I thought most K2 is teaching Hanyu Pinyin in preparation for primary 1?

Hi everyone,


My DS1 is in ATS P2. We have never joined any of the organised classes by the school so I can't comment much about the standard of delivery.

I personally like ATS for its strong \"chinese-y\" environment and culture. I believe most of the schools under the Hokkien Huay Kuan Association are like that.

Counting down to CA2 now...:lol:

Hi, I’m a desperate & dishearted parent who failed in balloting for Pri 1 registration (2010) Phrase 2C at Ai Tong Primary School.

Does it help to submit the "Waiting List Form"?
Is there anything else I can do for my child?
Any good advices from all the experts?

There is at least some chance you might be able to get your kid in if you are on the waiting list, vs no chance at all if you are not.

Help your child do well in P1 and P2. At that point of time, with a good academic record, you should have leverage when you re-approach the school again if you are still interested.

Hubby and I are targeting ATS for our kids (2005 and 2007). Plans are on track as hubby has joined the Huay Kwan and we stay <1km.


We are an English speaking family and more than my fear of my kids not meeting the Chinese standard, I’m concerned about whether they will fit in with a Chinese School culture. Sorry for any generalisations but I hv the impression that a Ch school focuses more on academic achievements rather than looking at the child as a whole. I am from an IJ school so a Ch sch is like worlds apart. Am I wrong in my perception? Appreciate comments and views about ATS’ culture
