[Sembawang] Primary Schools

[wahwah]

Hi,

I have a girl studying at Canberra and my son graduated last year. I can say that we are happy with the school. Quoting from my girl, "I am never bored because there are so many activities throughout the year…we like to take part in competitions because the Mr Wong (Principal) always say it’s good exposure and training for us and it’s ok even if we don’t win anything…my teachers are super nice…only canteen food not so fantastic!" Fr my son, " I missed CPS! …too bad I can’t take part in the next musical but I will definitely go n watch it…P6 teachers were great, especially Chinese tr, …it is not stressful even during P6…Mr Wong is much better than my current sch principal…"

I am not sure if those comments from my kids answer your questions. Do feel free to drop me PM if you want to know anything else about the school.

Hi Wahwah

Thanks for the kind reply:)
Most likely we will try CPS
Back up its sembawang pri, not too bad too since it will just be 3 min walk next time, distance being the factor.

So balloting over and my son didn’t get in. 2nd on waiting list but now deciding between the 3 remaining schools. Wellington … Sembawang primary…or Northoaks. . All within 1km…any thoughts or recommendations?

I guess Sembawang parents not IT savvy… or not in this forum anyway. Well anyway to whomever still browsing and wondering tomorrow where to put your kid in 2Cs… i registered mine to Northoaks Primary online. Took a walk from my house and it was ok… but will buy a bicycle when the time comes.


Alright this primary school process been a pain but adios and all the best to all parents. And i think MOE should look into the 1km dist thing and make it even nearer. like 500m and lower.

Congrats, Ac78! Wishing your child a fulfilling 6 years in Northoaks! A bike is a good idea - good exercise

sembawang primary should have in-house student care. Unless is terminated already.

Sembawang Primary has a Feiyue student care inside the school. or you may want to check out the one at the community centre opposite the school.
