I do see non-chinese students in Hong Wen. I do not know about Bendemeer Primary. I chose Hong Wen because I want my kids to learn more about Chinese culture and values. My dd1 learned about di zi gui, wushu, erhu, Chinese calligraphy, etc. All these were within curriculum time.

If you are non-Chinese and considering Hong Wen, then you have to think about how to ensure your mother tongue is not neglected because Hong Wen does not have other MT besides Chinese. In addition, your child will have to be comfortable in speaking Mandarin, reading and writing Chinese.

Hong Wen do have non-Chinese teachers and during racial harmony wk, the students are exposed to other cultural activities. But most of the time, the emphasis is on Chinese culture and values.

As u rightly guessed, m non chinese. Earlier my daughter was in local kindergarten where she had Chinese as a subject but she didn’t picked up much. Though the school is very close to my place and is good in terms of academic I am very inclined to get her in the school. As long as there are some culutural values taught , m fine. But I guess there is no vacancy for P2 next year, so it ll get ruled out by itself. Any suggestion on Bendemeer primary?

If you are considering to transfer your child from another school, you can contact Hong Wen, 6294 3340, to check if there are vacancies in P2 and if not, to be placed on waiting list.


I have not done any research on Bendemeer Primary. Have to wait for other parents to share or you can post your question in the Bendemeer Primary School thread.
