ryes:
Technically, yes only at Phase 2C if not Catholic nor PV. But you can try serving in grassroots if you live within the same constituency as SJIJ. That will get you into Phase 2B.Hi all
I am keen to enrol my son in sjij. I've read that sji doesn't accept New PV of non students is that right?
I'm not a catholic. Hence does it mean my only only chance is in Phase 2c?
I'm living 1-2km -
Thank u for your reply.
Sjij is not within my constituency leh. Sob sob.
May I ask then,
If I secure a place at sch A in phase 2b, can I monitor phase 2c sjij and on the last day if there’s good chance 1-2km balloting, can I withdraw fr sch A and try sjij -
ryes:
Sure you can. However, most years, SJIJ ballots at Phase 2C for 1-2km and sometimes within 1km even. So it's better for you to get a seat in Sch A first, esp if it's not bad. If you decide to take the risk at SJIJ, you must be OK with a backup school such as St Gabriel's.Thank u for your reply.

BTW, this is a parents networking thread for parents with kids already in SJIJ. You should take your discussion to the Novena schools thread in the Primary Schools selection thread.

Hi Cherrygal
Thank you for your reply.
Sorry to have posted in the wrong thread.
Apologies. -
parents, can check with you…are there so called top 3 classes in SJIJ…
from what i observed, Joseph, Patrick are the good classes…any others? -
Sigh, based on the numbers so far n temp relocation, wonder if >2km stand a chance this year? (think SMPS balloting for >2km last year) My DS said he would like to attend a boys sch. Longshot.

Hi gvyong
SJIJ has shifted back to their permanent site at Essex Road in July. If you are staying more than 2km for Phrase 2C, chances you are unable to get a place at all, no chance to even ballot.

I just got a place in SJI Junior. I have a few question around logistic for school.
1. How much is the school bus fare from SJI (houses within 2km)
2. Does the school bus picks the kid up after ECA?
3. How much are the fees that we need to pay every month?
4. For P1, there is no ECAs right?
5. When is the orientation day?
6. When do we need to formally submit all the forms and documents the child for school? -
Who is in P1 next yr?

WELCOME to SJIJ My kid is P1 this year.

I just got a place in SJI Junior. I have a few question around logistic for school.
1. How much is the school bus fare from SJI (houses within 2km) - I pays $70 for one way to Toa Payoh Central
2. Does the school bus picks the kid up after ECA? - I understand from older kids parents that they do have such service at a per trip charge
3. How much are the fees that we need to pay every month? I think it's $6 per mth? It goes thru Giro thus din bother
4. For P1, there is no ECAs right? There are no ECAs
5. When is the orientation day? Last year it was in Nov
6. When do we need to formally submit all the forms and documents the child for school? During Orientation
