"my P1 year was alright, everything was great except getting separated from kindergarten friends. my worse year was P6, I got 2 very strict teachers, one would always scold the class, one time we went to the sports hall and she scolded us for "not following instructions", and my other teacher can be nice sometimes but scolds really badly"

"I know its a school, but still, the toilets are kinda dirty. Its still decent to stay in because of the air that flows in once in a while but would not recommend to stay inside for a long time. But there are some perks, such as hearing the gossip while in the cubicle, its like free entertainment. 3/5, won't really recommend as Tiong bahru mall's bathroom is better."

"Hi! I'm a P6 graduate of 2022 and I think that the school has many good teachers and office staff they treat everyone in the school with care.even in the holding school, opposite Queensway was also very good as they would all be there for you the canteen stall vendors are all caring and they all treat the food with extra care and I really recommend this school as it is the best of all time and I really enjoyed the days there even my friends are good influence we all treat each other with respect and there were never racism in the school. I really enjoyed it there this is the BEST SCHOOL."

"Hello!I'm a p6 graduate and I'm going to post my honest review. Some teachers at the school are very mean!like I had this 1 teacher who body shamed a few of my classmates and she just said "it's a joke you know that right?" And laughed it off my classmate also just laughed it off but I could sense that she didn't like it at all.she did it more than 1 time and she kept implying it was a joke!! There was also many times were I forgot to hand in my homework, she scolded me infront of the whole class! I was so traumatised by it until the other time I forgot my homework again I was so scared and so I ran back home to get it! my primary 1-4 teahcers were not as bad as her but they were still kinda mean to me and would often criticise me when I do a tiny mistake. They made me so insecure that now I'm scared of doing a mistake. I do hope that the people that my teacher critiqued are ok now and recoved from that horrible incident. I will not recommend this school for ur children"

"Hello I'm a Primary 6 graduate from 2022. My first 2 years in Kellock wasn't that terrible except that I got split up with my kindergarden friends who were in the same school because of some random bully. However, this P6 year was the worst, I got this teacher who would not stop being rude to the students and blaming everything that went wrong on the students. For example, a project that was supposed to be fun, majority of the class got scolded and one of my friends almost cried because of the teacher and my other friend got compared to her own sister that was in the teachers past class. She made me feel insecure and belittled. I once broke a chair which was already almost broken and the teacher told me that I needed to lose weight in front of the whole class, that day, I felt like crying so much. The incident is only one out of many. I have felt so embarrassed and insecure in that class, that I could not be happier that I will never see her again."
