Nan Chiau Primary

I was told it was random arrangement for the P1 children. Each student care varies in costs, about S$300 per kid, and each student care has their own set of time table for the kids. Will do you good to check out one and ask for their daily routine at the centre to get a feel.

Hi, after yesterday's balloting, my boy got a place in NCPS for Primary one next year.. phew!! It's a relieve.


Any advise on what will be done on orientation day? I reckon will be the day that need to get all the uniforms and books. :?

Hi sysherlene


Congrats to u and welcome on board

Hi Sysherlene,


Congrats!!

Last year, the newly minted P1s bought their uniforms in the first two weeks of the Nov school holidays, and they were required to wear the NCPS uniforms for the orientation.

Things your child will need to bring - pencil case, colour pencils, water bottle.

I can’t remember what parents need to bring, but cash is definitely one of them (if your child is taking school bus), have your child’s pick-up / drop-off address ready on hand (especially if your child is in student care). The school will send out information to you round about early Nov with details of the orientation agenda and advise what are the things you need to bring.

Thanks alot to Tweety17 & Bluebell. Somehow I did not turn on the \"watch replies\" for this topic :salute:


Can I ask whether there are exams for Primary 1 students in NCPS? I heard from my friends that some of the schools do not need their P1 & P2 students to take exams?

Thanks alot for the advise again.

NCPS still has exams for P1 and P2, but only the SAs, ie. May and Oct. No CAs.

Hi Everyone, I am totally new here. Came across this website at Yahoo! Search.


My boy will be entering P1 in 2010. I knew he is going to be in PM session. Any idea what’s schooling hours like? Sorry to have sounded stupid to post such question here since I can just call the school, but all of you here (parents) are so helpful and nice … ^v^

Hi, my daughter also get a seat after balloting. I also like to know what to look for during the P1 orientation. My daughter currently learning 3G abacus, i will enrol her into the Abacus class in NCP.

Welcome onboard Irene ^v^


I am also ‘excited’ in a way on the orientation. Can’t imagine you must have been on your toes during the balloting.

As seen from the older posts, seems like we should be receiving some instructions from the school before the actual orientation date (um …)

Should you received any letter or whatever from them, could you leave a post here too?

You know, last week I got a call from them as they received a bounced mail on their letter to me. It was a bursary letter sent to all parents and you guess what? They handwritten my address wrongly thus the letter did not reach me. They called to apologise and also at the same time asked me on my response as it was too late for them to post the letter again. I told them to be careful as it may be important document to us and verified that they have my records correctly. So you see, human-error (phew!)

Hi, I’m also looking for a good student care centre for my kid. I’m staying at Anchorvale Road. Anyone can recommend?


My plan is to place him with his current CCC if they can still accomodate him. But they can only reply me in Oct 09. Heard that the charges are expensive also, about $300. But I will be more at ease if the current CCC can keep him. But meantime, think I shld look for backup plan too.

Thanks!!
