        Hi, I am waiting to register my girl in APS. Can someone share with me about Pro-teach student care service? Anyone knows about their criteria in getting a place in the student care & the charges like. Appreciate that.

          Hi Murri,

          Based on last year's registration, balloting was required for PR within 1km for the remaining approx 15 vacancies. Most parents of existing ALPS students predict that this year, PR might not stand a chance. Do monitor your chance on last day P2C registration. Good Luck!

            So far, most of the P1 teachers (for English, Maths, Chinese) in this school -

            Are they experienced teachers (taught in other primary schools before but transferred over this new school to teach), or are they mostly fresh young inexperienced graduates, newly trained, just come out fresh from NIE ?

              From Phase 2B to 2C Supplementary -
              Only SG citizenship & PR children can enrol.

              If your child is a foreigner -
              You come under Phase 3.

              But Alexandra primary was already full house last year, before Phase 3.
              No chance for foreigners.

                The teachers are experienced teachers that have taught in other schools before, at least for my child's class..... believed other classes shld be as well

                    If you were me, which school would you choose ?
                    .
                    Go for the one, where you do not need to ballot : can enrol your child safely, on the last day of Phase 2C.

                      Hi parents, I’m considering to register DS in ALPS.


                      Saw some parents mentioned about the high school bus fees. How much is it actually? We are staying in Tiong Bahru area. Anyone staying in the same area and taking the school bus? Around what does the school bus pick up your child in the morning and what time does your child reach home after school? Would I be able to opt for only one-way arrangement (to send DS home after school)? How much would it be?

                      Secondly, does the school have any CCAs now? What are they?

                        I think you may give the bus company a call to find out the info.


                        Can check tel number fr aps website.

                        CCA only starts when kids reach P3. Currently sch only offers PAL activities. If im not wrong, they r swimming, canvas art and hip hop dance.
