hello mummies,


can i check, if its compulsory to take higher chinese in NH from P1?

yes, it is compulsory. i believe at P4, we can decide if we want to continue or drop it. others, pls correct me if i'm wrong.

Based on the child's results in P4, the school will recommend whether he or she continues with HCL in P5.

Hi


My boy is adapting well in school, the only setback is he is struggling for Mother Tongue. He was on leave of Absence (LOA).

Glad to know your boy is adapting well. I'm also pretty worried abt the Higher Chinese. Maybe you can get him some external help for chinese? At least help him catch up to P2 level.

Tokidoki, my boy is exempted from MT, he will learn the language but all his results from MT will not be taken into account all the way till \"A\" level.

Hi,


Need some feedback from parents of existing students. Now and then, I hear comments about Nan Hua being too academic driven and doesn’t provide a holistic learning environment. The school’s CCAs are also not strong. What do you parents think?

Also, I noted they have many new teachers on board this year. How are the teachers generally? Are they nice and caring? Do they teach or leave to parents to enrich their own kids?

Appreciate any sharing. Thank you

My boy is in pri2. Everything seemed good. English spelling every week. Chinese depends sometimes weekly or else will inform them one week in advance. Teachers are nice, they take time to understand each pupils. I am happy with the school. My only complain is that CCA starts at 3. But my son enjoys the time he spends after school.
