West Spring Primary

Wow!
Many parents interested to put their kids in West Spring.
My husband and I are beginning to worry now as our home address is more than 2km. We attended chat session last Sunday and managed to speak to the Principal concerning our son chances of getting into the school successfully. Although, there are 209 vacancies left but we still hopping that there is a chance for my son because this is the 1st year and the 2nd Phase opening registration exercise for West Spring. Unlike for next year, we strongly feel that the no of vacancies left at Phase 2C is fewer due to there will be Phase 1, Phase 2A2 and 2B (earlier phases). Therefore, the chances for parents in Phase 2C will be very slim.
We really like the programmes planned by Mrs Jacinta Lim. Listening to her sayings on that day, we believe that she is a very good Principal who will bring many successes to this school all-rounded …that’s why I am very interested!
To all parents, we wish good luck and hope to see many parents at Beacon Pr Sch, the registration centre for West Spring Pr. -
my concern is how you treat the students, to me they are the most impt ppl in the school. Cause they are the one who do you proud for your school.
I seem some teacher doesn’t even care about the student, they give comment "let them settle themself", instead of making sure they are safe as not all kids are independent enough.
They are just planning to rush home every day, instead the "I can do" enthusiasm
Maybe I can only find these teachers in my primary school days, nowadays young teacher so diff. -
Me too!
I am getting excited on the P1 registration fever although my son is not yet ready for P1 next year. He is born in 2009 and can only be admitted into P1 in year 2016. I wonder how can I be eligible for Phase 2B for a child whose parent has joined as a parent volunteer at West Spring Pr.
Will there be a form for me to fill in or should I call the school to register myself as I am totally new to this kinda thingy?
Which year should I join as a parent volunteer because I will register him in 2015?
Thank you in advance! -
I agree with you that it is important to have dedicated & caring teachers. That’s why I am so glad to hear that West Spring will hand pick the best teachers for the P1s next year!
My relative told me the principal chooses her teachers one.
And many parents always write letters to commend her teachers for being so caring to pupils. Every year, her school gives out awards to their caring teachers to keep up the good work with their pupils! She is an Inspiring Leader who leads by examples!
So, parents should not worry on the qualities of her staff.

Will be registering my daughter on the 30 Jul which is also her birthday. I think this is the best birthday gift I can give to her. Really impress with West
Spring Primary. See the rest of you all at Beacon Primary School. -

Thanks Julia,2 more days! So excited.
First time doing registration but once I secure West Spring, my 2nd child secure place in West Spring when his turn to go Pri 1. So very worth it. Next year Pri 1 registration, West Spring sure have phase 1 & 2B some more. Stiff competition!
My sister in law actually registered her child under 2B in school in Choa Chu Kang for next year but now thinking of sending her girl to West Spring so that she and my girl in same school studying together. She also like the play base approach in getting children to enjoy learning through experience. I think they will also remember better. I looked through the updated FAQs and find that the school cares for children as got homework policy to make sure children dont get overloaded with too much work at young age. I see one of my neighbour's child everyday so much homework, only get to sleep at 10pm, he is only in P3! Everytime I see him, he looks so sleepy as I think not enough sleep. Thank goodness West Spring teachers will also help to keep some books in class cupboards so that school bag not too heavy.
Thank you West Spring for caring our childern's welfare.
Thumbs up!
You just gave me 2 more points....
Haven't read the forum for some time. Tot I took a look before registering on Tues. Surprised to see so many discussions about the new West Spring. I have decided also to join West Spring, I think many will agree with me:
1. So far, 209 places left. That would mean the 1km have high chances.
2. New buildings, new facilities. While many schools upgrade the next few years, this West Spring is ready.
3. Principal has good track records. Come from good school.
4. Teachers selected from other good schools. Not new teachers who not experienced.
5. 210 Primary 1 pupils. My child gets all the attention.
6. Response time. The school responds very fast, both on feedback through phone and emails.
7. Parent engagement. Many of us went for chat session. School is very approachable and engaging.
8. I also saw Phase 2b, not PV yet. Must be grassroots leader signed up. They might have some information good about the school. Good indication also.
9. Play-based Learning. Link form kindergarten.
10. Homework policy.
10 reasons to queue up at Beacon on Tues. -
