Nanyang Primary

[Nespresso]

Dear parents, I would like to check if the school has lots of homework and is stressful for the kids? My girl is due for P1 next year.

[phtthp]

For p1 -

Nanyang teach Di Zi GUI. (Dzg)

Is dzg taught during the normal p1 Chinese lessons, or is it taught separately under moral character values development programme (ie. taught outside Chinese curriculum hours) ?

How does the teacher teach ?
Does she take the effort to explain the deep, profound meaning behind each and every verse in dzg, or just merely ask the p1 pupils to memorize dzg ?

China coaches are strict in training kids

Watch how china kids are trained in ag.

As they shed tears quietly when their palm & legs get injured due to prolonged, rigorous training -
their faces speak of perseverance, endurance, determination, hardwork (they carry weight lifting on their small shoulder, to train up muscle) :-

My husband went for the P1 Talk last Sat. Mrs Lee said 3 things that the K2 child needs to practise now.


1) sleep by 9pm
2) each meal completes within 20mins
3) know $$ counting

Is it possible to get through NYPS (in some style i.e. relaxed, happy and graduating to a top secondary school) without extra tuition?


I'd appreciate some honest feedback from parents of current NYPS pupils. If this has been discussed ad nauseum, feel free to tell me. :imdrowning:

Depends on the calibre of your child, I suppose.

Thanks for that.

It also depends on the quality of teaching in the school - NYPS is getting a reputation of merely being a Testing Centre, I wanted to hear if this is at all warranted, or more likely a sign of jealousy.

It's one thing to achieve high rankings in the academic league tables, but if behind that parents are shelling out $$$$ on extra tuition, it makes a mockery of the school's achievement. So it's about the parents too...
