hi


Just to share, we used to stay in CCK and enrolled in Pei Chun as my DH was an old boy and he felt a brand name school is best. Our 2 neighbours with kids the same age too enrolled in various brand name schools becos of this belief. ....

......My conclusion is that it is not the school that matters, it is what you expect from your child and how much you want to undertake to assist your child make the grades you think is best.

Sorry for the long story. Hope it helps.

Yes it is very helpful indeed. :thankyou:

[quote=\"lavmum\"]Hi Parents,


May I check if there will be alot after school activities for your children in Pei Chun?

I am keen to register my girl as my DH is old sch boy but we are staying in Sengkang. Transport is a big problem for us. We will appreciate any kind reply for the queries i have.
1. Does sch bus cater for after sch activities? Meaning if my girl need to stay till 4 or 5 pm. will there be sch bus?
2. When will after sch activities start? P3 onwards?

Thank you very much!

Hi
I heard from another mummy that she pays for a small school van service to ferry her P3 kid back (one-way) after her CCA ard 3-4pm twice/thrice a week... the fee is of course higher as this is an \"extra service\". Then again, she stays q near the school.. not sure if other sch van operators drive to further locations.

Hi both,

Thank you very much! I am very worried about the transport should i decide to enrol Pei Chun. Reli appreciate your reply.

Btw, how your kids coping in the school? Is it stressful?

Regards[/quote]Hi,

My girl is in P2 this year. I would say school homework is generally not stressful... There are Modular Assessments every quarter but that's fine as the kids are tested in a few topics at any one time. As the kids are not required to join any CCA in their 1st 2 years, they are able to really settle down and enjoy school until they are more mature in P3 to learn how to cope...which is also a good idea for me. Of course, the initial stage during P1 the kids will need some help to adapt to the new hours and new environment... it's transitional so there's nothing much to worry about.

Hi,


Anyone staying along balestier road? Heard the traffic jam is bad in the morning and evening peak hours… What time is the school bus pickup for afternoon session and what time does the bus reach the area in the evening after school? Any way to arrange for bus transport for CCA days or days when the child needs to be in school early or stay back after class?

Any updates on the single session timing or is it still 2016 as we know _previously?

Many thanks…

Hi Parents


I would like to register my son for next year Pri 1. However, it seems like there is no transport from the school to Bukit Panjang area.

It there any parents who is staying at this area and what is the mode of transport for your kid to school daily?

Thank you for your advice.
