Wow! Poohbear! Your son did great! Congratulations! Which school is he in now? Yeah, I heard that for the top 2 classes, the teachers really 'chiong\" one. That's why I'm really hoping that DD gets into top 2 classes


Was it difficult to get into the Challenge class? If all the students get 25X then really the standard is good! I heard the new principal is very good :nunchuk: too compared to the ex-retiring principal cos already quite \"boh chap\" :siam:

P3 will be time where they band the kids. To get into challenging, say p5 challenging, it will be based on P4 results. P5 and p6, they will be in same class.

Just for info, they band base on English, one time in P3 base on p2 results and another time in P5 based on P4 results.....I only know when my son in
P5 after he drop class

My 2 kids @ Admiralty now, DS in P6 & DD in P2. They enjoy their school life there . Compare to other year, P6 got a bit more home work but manageable, teacher are caring, anything u ask teacher response r quite fast. School teaching n exam papers has some standard. For CCA, may not have so many but there are enough CCA that kids can participate. I think start from P3, they have science project competition, Math, etc...I only know when ds bring back his prizes. School also support other sport player, although not official school CCA such as water polo. There is admiralty water polo boy team and play under school name and win a few prize. The team train under club. Ds also play soccer in school. I think 3 player from his soccer team selected for JCOE (Junior centre of excellence) include my ds. One of my bad exp was school uniform vendor, no uniform to attend school :siao: when my DD starting P1 :(. .... My ds is still enjoy playing although PSLE is coming...hope he can make it :xedfingers: .......Those parent look for bal study/play... can consider admiralty..... Hope these info are useful.

Thanks for the info! :thankyou:


We will register our DS1 under phase 2B in Admiralty on 19/20 July which is just 11 days away. The sharing you provided is definitely useful and helps parents like us to know more about the school that we are going to put our children in.

Hope my DS1 can get in this school......

Hi Kittymum, heard from my ex colleague whose son is in Greenwood that they have very tough papers. She bought papers from other top school to let her son try and he said it so simple! But this Greenwood seems to be quite hot (maybe due to the neighbourhood population - many families with many children)

Hello ！


My son is in P5 Admiralty Primary School.
Does any parent know how many students scoring >250 in 2012 PSLE in ADPS ?

:thankyou:

[Pooh Bear]

2012 PSLE? Not out yet!

When I was choosing primary school 7-8 years ago, I heard Woodgrove had lots of difficult homework. I chose Admiralty since it had more relaxed homework scheme (teachers are set max homework hours/week). I am glad that I did that. I still believe in balance work/play. We need to cultivate creativity in our kids.
