>Hi pink_daisy,

Thank you for your replying. I'm so glad for your son. Is he doing fine in Unity Pri? I hope there is no more of bullying case.
I'm not so worried about the standard, but more on bullying cases. This is the second time I heard... and that boy has since transferred to Yew Tee Pri School.
Also, is it true there are a lot of Malays in Kranji Primary? And does Kranji Primary segregate classes?
Hope you don't mind answering my questions, look forward to your reply. Thank you.

tx.so far, no bullying cases in unity pri.
ya..heard oso got alot of malays there..for instance, at the bus stop where my son takes his schoolbus, he's the only chinese!
i tink they do..they got tis happy,merry and last one i forgot.. for their english class..depending on their std of english.. thought i don noe how they segregate..

Thank you Pinky_daisy for taking time to reply my questions.


Think all the children who register get into Kranji Pri. Lets hope for the best-- good teachers and good classmates for them at Kranji Pri!

Oh, btw, my girl already hoping that she will get into the yellow house?? Cos she likes yellow t-shirt.

Hi Everyone!

My son also will be joining KPS next yr . Didin't get into De LA Selle in phase 2C altho living a few blks away. Anyway, didin't have a good feeliing abt this sch.

I also heard the new principal is good! Think she was present at the registration day if i didn't recognise wrongly, introducing her sch to parents.

I asked the staff on the registration day abt when the sch will be in full day session. She said not so soon. P1 & 2 for next 2 yr will still remain as afternoon session. They no need renov & is waiting MOE to decode when they're converting. Also good for us, no need so rush in the morning.

Btw, they don't have SA. Their swimming class is compulsary becos it is within their class module unlike DLS is optional during off class hr.

Have you all receive the more details from the sch other than the orientationd day date (20 NOV)?

Tks.

Hi ww1228,


No worries, I sure KPS is a good school too. Because after asking around the children and parents of KPS, they give good feedbacks. In fact, those negative feedbacks are given by non-KPS parents and outsiders!

Yes, i have received the orientation letter. My girl is looking forward to KPS, although KPS is not our first choice. She likes the uniform, school T-shirt and the colour of the school building as she comments is very colourful and cheerful. I think so too whenever I pass-by KPS. KPS’s building definitely is the best-looking… which i think is good for the children as the colour will cheer them up!

Cheer!

Hi Lattes,

Tks for encouragement. As i told my son, going any sch is not the most impt but he is to study hard. If so, he still can be the top student. He feels interior when his childcare classmates said he can't get into DLS! Nowadays, kids like to compare.

Anyway, KPS is under SEED programme for lower pri. I feel that will be better for my son who cant take too much stress! :lol: He shld be happier to go to sch then. Same to yr gal too. As long as the sch env is good, teacher is good. We shldn't be worrying too much.

Btw, the orientation day is my son's BD, he's excited abt it. R they giving us the boooklist on the spot for purchasing the book tt day? Heard they no need to wear uniform but PE attire for P1, correct?

Tks for yr advise, Lattes.

Hi Hi,


My kid is studying in Pri 1 at KPS this year. As usual, did not get into DLS. Surprise KPS not as bad afterall. Pri 1 and 2 , wear t-shirt and short while Pri 3 onward additional shirt , so save cost and better for kids. Teachers friendly and helpful , while principal also approachable. School work not as easy or less challenging than you think. My son do enjoy school with like homework to do , becos he did it in class quite relaxing for him and less stressful for me ... in this way, he can focus on both academic and his hobbies.

Hi West,

Great to hear some comment from existing student's parents! I also heard that with the new principal, the sch is getting better. We're lucky to have the new principal!

Anyway, SW is also under SEED program, they produce top student. No worries.

They don't have SA but have CA right?

Sorry to ask, :oops: could i have your son's P1 text books for recycling next yr? :?: Not sure if there is any changes to the list!

Thank you very much. :celebrate:
