[quote=\"FQW\"]Would like to hear from the P1 parents how their kids are coping in the sch? P1 work is manageable rite? I recalled my was loving P1 ... he's still loving P2 as he gets more confident of himself and less prone to bullies.


Anybody's kid joined CCA's, took up leadership roles or had an adventure to share?

Hi FQW,

Your DS got bullied in P1?? :scared:

Why so surprised? Boys will be boys. There'll always be taunting, name-calling amongst boys [think my son is no angel in this aspect too]. But as he matures, he learns in his own ways, how to handle things better.

Guess it's part of the growing process. It all boils down to confidence, how quickly one can side-step all these social issues within a sch.[/quote]Oh cos when the word Bullied is mentioned i thought its something more serious.. sorry cos i have not experienced something like this. More to come for me..thks for sharing.

Hi All,


Just wanted to say a big congrats to all parents who got their child in. My DD is not registering this year, yet reading all the earlier posts i can sense the pressure and stress of primary registration! All the best to all!

Is PH strict with the selection of PV? When should i start applying for my DD who was born in 2008? Can both set of parents apply separately or its still considered 1 PV?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi Maverick, PH has cut down on the number of PVs, and is therefore more stringent on selection. Either 1 parent will suffice, with contributions of 40 hours, or if both parents are PVs, 20 hours each. Some schools require PV to register 1-3 years in advance. PH is 1 yr in advance.

Thanks for the information. Any advice on how to better chances of being selected as a PV? Looking at the number of spaces this year it does look very competitive.

Had a chat with a friend whose DD is in another SAP sch & realized PH's P1 HCL standard is much higher! For eg, term 2 gotta recite 春晓 唐诗 whereas the other sch HCL poetry is about little rabbits & is much simpler.

I'm surprised to hear this. This yr PH removed moxie for P2 so I thought they lowered the standard oredi.

Also realized that a few other schools do not have Maths spelling/mental sums. Is PH unique in introducing this?
