Hi Luvmom,


When u mention there is little interaction btw the Teachers Children & Parents…I wonder is there a Teachers and Parents meet up session at all at the end of each term? My eldest boy Kindergarten provides it and it is really good as we are able to access his performance and recognises his shortcomings. Btw, the reason I’m not putting my 2nd boy in the same school is becoz we had since shifted.

Also, you mentioned that your boy is with Arise Kindergarten…are there lesser homework there since you mention that the pressure academically in Glory is higher?

In fact, I’m considering between Marmount and Glory. Arise came into the picture,since you mention it:) You may wonder the distance in all…hahaaaaaa I’m actually prepared to put my boy on a sc hool bus, as long as he can get into a good school.

Thanks for you comments and advise…

Hi,

My son is born in Year 2009 and I’m considering of enrolling him for N1 at Glory Kindergarten next year. I heard that it’s quite a popular school around Bukit Timah. I called up the school and realize that it’s circriculum is 4hrs vs the usual 3 hrs in other kindergartens. Also other then the school fees, there’s a conponent that consist of insurance, materials, speech n drama etc that adds up to $390, that’s a compulsory payment to be paid each term. Which means inclusive of school fees, I’m looking at $1200 each term if I’m going to put my son there next year, from N1 all the way to K 2. Any advise or feed backs from mothers? Is it worthit? Thanks!

Hi , yes... There's a typo error:) in my eyes, no one child is better than the other. They each have their strength n weakness... I meant to type One :oops:

Anyway, I'm taking my chances with HPPS. Seems competition lesser according to the balloting charts :celebrate:

hi, I'm a mother of 2 boys. My elest is 5yrs and the other 2 yrs. Thus it's impt that I try to enrol my eldest to a good Pri sch and his bro will follow suit. My choice now lies btw buying or renting a place in Bukit Timah. I narrowed my search to these 2 schools...can anyone advise which son is better? I know PHPS is a SAP sch...but HPPS is also popular?

Both schools are equally popular.
Pei Hwa is a SAP school - Higher Chinese and English are 1st languages.
Do bear in mind there is balloting for those staying within 1km for these 2 schools.

Hi Janet

Thanks! Both schools do need to ballot even if I stay within 1km of their premises. Thus I have to make a choice... Sad to say, I can only choose one over the other... Any advise which one is better? Teachers, environment, etc? Thks!
