Hello Weyw,rainn_77:
Dear parents,
Does anyone knows when will all the primary school be converted to morning session? The school that I hope to enroll my ds is Gongshang Primary which is now operating in double session...
MOE website will mention...but heard target is 2016 don't know how true...so best to check with MOE website when due for P1 registration.
Many thanks for your reply. Really hope that all the school can change to morning session as my ds is an early riser and I will need to arrange for the care takers' part which can b quite tedious... Hai! Headache! -
Hello rainn_77,
Double session to single session will also mean that there is a very high potential the school will cut down on the P1 intake - they might not hve so many classes to accommodate the students for the change. Would ur chances of enrollment be impacted if that happens? -

haha jenny that would be funny if it weren't so sadly true...
Based on feedbacks and past history of PSLE, they are one of the good ones in Tampines and across Singapore, I guess above average. But you are right, CCA's are limited. I have applied for PV last Feb but was unsuccessful as there were 60 applications vs. 20 PV slots.jennyfrmdblock:
[quote=\"The Little Cheng Mommy\"]Hi, jennyfrmdblock. May I know why did you choose Gongshang Pri for your child? Is it a good school? The school compound is rather small and the CCA options are still the same as last time. I don't understand why it's popular in Tampines.
Ironically, I was an ex-student of this primary school. But I've shifted tooooooooo far away that it seems unreasonable to send my children there unless I shift to Tampines. However, if we shift, then we will be way toooooo far from my in laws, parents and my hubby's work place.
The P1 registration system brings much stress to parents. :stupid:
My house is within 1km from White Sands Primary in Pasir Ris. This is my other option aside from Gongshang. But I am not very familiar with the mix of students there. Hence I am checking if someone can give feedback. I'll check on the WS thread for input.
P1 registration is worst than the stress in giving birth to my son. LOL
Btw, on Gongshang what I've heard is that it's preferred to Poi Ching in the area, though Poi ching seems to be better academically. not sure why... something abt the teachers and the way the sch is run perhaps...[/quote]GongShang and Poi Ching areas dont overlap. The one in between are St Hilda's, Jun Yuan and East View. Both schools draw students from around the neighbourgood. Poi Ching is a SAP school and the area around was not so develop, thus higher chance of entry in the past.....however with all the new dbss, bto and condos coming up...likely to get worse..... -
Yes, agree. Initially, we intended to enroll our ds to Poi Ching due to its a SAP school. After much reading from the forum and knowing how well my ds Chinese standard, I decided to enroll Gongshang Pri instead.

Chief and veterans out there, pls help me...
My story:
SG citizen, 2 kids: elder boy, younger girl.
Me: MGS, Hubby: River Valley Pri.
Staying: within 2km of Clementi pri, Pei tong pri, Qi Fa pri and Nan hua pri and Fairfield.
NH out of qn obviously.
Under phase 2b for Fairfield. I like Fairfield bcos of distance, good character programme, affiliation and mission sch cos I'm Christian.
But looking at the numbers, i'm very worried.
RV: Confirm get in due to hubby's alma mater, but very faraway. Called up, sch bus will come at 5.30am! I do not think I can commit to sending son to and fro for next 6 yrs as I will have to work.
Also, I was thinking if it's worth the distance to also send my gal there next time, as I still prefer her to go MGS. But 2 kids in diff schs is very headache.
Which sch should i choose?
I would definitely prefer RV to the other schs in clementi -
