hi kitab
Sadly looking at the history, it's only macpherson/eunos/canossa left. Not sure abt tkps this year as i read that they have opened up 1 additional class.
really in a dilemna. kh confirmed balloting though 1km. but gmps also might need to ballot for 1-2km if you look at history. we have more or less decided on kh, but will still see how the numbers go these 3 days.
how abt u? -
I wonder if there are any parents whose kids are in macpherson/eunos pri who can share their opinions/experience, especially those who didnt manage to get in their 1st choice and end up in another sch. Didnt really hear much about these schools.

Yup, if affiliation to CHIJ (katong) is your main concern, then definitely CHIJ is a better choice for your consideration.
Actually besides those mentioned, another difference between CHIJ and HGS is CHIJ has affiliation to CHIJ (Katong). Alot of the girls eventually went to CHIJ (Katong) and these girls usually build very strong bond. I was from CHIJ Katong Sec school. I only joined them during sec school. It's amazing to see many of my sec school mates still so close after so many years. They are like sisters. In CHIJ, there are alot of eurasians so the EL standard is pretty good and during my era some notable alumni are Glenda Chong, Samantha Fox who are with Channel News Asia.skyjp:
Hi phtthp,
They are both similar only main diff is CHiJ have better English result but HGS gain 100% PSLE pass as compare to CHj which didn't achieve it yearly.
Since you seems very knowledgable with this two schools can share which school is more strict and focus on building the child confidence plus academic?
TIA
But their CL is .... I saw how most of my pals disliked CL and struggled with the language. -
Hi kitab/ any mummies who can enlighten,
Is there balloting for KH at phase 2b this year? I thought I saw 41 vac and 46 applicants. Or is it that among these 46, 41 stays within 1 km and the rest is ?1km?
Please enlighten. Thanks! -
