Hi,


I'm new here....

Signed up my kid for the taekwondo class last week.

He attended the first lesson this Wed and the instructor is strict. Haha...

Hi Astrogal,

For a taekwondo instructor, he should be strict right :nunchuk: rather than being sweeeetttt and gentle :please: ..... haha

Hi,


Im new to this forum. Edgefield is very near to where Im residing. My sister is a graduate of this school, and my mum is a non-acdemic teacher in the school. I’ve watched this school grow. I have known some of the teachers there too.

Firstly, this school does not have exams for Primary 1 and 2, correct me if I am wrong. And yes, they nuture the kids all round. They are very into CCA.

If any parents would like to have tutition for your kids, you may let me know as my mum does tutition all levels and her chargers are reasonable. Its home tutition at her house just 5 mIns walk from the school, and she is going on either 1-1 or at most 1-2 students.

Hi, I’m new in KSP. Looking for advice here. Im thinking to register my son for P1 next year. I consider edgefield as they have after school care n heard their CCA is not bad. Can anyone share w me more on this sch? Appreciate…

I am new to this forum or any at all. My older son is already registered but on LOA as we are residing in Shanghai. He has never attended a day in Edgefield, so I have no idea what’s it like to study in Singapore. My younger son will register for P1 next year, so I’m wondering if I shoulld just let him go Edgefield or try other schools. We are staying 2 streets from the school, so it’s very convenient. Not that it matters now since we’re not in Singapore.


I’ve read some negative comments here but also some really good ones in the other forum (Registration). I guess every school, even the best, has it’s pros and cons. I’ve been in Beijing and Shanghai since 2006 and choosing a school is never easy. There’s no perrfect school for every child. As parents, we can only choose one that suits our child. Sorry to say this. I don’t believe that a child will definitely excel in the best schools. Of course, the chances are probably higher. So getting into the best schools is not my priority at the moment. However, I would still hope for my boys to get into an "okay" school where they can enjoy their childhood.

I was told that my boys could take entry tests at other schools when we return in the future. So, we are not so pressured to get into a good school now. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Anyway, I appreciate any feedback on Edgefield. So far, I’ve only made contact with the Admin when they process the LOA annually. I am very happy with their service.

Thank you very much !

from the record, PSLE achievers are lesser and lesser every year. The new principal focus more on Cha-cha dance instead of academic aspects. Under the previous principal, PSLE achievers are more. This is feedback from some of Parent’s Volunteers in this school.

Does anyone know of the results for last year PSLE?


My son will be doing the enrollment in a few days… hope he can get in to the school…

I was thinking of putting him in the school student care. Anyone has any comments and advice??

Hi…


My first choice was Mee Toh… Cos i would like my son to be in a buddhist school. But i was not in time to do PV. So, my hope for mee toh is gone…

As for Edgefield, it is very near my hse as i stay near to SPC area.
My neighbour’s daughter used to be in edgefield told me it is a good school. the result is better as compared to mee toh.

Edgefield has a wide range of CCA which i think is also good for my kid.

How about you?? what make you choose edgefield??
