All About Church/Clan/Society Membership

Hi there, my question seems to have dissapeared. My hubby is a church goer at Telok Ayer methodist church. He was baptised there as a child and recently went through an adult baptism too. How do we go about getting the letter for 2014 registration? Is there a certain number of years that he has to be a member? Does the child have to be baptised as methodist for registration into phase 2B? Is the church affliated to ACS J and ACSP? Thank you in advance.

Watch out for the announcement on church bulletin some time in June every year. They will announce. If not, can always check with church admin around that time too. Think the number of years not important but the active ministry and participation in church life is necessary for your form to be endorsed. Yes, Methodist churches under the Methodist church in Singapore have affiliation with all the ACS. Sorry, I'm not sure if child baptism is a Pre requisite (but used to be member of Methodist church for many years). A friend working in church told me pastor will check if the child attends Sunday school regularly.

Hi, can someone advise whether ther is any minimum period to join a clan to get a recommendation letter for Primary 1 registration? The child is due for registration in 2014. Thanks.

Based on old information, SHHK has like a points system - this is internal criteria (tenure of membership, number of hours of volunteer work, endorsement, etc etc) that no one has access to. Then they have to consider also the number of vacancies before determining how many letters they can give out. it's really a black box to those outside the clan.

but what I understand is that for schools like Aitong, Tao nan, the bar is set very high due to overwhelming demand. So best to know what is plan B before hand.

All the best.

Hi. Those in phase 2B with church affiliation, can I check if your pastor’s letter was specific for only one school? Mine is and I am wondering if in case I need to register in second choice school becos first choice school odds are no good, will the second choice school accept my church letter altho it indicates first choice school?
