that is a concern(not a bad thing) They hv a good mix of fun n learning journey (our time it was known as excursion). Principal is still pale in comparison IMO with mrs Lee who was the former principal. I served as a PV during her time and can see how much she engages with parents n students. Mrs Neo IMO is more cold and less engaging. It’s the teachers that I feel makes a maj diff in how the students excel along with parents. Now a days u can’t expect to have yr child in a school that takes all the initiative to steer the children. We as parents have a part to play.
Another point I’ve noticed is that the school drills and reinforce moral and civic values to student which I think is lacking in most children from 7-18. I think Nan Hua’s culture of its motto is strongly enforced and emphasise which makes me feel that its a good school of choice for my boy imho. -
Anyone who lives within 1 km of Nan Hua but with no PV? Will you try NH at Phase 2C? I have been invited to PV at QF and so if I opt in, I will be able to get in at Phase 2B with PV. What should I do?

You may like to PV at Qifa and register with this school during P2B. Come P2C, monitor the situation in Nan Hua and evaluate your appetite for balloting then. -

hihi...my boy is in P2 now, still not stressful. most of the time he can finish his hmwork within 1 hr. overall, hmwork is not a lot, even for school holiday if i compare with my friend's kid in other school. however, the chinese spelling can be quite tough...english one still consider simple...so far, my boy's P1 & P2 form teachers are very nice...as for Principal, din really interact with her b4 so cannot comment...dun worry, your gal should be able to adapt to P1. -

Thanks for the update. Looking at past years’ 2A2 records, high chance of the need to ballot in Phase 2A2 this year.
