Nan Hua Primary

[Tokidoki]

yappie, my kid is not in Nan Hua yet. He's only 4 yrs old now. :lol: I'm ex-student from Nan Hua, so plan to send him there in 2012. I'm juz starting to gather more info on transportation.


If your kid is independent enuff, i feel take MRT is the fastest way. I try and it takes abt 30 mins from Woodlands to Clementi station. Only problem is there's still some walking distance from MRT to Nan Hua.

Morning traffic on BKE should be quite bad, but i have nvr experience traveling that early yet. I only experience at ard 7am+ traveling to MOE, everyday it takes me 1 hr in the cab! If i can afford, i will try to shift nearer. But my friend suggest to me to try driving there on school day to get a feel of the time needed.

Good luck to you, hope this transportation problem is solved soon!

hi

read from NHPS’s website for P1 registration, there’s a Note under phase 2A2: Note: For Nan Hua Primary School, this phase will include pupils who graduated from Nan Hua Secondary in or before 1969.

does it mean that it’s only old students who were graduated before or in 1969 are eligible for this phase?

anyone know if there’s school bus to yew tee/cck from the school?

Experience GEP parents or teachers of NHPS kindly advise if it is OK to use Charlotte Web of different publisher? Must it be by "Pengiun"? Kindly advise how first day of school like for P4 GEP students in this school?

The school is starting the enrichment programme next week. It is conducted by Edu-Net. Does anyone has any experience with them? Are their programmes effective? So used to just "googling" everything but there is nothing on the net about them. Wonder how good are their programmes. Anyone has any comments?

If I am not wrong Edu Net classes are conducted on every Wednesday. I got to know the owner of Edu net when my child goes to Kinderland. Mrs Pauline Ong had grandchildren going to Kinderland back then. She was once the Principal of Henry Park. For the enrichment classes conducted at Nan Hua, Mrs Pauline Ong herself and some of her teachers (who are of similar age group like her) came to Nan Hua. I was actually shocked to see her personally at Nan Hua to teach… rather impressed. She does not need the money at all. She is doing it out of passion. My child does not attend the enrichment classes but I would think she knows what she is doing. Also she did publish a book or two some time back on writing or something like that. I would think the quality would be there. I am not related to her or have any interest in her organisation. Just a sharing. Hope that helps.

Hi there,

What is edu net? thanks.

Hi forgetful,


Edu-Net is name of an enrichment centre… I believe based in Bishan bomb shelter. They would conduct Creative Writing, Challenging Math & Comprehension/Cloze classes in Nan Hua on every Wednesday. Like I said it is owned by the ex principal of Henry Park Ms Pauline Ong and she has a number of teachers (like 4) who are also retirees like her who would come by Nan Hua to teach. My personal opinion is that she is doing it more out of passion and dedication to her ambition rather than for the money. But I have no idea how it is where the standard is concerned but I would think it is value for money.

Nan Hua usually sends out the circular on their courses at the beginning of each semester… check with General Office for Edu Net number and call them to enquire more.
