Guangyang Primary

[NYmummy]

Hi New2SgEdu


my child is there! And for the past 2 years, i find the school is really partnering her parents in education. They will constantly update us about our kids progress and provide suggestions how to help our kids. In terms of curriculum, i think across the board is the same, since MOE will approve the syllabus and what schools should teach, base on age appropriate. As for surrounding, the school is there in their existing building for about 2 years? As such, many facilities are still pretty new. We had a tour of the building before, they have many state of the art facilities to carry out the programmes. And my kid looks forward to attending school every day!

And i know that there was a year, the kids were invited to the Istana to perform in front of our president, PM and ministers. If the kids there are really so ‘ah beng’ i guess, they also wont be invited to such a session.

As a parent, i think the school is doing her best to teach and educate the children. However, we as parents also have to play our part, to help teach our kids. After all, this is a school, 1 teacher to 30 kids, also not quite easy to manage.

Hi New2SgEdu, saw your post, couldn't resist to share what I know about Guangyang Primary School.


I have a close friend and her 2 children went to Guangyang Primary. The older two boys graduated and they did well for PSLE! Teachers I heard, are very caring and they will go a very long way to motivate the children especially during stressful PSLE. Anyway, my friend has trusted her youngest daughter to Guangyang Primary this year. Now she is in Primary One. The little girl is enjoying school.

Have you checked out the school website? I like it, they have interesting programme for the children. You could tell the children are genuinely happy.

My friend says that Guangyang Primary is going to have an Open House next week or so. Call them to find out? It will be good, right?

Take care!

Dear NYmummy and kkan99,


Thanks for your replies which really gave me a good peace of mind.

l discussed with my wife and guess what, we are going to put our son there also for P1.

Will watch out for the school open day and probably we might see you there.

Warm regards.

Hi,


I called for the Open Day and was told that I should leave the phone number. Someone will call me to invite once school has a specific Open Day. I can’t wait to view the school as it’s my number 1 choice for my dd for year 2014. So far, the vacancy after Phase 2A1 still very high. I hope for the best for Phase 3 - please no ballot.

Hi,


I called today too. I was told it would be held on 25th July, next Thursday, at 1030am. I was also asked to leave my name and contact number down. Was told to register at the school office on that day too.

I will be going for the talk at Bishan cc this Saturday too.

Dear parents, if you currently have kids studying in Guang Yang, please advise me your views on he school? I,m in a dilemma for my gal's phase 2CS registration after my failed registration in Ai Tong? Many thanks. :oops:

My DS is in GYPS P1 this year as I was in a similar situation like you where we failed to obtain a place in ATPS. Fortunately my DS is enjoying his school very much, thanks to the good teachers, principal and vice principal. After 8 months in GYPS, I must say it might be a blessing in disguise that we did not get a place on ATPS.

Thanks Mame. Cheers. Hope I didn’t make the wrong choice either.
