Hi...saw from NYPS' website that there are quite a few enrichment courses available...are these generally popular?


Also, any feedback on Learning Bliss please? Is it common for the child to go for the enrichment courses in school before going to Learning Bliss?

Thanks in advance!

Hi VooVoo

Normally the kids attending LB will go there for lunch before returning to school for their enrichment/CCAs which normally start around 2pm. For P1s, LB will assign teachers to escort the pupils to back gate (at hilltop) & fetch them from there after the classes at 4pm - at least for the 1st term/semester or so.

Thanks, Mickeyhmh!


Would really appreciate if you could share any feedback on kids attending after school care, or LB? How’s the environment and quality of teachers?

My DH is apprehensive about sending DS there but I think at least there’s someone to eye DS rather than for him to be watching TV at home after school…

DS1 has been attending LB since P1. Teachers there are nice & friendly, tho' turnover of younger ones tend to be a bit high. The older staff has been there to 'mother' my kid since P1. They make sure the kids eat lunch, finish their homework, revise their spelling/tingxie, do their assessments (provided by LB). Kids are split into respective levels to do their work. They get to play together after 5 (waiting to go home).
Gives me time to bond with DS1 instead of having to nag him to finish his work after I reach home. Don't have anyone at home to look after him as I'm FTWM with no maid or grandparents at home. So LB really helps put my mind at ease in terms of his lunch & homework. Am not looking for LL-type enrichment/tuition, so am very satisfied so far.

I am a happy mummy sending my girl to student care too but of course she opt for another student care nearer to our home.

I totally agree with Mickey about the food, homework and preparation for exam. The student care that my dd goes to starts way before I nag at her. So I have more time to do other things with my girl when she gets home.
