Hi there


My girl is in 1 Faith and she's really enjoying her new school life! I'm glad to hear from her.
The school teachers, and \"buddies\" attached to them at the 1st week or 2 really take good care of them..
They r allowed to go into general office make calls if we arrive late, I would say everyone in the school is very hostile and
Polite . Glad I made the right choice !
Btw anyone of u sending ur girl to after school care ? cos I'm single working mom and it's hard for me to spend time on her homeworks
How much is it for the after school care in SJC , would like to know more.
Thanks! :please:

Hello there, can I have feedback if your child is in IJ already and how has it been? Considering for my child in 2017 registration. .

Hi pialinng75, mine is in P2 this year and is blossoming along. A couple of very important pull factors for us were the fact that the school culture truly embraces all aspects of a child's growth - academic, character, integrity...and no stark disparity across the social classes. Academics are very important to us, but it's not everything. At the end of the day, outstanding academics but unsavory, hoity-toity-superior character represents failure. I do not know about others. These are my personal opinions and core reasons why I picked OLQP.

If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me. I will try my best to answer them.
Good Luck.

My girl is there in SJC. I think its about $300 a month. But they are closing in May. So till then I will be looking around. My other choice would be The Kids' Club at Jurong Kechil, near Beauty World. Word has it that many OLQP students attends the student care there.

Hi all,


am considering of registering my dd at olqp for the coming P1 reg. However, after school care might be a problem since st Joseph SC is closing. Any alternative options for after school care that we can consider?

Hi all, OLQP is one of my options for P1 registration this year but I noticed that the take up rate so far is much poorer than the other schools in the area. Any idea why? From parents’ sharing, OLQP seems like a good school

I would like to know as well. However, i think is the location of OLQP and most of them choose west spring, bukit panjang as well as greenridge.

Are you going to reg still? Phrase 2c?

I'm trying for SCGS under 2B first. Will try for OLQP under 2C if I cannot get a place at SCGS cos we prefer a girls' school. I'm hoping the poorer take up compared to the rest of the other schools is not cos of any negative developments at OLQP cos it was rather popular in past years...

My daughter is at p1 at this Chij now. She is very proud and happy with her school. In my opinion I find the communication with her teachers are not so straight forward. In this technology age the teachers refuse to "whatApp" .contact is only via emails which according to the school teachers will reply within 3 working days ?? Duh? Sometime even after a wk there is no reply from the teacher. Their primary 1 class is at upper levels. My daughter class is at level 4 and taking lift is not allowed. Almost everyday there’s homework. And they started dictation with 1 full paragraph straight away aft doing 1 word spelling.

They run lots of motivational workshop for parents. Their school bus service is well organised.
