      Hi DecJan,


      Mind to tell me why you choose Greenwood over other schools in Woodlands? Is it because Greenwood is nearer to your house?

      Hi worryfather,
      we were looking at Admiralty Pri and Greenwood Pri then as both were near to our place. Though Admiralty Pri was clearly more popular going by the balloting needed, we chose Greenwood because that was our son's choice. We drove him to see both schools and somehow, he felt that he liked Greenwood and did not want Admiralty.

      Over the last few years, I see much changes to the school. My son is in Sec 1 now and my daughter is in P3. My daughter has tougher test/exam papers as compared to when my son was in P1 to P3. Other changes include having wushu and gymnastic for PE lessons, as well as mid-autumn celebration πŸ˜„

      Wow wushu and gym for PE, so nice. Heard they have in-line skating for P5 or P6. That's interesting !

        Hi justsay,
        that's right, my neighbour's boy had in-line skating in P4/P5 (can't remember). And from this year, the school has an Art Elective Programme for selected pupils . This 24-wk programme is aimed at providing artistically inclined pupils the opportunity to deepen their skills in the various visual art forms and techniques:D

            Hi zzsunshine,
            I presume you live near GWPS and so shd be more than 2km from Chongfu. Siince you sounded more for Chongfu, have you tried calling Chongfu to gauge your chance before deciding? πŸ˜„

              Are you asking us, or is the question mark a typo?
