Yup, at the rate this crouching tigress is going, she is ready to spring into action next year, jumps on all her preys and moves up to the top class in P4!! Happy Mama, your dd and you can do it! All the best!!

this one maybe not tigress....i think \"minnie mouse\"..... better watch out, all the elephants in Resp 9....[/quote]Hahaha!!! I was laughing when I read about the tigress, minnie mouse and elephants thingy until DD & DH asked me why...

Wa, after hearing all these, I become more stressed for next year... I hope she will improve but getting into top class may be a challenge... Will try hard! :xedfingers:

[quote=\"Trapwithin\"]Was just looking at the KSP Academic Ranking for 2010.

PHPPS has once again done well.
It climbs from Rank 8 to Rank 7 in 2010.
Once again, it has shown its potential by being the only non-GEP School in Top 10.

Kudos to all Students, Teachers and Parents.
The P has done well too.
:udawoman: :udaman:

Excellent for a non-GEP school to be ahead of the other 3 GEP schools in ranking. PHPPS can be easily be top 5 if given GEP status.

Yeah, Every Year PH \"CONTRIBUTE\" about 10 to 20 P3 Top Students to GEP school, TO HELP them Maintain Top 10 School Status ....

Ha-Ha ....
:lol: :lol:[/quote]The P3 \"Contribution\" makes it even harder because the good ones take their PSLE in \"GEP Sch\". So the fact that after \"losing\" the good ones, they are still able to maintain the Top 10 is very commendable.

[quote=\"janet_lee88\"]Actually I would say PH parents can hardly relax...given the competitiveness of the kids and pressure from the principal to PERFORM

Who says parents cannot relax :lol: ? From P1 to P2 I intend to relax. I'll just teach ds whatever I feel like teaching him under the sun, regardless of the syllabi. Will only follow the syllabi from P2 onwards cos by then got streaming mah.

Hi markfch, when my kid was in K, i said something similar as you and could not understand why Spore parents are so KS. but after entering PH, i still got trapped into this competitive pressure.. the environment rubs into you. well, that's why we are in KS forum now? :lol:[/quote]It is like a Whirlpool .. you will get suck in.

Guess what...i only received my p3 son's letter on class posting yesterday. We called on 16/12 when we still didn't receive it. PH said to let them know again on 17/12 if still no letter. So we called on 17/12 again and they promptly sent a new one. We received the new letter on 20/12 (stamp dated 17/12). Then yesterday we received the first letter with stamp dated 10/12! I wonder where did the first letter go during the last 12 days. :lol:

Classic example that SingPost longer able to fulfil next day delviery as they claim. I have observe this trend in the last few years.

But it was a little late, cos SA1 results pulled my DD down eventhough she got 96 all subjects for SA2. :stupid:

Your girl is an all rounder. That's very good. :celebrate:

lizhi, you can checked out the first page... there is a list of PHPPS parents in this forum and you will know which level their kids are in....


you can go \"marketing\" together with E3 since both the dd are in the same class. you can also invite happy mama along, her dd's class is just next to your dd's class...haha...

yup, checked the first page just now, found the parents named in \"mummy\", their kids are definately in the same level, belong to P3. hehehe
i am already familiar with E3 and Happy mama these few days.. :celebrate:

Hi markfch,

A friend of mine commented on the competitiveness in Pei Hwa...ex-colleague of hubby also made the same comment. It's hard to explain to any parent what the environment in Pei Hwa is...until they get sucked into it. That's why this thread has 400 pages ! That must be a reason.

:welcome: to Pei Hwa.

I know, I know. DS kindy principal highlighted to me that PH is very academically driven at least on 3 separate occasions when she knew that ds is going there. Is she giving me some kind of hint? :?

However I also heard that at P1/P2 level (not specifically PH), there is very little homework and most kids will be able to finish everything in sch. So can't be so bad what.
