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.

as long as a school has a religion background, it will has some form of prayer or chanting and not just about the religion but also teach the kids about life, character-building, etc.  thumbs up
it's all up to the parents, it's your choice and freedom as to where you want to enrol your child.
but remember one thing: not all neighbourhood schools are bad and not all branded schools are so good, we are not in the school, we don't know wat is going on, all we know/hear are hear-says Undecided.
do you want your child to enjoy pri school with a little bit of stress or just very stress out??? Smiley

So, you are a business partner with Egdefield Primary that why you are sing praises for them. Other you damed because they resist your business proposal?

Alaska, what kind of enrichment programmes are you offering? I hope it's not English.
