Hi, I am a newbie in this forum. I had my child registered for next year P1. I heard that the parent support group at HPPS is very good and I wish someone can tell me more about it.

My colleague is in the parent support group. He frequently tells me about how he argue with the principal, LOL..

HI hi,


My son already graduated from HPPS last year. My daughter is in P5 this year.

The PSG in HPPS is quite active and many of the ECCA (enrichment CCAs) are organized and supported by parents volunteers.

P1s are pretty relaxed, so don’t worry too much. Let the kids enjoy school.

Hi Lizawa, just wondering in your school if the overall percentage in the report book is calculated based on 4 or 5 (include HCL) subjects ?

It's based on 4 subjects only. HCL only has a grade, but does not count into the total aggregate. same in PSLE.

Hi there all.....


Our little princess will also be attending HP next year. It was a tough choice between HP and Fairfield but we thought the ECAs are better at HP and dont mind the slightly longer distance to get there. The only disadvantage is that HP is still operating PM sessions for P1&2, that might be a problem, I wonder how to manage the AM so that DD doesnt spend her time in front of the TV. :roll:

Our daughter's friend is currently at HP P1 and it seems that there isnt much homework....well, we'll see. We just hope we have done enough to help DD settle down into P1 comfortably...another 4 more months.

Hi, lizawa, what are the 4 subjects? english, chinese. maths n science? does it mean that student who is taking HCL needs to sit for 2 tests ie normal chinese test n HCL test? thanks :?:

Hi sesame01,

Correct on the 4 subjects.

Yes, a student taking HCL needs to sit for 2 papers in all the tests and exams. The format for both papers are different. However, they only need to use 1 textbook, the HCL book.

HCL has no oral, so just need to do 1 oral exam.

Hope this helps.

My son is in HPPS studying Pri 2. He enjoys himself in school and has make a lot of friends there. As for homework, i think it really depends on the teacher. However, I realised there are more boys than girls in HPPS, maybe there are just too many girls primary schools around the area.
