Hi SAHM_TAN,


Thanks so much! I feel a bit more optimistic now, haha. Keeping my fingers crossed; can’t wait for Aug 1 so that things can finally come to a conclusion. I like my school 1 too but really keen on school 2 coz I think it’ll be a much better fit for my DD.

So those who want to last min then decide which sch to reg can only reg at sch on 1 aug…

After registering do u think its wise to hang around or just leave.

Sigh. Both sch I’ve chosen have balloting to be done
One within 1 km where chances are slim but within walkin distance.
One 1-2km balloting chances slightly higher but sch is far away.

hi dears, I have been receiving the following advice:


Choose your DS or DD school wisely.
:?
Remember if you choose a competitive school (though it may be a good school) - be prepared for 6 years of very,very hard work. It is okay if your DS or DD can take it. Otherwise, they may be very stressed and may 'break down'. :yikes:

Best to choose a school which you feel is not 'pressurising' to let them have a fair balance of work and play. You will build a very happy child and the bond between you and your child will grow (cos you can spend happy moments with the child instead of just pressurising them to do homework,study etc etc)
:rahrah: :imcool:

For P2C, will have to monitor on 1 Aug. If you are registering after 2.30pm and you have no other back-up, and living within the balloting distance then not much to do but to go home and wait for news.

For the 1-2km school does it ever have balloting <1km?

Tough choices.

All the best

S'times (or most of the time), the pressure comes fr the parents, not from the school....
