From the open house I attended last month, Mrs Dhillon is really a friendly and approachable principal. I can also tell that she understands n cares for the children. It will be such a blessing to have such a nice principal around isn't it! Just wondering which primary school was she previously from? N how about the teachers in anchor green? The school is a more well rounded one instead of academically driven right?[/quote]Ya I find that the school dun just focus on academic results but also on their social development etc, which is gd for our kids.eileen1102:

Hi WCW,
Where u get this info?
If its true, its really a gd news coz Mrs Dhillon is a very nice Principal.
The children in AGPS are also polite & well mannered.
AGPS also run campaigns like recycling, green ambassador, clean teeth which makes the kids excited & keen to take part. -
As I heard from the principal that AGPS will undergo upgrading in another 2 years’ time, I wonder how the environment will affect the students during this period of time.

Can anyone here tell me what is expected during the school orientation? Do I have to buy the books and uniform on that day or do they actually have other dates that I can buy? Will the children be asked to do any "test" on that day as well? Cos I heard there are some schools doing it.

Before the Orientation, you would receive a set of leaflets by mail stating what to bring & take note on the day of orientation.
There's 4 color codes (Red/Blue/Green/Yellow) for the PE attire, depends on which color code your child is posted to.
During orientation, the kids will be lead by their form teacher to a classroom for some activities while the parents will be in the school hall having some briefing by the Principal etc.
No test required for the kids during the orientation.
You can buy the books & uniform on the day of orientation or on other dates as stated in the leaflet given to you.
The books & stationeries are supplied by http://www.pacificbookstores.com/
You can purchase some of the items from Popular or other bookstores due to price difference.
Hope the above info is useful to you.

I heard from my friend that she was previously a principal from a top girls school then she was transferred to my friend's daughter school in Pasir Ris. A normal neighbourhood school, then under her guidance, that school scored quite well in the PSLE.
Don't ask me which school as i have forgotten liao as he told me few years ago when my girl was in Primary 1. Now my girl is Primary 5 liao. -

Can somebody please give me a feedback on 'Life Community Service' student care which is located in Blk 306C. Does anybody's kids go to this student care? I am thinking of enrolling my child there and would appreciate an urgent feedback. Thanks.
Hi, I have no children sent to that student care but my mum stays in that block and before I moved out, I stayed there too. My opinion is, it is quite noisy most of the times. And sometimes when I walked past, the older students mixed with the younger students were creating a ruckus, nuisance basically (it caters to 7-12 years old if I'm not wrong). So all these while I do not have a good impression. -
Overall on AGPS, :salute: Time flies! I remember I was like the mummies here who enrolled their children into AGPS, but at that time 3 years ago, (see the first 2 pages of this thread), there wasn't much information about this school.
However, I commented on my first impression of the school during orientation then, and I still maintain my compliments now It's really a \"healthy\" school I would describe. Healthy in a sense that my girl (now P3) does not feel pressure in learning. Everyday she would come home and describes what she has done in school and occasionally relates the events during the assembly with enthusiasm. The school also implemented healthy food sets sold in the canteen for the students. My daughter learns things in a fun and interactive way, even the teachers and principal play down to be their levels during events such as sports day, children day etc. I actually agree to their teaching methods so I have no complaints with that. Unless you are those very very strict ones and think that schools should be a solemn place to learn things.
That say, it doesn't mean they are not strict. They just convey the methods to the students in a light-hearted manner. If you don't pass up homework or misbehave, there will be consequences too! -
Hi parents!! Anyone going for the 2014 P1 briefing on 22 May 2013?
