      Hmm, still no replies from fellow parents.

      Now left wondering if I should take this as a positive or negative for the school... oops.

      Zac's mum, am still waiting to hear from the parents. If I find anything, will condense the answers and share with you. Cheers.
      I think if you ask the same questions on the other schools thread, you are going to get the same response. Some like Musang King, some like D24, I like Ang Hay. One man's meat is another man's poison.

      My suggestion would be for the questions to be distilled further. If your post can be answered in 280 characters, that would be a good one 😉 If you are looking for a thesis, it would be TL; DR or TL; don't bother to reply.

          Hi, my P1 boy is complaining that his shorts are too tight for him. Anyone wants his old shorts, please PM me. If I am not wrongly, his shorts are size 24. Thanks.

          can I have it?

          tried to PM but the message is stuck in outbox - don't know why.

          Outbox means the message is sent but not read. It's confusing, I know.

            Hi parents with kids in Henry Park Primary:
            - Are you happy that your child got into this school? Yes/No/Neutral
            - Why or why not?

            - Anyone with kids in the GEP in this school?Is it worth it to switch from another school to Henry Park for its P4-6 GEP program? Yes/No/Neutral
            - Why or why not?

              DD graduated from Henry Park last year. She had a great 6 years with the school. Of course there were both ups and downs but overall, good. I feel the school is a good balance. Not too academically stressful but still provides good academic support. There are special programmes, some all get to benefit, some only selected students. Very caring and supportive teachers.

              I am not sure what kind of info you are looking for. Perhaps a little more details as to what it is you want to know?

                Thank u very much!


                Specifically, I would like to know…I heard that the GEP program at HPPS is very good. As in, it is implemented much better than the other GEP schools. The official curriculum may be the same, but I dunno why people keep saying HPPS and SHPS in particular are “better” run.

                Any clue if/why that’s true? Does it hinge on the teachers? Or principal? Or what?

                  Really good teachers, in my humble opinion.
