I would like to take this opportunity to welcome all parents (fresh & continuing) to AGS. The Pre-school department has 20 lovely teachers and attendants. Academic targets for each year is met, leading to much satisfaction from parents. The preschool department has seen massive renovation and face-lift over the period. The classrooms have been retiled, washing sinks and bath showers have also been changed to modern child friendly ones. The toilet pots have been replaced (smaller sizes), which makes it easier and comfortable for children. The class size is at the barest minimum to make it easier for teachers and attendants attach utmost care and attention. AGS shall always deliver as promised. I wish all my cherished parents an enjoyable 2023/2024 academic year. Thank you.
Sincerely
Auntie Vic
