"My students are some from Mee Toh.
Every Monday, the monk will do chanting after singing National Anthem and the pledge. Of course followed by Buddhist preaching e.g 'must study hard', 'do good works' something like that.
Before exam, the school will invite the monk to come to pray for the students.
The school has a big statue of buddha just in front of the hall.
The choice is yours.
However, I like the attitude of the teachers in Egdefield Primary.
I tried to introduce my enrichment programme, and they are very open. They even invite me to display my course details during P1 orientation in December last year. They respond to my e-mails promptly. Very well-mannered. Nan Chiau has also replied my e-mails few days later even though it is a hot school.
Schools like Rivervale where my daughter is, don't even give me some face. My e-mails are never replied. Even Mee Toh didn't reply to messages and e-mails. I think it is not well-mannered as teachers to behave like this. My e-mails are specially attention to their names not a junk mail. At least they should give a courtesy reply ' I am sorry very busy, will reply you in a few weeks' time', something like that"
