I am a bit worry about my kid's English learning! As I learnt from the teacher last Fri that APS is focuing on training pupils creative thinking rather than drilling the grammatical skills. They believe that all pupils can handle grammar with confidence while in P.4 or above. I must say that this teaching philosophy is great, but I think grammar learning is also playing important role in English learning.
As I know that your little princess is in P.4, can you share your experience with me?

I think u have worry on English teaching in APS. As What ChiChiPaPa mentioned, I alsN believe APS students are not weak in English.
My daughter just took Cambridge Flyer on Saturday. I had a look at the requirement for Flyer which like ChiChiPaPa provided the details earlier. Basically, APS covered almost all during P3. My daughter did not do much preparation for the test but she said it was not difficult at all. Well, I can't be sure how she does. Only that showed she has confidence on it. She is not unfamiliar with the materials.
APS does not drill grammar but they do cover grammar items through teaching readers. Students were taught about grammar in different ways. And they need to know how to apply the grammar well. So don't underestimated them @. @ and don't worry. :)

Hi, Kidslover,
Nice to chat with u again. For the question that u asked, I cannot recall that I saw my daughters' performace that year. My daughter was in the team in P2. Last year I did not let her in and she is not invited this year.
If u see notice in the orange book, I am sure u should go. Even if you cannot find any notice but your son mentioned that, u should go too. If they do have rehersal at hall, parents are welcome to see. Check with your son again.
