Anglo-Chinese School (Junior)

Ya I was quite disappointed when there was no CCA fair this year and P1s also couldn't join the CCA online application.


Later on, us P1 parents received an email from the Sailing CCA, inviting us to attend a talk if we wanted to let our P1s join. Maybe they had leftover places after the main exercise, I dunno. But there are some basic requirements to be met, eg for obvious reasons, must be able to swim 50m in the open sea with life vest, something like that.

Anyway, not much loss to me. My boy is happily playing away with his toys or reading for leisure most afternoons. Other afternoons are filled with Chinese enrichment and music lessons. Sports lessons on weekends.

I hope they'll revise the rule again as my younger boy will join in 2 years time.

Hi, for chinese and music lessons, these are conducted in school or do you mean elsewhere?

Those are my own externally paid enrichment program for my son lol. Otherwise he'd be spending too much time on iPad. I'd rather he pursue his interest in music (which entails daily practice).

Hi,

Does ACS Junior offer higher chinese from P1 or P5 onwards? Thanks.

P1 to P4 no Higher Chinese offered. At end of P4, those who score better in Chinese will be offered to do Higher Chinese for P5 and 6.

Hi, anyone has any recommendations for after school care near ACS Junior for Primary 1? I have contacted Kiddiewinkie. But they no longer have after school care. Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you~!

Hi...These are the 2 after-school care centres which I see the boys use:
1. The Learning Harbour (inside Cairnhill CC)

Do you know which is better? My boy will be going to P1 next year and we have yet to find a suitable student care.

They are both very different. LH has a much smaller student:teacher ratio, but no shower or shuttle bus facilities. It’s up to you which you prefer actually. Do bring your son to visit both, and see which one he feels more comfortable at. If he likes the place, that’s half the battle won already IMO.

Thanks:) Will go check them out.
