RE: Maris Stella High
For all the newbie, my son will be P3 next year. Till now I’m very happy with MSHSP, my son looks forward to going to school everyday. For P1 & P2 their form teacher will remain the same, I truly thank God for that. As my son’s form teacher is one that will encourage and do things out of the box just to get them all interested in Chinese! I was extremely worried at first as my son was really bad in mandarin when he was in K2 but now surprisingly his Chinese got band 1 and is his best subject, including his classmates all improved tremendously! Hopefully for next year he will get another great teacher! Those in P1 next year will benefit as i heard that she will be teaching one of the class in P1 next year again.
As for someone asking abt TLC at bartley Christian church, that Studentcare i will definitely Not recommend at all, as my son used to be there in p1 for 6mths luckily we redrew! Everyday he came back whole uniform black, the centre is very smelly as well, the worst of all is homework all not done properly and the teachers don’t really care. My son’s classmate even got pinch in his ear until swollen, that place only care abt $…but never really help us working parents. Really bad experience with them. -

I’m very surprised that they are doing that! As my elder son is from a SAP school they don’t even screen the children. I believe for primary 1 & 2 they should just mix around. They can do that after P2. If the teacher is a capable and encouraging teacher the children will change. Foundation is the key. My son is an example, he was not so good in his kindergarten. Now with an encouraging and good teacher for p1&2, she had transformed my son and his other classmates with good results. I’m just afraid like some other school, they give the best teacher to the best class! Than the not so good class they just give a normal average teacher?! Teacher is very very important, especially for P1 and 2. Very worried! !

RE: CHIJ Our Lady of Good Counsel
Went there yesterday, I was just wondering as the girls have not been allocated to their respective classes and they have this teacher and child interaction time? Are they screening them so as to allocated the good ones in the same class and the not so good in a class?? A bit worried for my DD!

There’s one student care at lorong chuan area in bethesda Christian church. My son is from Marist, he is in there.
The pricing is very reasonable, the place is clean as well. My son used to go to Batley Christian Church studentcare. The fee is expensive plus there are a few teachers there are irresponsible. My son was p1 last year learn a lot of nonsense from there and handwriting was from bad to worst. Everyday after he come back from Bartley Christian Church student care his whole uniform black! As you know Marist uniform is full white. 6mths later I found bsc from a parent also from kiasu parent’s forum, it was so much better. Can shower also can nap in the afternoon. My son told me there are a few chij girls there as well. My girl will be there next year too. -

Thank you for sharing bluebelt, as I am thinking of OLGC or OLN. As I just heard from a parent that OLN just change a very good principal. And in the CHIJ forum mostly are talking abt OLN, OLGC seems very low profile. Are they very pro-catholic education? Becoz I'm looking at that will be very important in catholic school. I also heard from some parents some catholic school not so.3LCYMUM:
Hi, can anyone tell me abt OLGC, Is the school academic driven? Or is the school more relax?
I would say that the balance is about right although I don't have a comparison as my boys haven't entered primary school yet.
The quantity of homework in lower primary is very manageable and there are no exams in P1. For P2 they still have around 50% of their final marks coming from holistic assessment throughout the year - spelling tests, show & tell, math activities etc. For my daughter she was encouraged to set targets for her P2 exams and the teacher persuaded her to go for a higher target than she initially wanted so I wouldn't say that they allow them to take it easy. They do run remedial classes for those who need it - even for those who are doing well but just need an extra push to improve their marks.
They have a strong emphasis on character building and it seems like they are trying to build up their strength in performing arts on the CCA front. They already have choir, Chinese, Malay & Indian dance and have just introduced drama. -
