Hi, I am a newbie to this forum! Appreciate all the advice I can get.

We are planning to register my girl in 2022 for St Nicholas primary for P1 intake 2023 and we are within 1KM. I thought I was already kiasu when I when I called the school to check today, but they said I have missed the PV cut-off date which was last year!! O.M.G.

Now I am in a panic because i know how competitive it is to ballot at Phase 2C.

1) I was wondering if there are specific churches/ clans St Nick we can join to get into Phase 2B?
2) Does it actually matter how close we are within the 1km? eg. if we are 0.3km and someone else is 0.5km, then we get priority ahead in distance? Or do all 1KM folks get lumped into 1 category with no distance differentiation.

Thank you!

SNGS doesn't have a clan. Given that you asked, I'm assuming you are not a Catholic. Typically, it will take more than a year to be initiated and obtain a baptism certificate. Therefore, the only option left is Phase 2C.

< 1km means < 1km. No difference in balloting between someone living within 1m from the school or 999m from the school.

Thank you for your reply Floppy! Much appreciated :love: at least we can be prepared mentally
