"I’m go to this school for MTL Urdu every Saturday with other peoples who also take the Urdu but different levels. There toilets are DISGUSTING and also really dirty and when we are trying to do work there noise is so loud it distracts us and the water cooler is not cold at all like why? but the wraps are SOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOD that’s why I gave this 3 stars or I would have given one if not for the wraps"

"Had to be honest, after 2 sons(2nd one grad in 2021), back then i felt that they were shortchanged of their proper physical development (tbh really felt the school owe it to my sons). Outdoor Education was almost non existence, their P5 camp was not a proper outdoor camp or OE skills was not even taught according to the curriculum. In one or two years of their primary school life, PE lessons was not conducted according to the PE syllabus bcos they only played basketball the whole year round. Feedback was given when the first son graduated but still no change in the PE approach for my 2nd son. Unfortunate experience. Not going to even start on the point yet, my first son was ostracise by his senior peers in basketball CCA, bcos he is not of the usual race to play the sport (a different topic for another day/review). Not sending my 3rd son to TKPS for sure next year."
