Are the teachers in archers student care patient as my boy is hyperactive? From yangzheng need to take school bus to the student care right?

Hi, does anyone of a good student care in Serangoon, preferably near yangzheng? Thanks

hi I’ve since withdrawn my child from the Radiance Student Care Centre. They let the children witness a guardian slapping a boy left right on the cheek non-stop and this is not the first time that happens. Passersby also witness this happening to the same boy at the entrance around 6 pm sometimes. When I checked with the supervisor she said the mum allowed the uncle to discipline in that way. That’s child abuse and they just close one eye.

thanks for the info, lowmama. I agree with you on the past culture of the school. Just hope the new principal will do some restructuring.

Hi I realise the new principal is rather young and I heard she is quite firm about things. Maybe as kiasu parents we should be more proactive like writing to her and ask her what are her plans for the school. Montfort used to be a rather good school but the standard (especially in the academic areas) has not improved over the years.

Hi parents,


Just to share something here. I checked the internet last night and found out that Zhonghua has a new principal this year Mr BUcktha Seela who was formerly principal for Tanjong Katong Pr for 7 years (there was an appeal fr the parents there to extend his appt) so I am sure he must be a good principal and judging by his track record there.

I went down to check on the school today and also hv a chat with him and was very impressed. He is revamping the school both in the areas of sports and academics. His programme not only tailor to the bright but also weaker students. He is the on the ball type of principal as he will sit through the class once a week to review the teachers and he works very closely with the parents. Quite confident the school will grow under his care in a year or two.

So don't judge a school by their popularity. It's good to talk to the principals and get to know them and their approach.

Hi Chief

Can u advise which school is better? St Gabriel's or Zhonghua? From its website it seems that Zhonghua's top PSLE students every year but why is it not so popular? :?
