Hi all

Congratulations to all parents who managed to get into their schs of choice and good luck for those who are still in the \"battle\".

We are fortunate to be able to get into Nanyang Pri Sch and would like to hear anyone who had.have experiences with the sch in terms of their sch cultures. discipline & academics.

Is it true that children at NYPS do not have enjoy themselves at the sch?

Dear darthsl


Firstly, congratulations on your successful enrollment into one of SG’s popular schools. But frankly, why are you concern with this. I’m sure that you have evaluate the school well enough before deciding to enroll with them. Even if the answer to your question is YES, are you comtemplating to withdraw your child.

Sorry but JMHO.

Regards

Hi raynreg


Thanks for your HO and it is true that we have evaluated the sch before making our decision.

Now that we have successfully enrolled, we would like to have more views on how to better manage and ensure that our child has fond memories of the sch when he graduated.

I think the stress usually come from the parents.


If there is pressure to excel in class and the kid feels inadequate, then naturally they won’t be enjoying themselves. More important to instill the right attiture towards learning.

My primary one child is in NYPS. So far he loves going to school.

Hi, my girl has gotten into Pei Hwa although my 1st choice was MGS as i always wanted her to go to a girls' school. Unfortunately we have to ballot for MGS and not even 50% chance, so decided not to take the risk.

Is there anyone whose kids are in Pei Hwa now or anyone knows much about this school? Is there any affiliated secondary school?

Thank you.

Hi skmummy


You might want to move your question to "Schools In Jurong East" to alert all readers who have kids attending JP to reply. For now, the topic is Schools in Bukit Timah. My kid is in JP. I will reply you in the other thread if you are still interested.

I have re-post under Jurong East Scools.

Hope to hear from you soon.

hi i just came across this web site frm singaporemotherhood.


i ve posted a question there...

i ve a 5yr old girl & a 2yr old boy... we re staying in bedok, my inlaws & parents are all in the west. we are very open to sell the hse and move to bt timah for pri sch if possible.

i ve been thinking long and hard.

i look at my girl, she loves dancing, her ambition is to be a ballet teacher next time. faint...

i can imagine how stressed she will be if she is in nyps..

does anyone know any other sch will suit her better?

i day dream that if she is into scgs, i may ve to put son in acs junior if i am still staying in bt timah area by 2012.

it's all cos of the affiliation to the sec sch.

but what abt the creative part... does anybody know any sch let the girls thrive in this area?

2yr old son just loves car, mcqueen...:( wat sch will be suitable?

appreciate yr kind advice. tx again!

If you are looking at developing your gals’s interest in dance, you may like to consider Singapore Chinese Girls Primary School or Haig Girls School.These 2 girls schools are big on the arts/dance but Haig Girls school has no affiliation to any secondary school.
