What's Good

5 notable strengths based on official data

Well-Established

Founded 1888, 138 years of experience

Over 138 years means a mature teaching system refined over decades. Staff turnover is typically lower, and the school's reputation is well-documented — making it easier for parents to find reliable reviews.

Free Scheme

Government Free Kindergarten Scheme

Half-day tuition is fully government-subsidized. The school must meet EDB quality standards and undergo regular reviews. Note that miscellaneous fees (uniform, snacks, textbooks) still apply.

Rich Facilities

9 facilities (Outdoor Playground, Indoor Playground, Theatre 、Swimming Pool、Library、Discovery Zone、 Outdoor Playground、 Basketball Court 、Dance Hall)

Passed Quality Review

Passed EDB Quality Review

The EDB conducted an on-site assessment and endorsed the school's teaching quality — covering curriculum design, teaching practices, and school culture. This is an official stamp of quality but does not imply ranking.

Strong Home-School Partnership

Active parent engagement programs

Regular parent activities keep you informed about your child's progress and the school's approach. These schools tend to be more responsive to parent feedback and faster at addressing concerns.

Things to Consider

Not negatives — just things worth knowing before you decide

No PN class (earliest entry at K1)

Earliest admission at K1 (around age 2 years 8 months). If you want earlier socialization, you'll need a separate playgroup. Some believe starting at 3 allows more quality family time.
