"Gradutated from huamin in 2024(6 courage), I'm now a sec one in Ahmad Ibrahim secondary school. I have to say the facilities in huamin are great there's a indoor-sports hall, gym,admin centre and many other facillities, i loved this school even more was because sometimes during lessons time,we could use sometimes laptop, or i pads.And i'm very grateful for this experience as it really opened up my mind.i actually wanted to go back to school to collect my PSLE results but i was away on a trip and didnt get to say thank u to many of the teachers but hopefully this year's teachers day i will go back and see and say thank u to the teachers i didnt get to say thank u to. i would like to espress my thanks and gratitude to these teachers espically,(Mrs Siva,Mr David Lim,Ms chelsea,Mrs Yeo,Mr Chia,Mr Chang,Mrs Yong,Ms Eunice Chan,Miss Tan Hui Jun,Ms Jutina Nio,Ms Ong Pei Ling, Miss Wong,Mdm Hidayah(my floorball teacher) and many others.)I will forever remember my experience and the knowledge gained from the six years i spent in huamin.(good luck to the future of huamin primary school and to huamin's floorball school team.)"

"want your child to date, vape and bully at just PRIMARY 5? please come to this school. I relocated and changed schools in 2024 and I have so many things to say about the difference in education between both of the schools. huamin is missing tons of essential materials for students such as heuristics, further explanations, etc. not only is the education poor, but the teachers seem to not care about their job. some people might say that their nieces/nephews or friend's children might be doing well in school and that's totally understandable as maybe some students can somehow manage their education in such a poor school. I had one friend who consistently scored very well at when they were Primary 4. but after in primary 5, they've changed completely. surrounded by bullies who vaped and dated, she must have learnt from them and started failing school and started dating. it's such a shame to see such potential go to waste because of the teachers not nothing their students' behaviour. not to mention, the school gives zero freedom. during recess, going to class and even dismissal, a teacher has to follow the class no matter how old they are. the teachers are protective at useless areas. why pay attention to students enjoying their recess when you can check up on students with possible issues at home which is very visible from their body language? the teachers also have zero logic. from what I remember, a teacher once scolded me and my friends for talking during RECESS. I need not say more. in conclusion, send your child to this school if you want them to have a messed up future ahead of them."

"Students are a public nuisance and buy these weird popping things from the mama shop that are really noisy, every-time I go to the void deck there’s just trash everywhere, the kids also use vulgarities a lot and I have to take an entirely different route home just so I can hear my own thoughts"
