When I did the parent volunteer last year helping them to send orientation kits to the P1 kids for this yr. I only see chinese names. Generally Pei Chun has a very strong culture and learning in Chinese. No Malays I've seen so far in the school premise. Indian maybe if the family decided to expose their child in Chinese culture. Also some Chinese nationals.
I saw in the bus list that there is bus to and from AMK. Not sure how long is the trip.. you would know on the admin day on 21 Nov.
Hope this helps

She need to stay back twice a week and most of the training conducted during PE period, if I remember correctly. My dd told me if the student's studies is not that good, the school will not put him/her in Sports class. Overall her class did not do badly in the exam, I don't remember her telling me anyone failing in her class. She misses her classmates very much after leaving the sch and still keep in contact with them. They will be having a gathering soon.

To add on- my husband's niece is also in sports class P6 this yr, playing volley ball. Her studies is never as good as my dd, but she still manage to get into the sec sch she wanted via DSA Sports.
One of her classmate whom was my dd's ex-classmate fr P1-2, is accepted by Dunman High. Another common classmate's basket ball player sister was accepted by NYGH a few yrs back.
My dd and these 2 ex-classmates are now having a good time holidaying in Japan. So, don't worry too much if the sch select your child to join the sports class, he might be able to get into his dream sch via DSA Sports.

Pcps is a SAP school, so be prepared for "chim chim" Chinese. The science also seems to get very tough in the upper primary school and even the good classes are not managing well with the CAs and SAs.

Hi,


I’ve intentions of sending my boy to Pei Chun. I was browsing through their school website and it seems like the school does not focus on sports or CCA at all.

For parents with kids in the school, is that true? Do you think your children enjoy studying there? I’m very worried that the school just focus a lot on academics and I’m not sure if it would be too stressful for my kid.
