Wow! Very KS leh to start this thread. The children only in Nursery. Some still don't know how to hold a pencil properly to trace.


By now, the 2010 born kids should know colours, shapes, counting objects correspondingly 1 to 5, recognize letters of the alphabets (can be in random order), know how to hold a \"fat\" pencil correctly and trace different types of lines independently.

I believe lots of N2 can perform way beyond than what you have mentioned here :siam:

If you are talking about parents who are well-to-do, of course they can afford to send their kids for enrichment. I'm speaking for the general public who are from average income, not English-speaking background, who are not sure how to guide their children or what to teach. You will be surprised that not all N2 are as advanced as all children develop at their own pace.

Consider Northland Pri. Good school, better than Chongfu.

Hi sembgal,

Would you mind sharing why you think Northland is better than Chongfu? I always thought the general notion is Chongfu is the best school in Yishun.

Not very ks. During dd1's time, I also started around at the same age to start looking for primary school becos my alma mata too far and single gender and hubby's primary school no more liao. Not all schools follow the PV timeline for application so it's important for parents to chk with their preferred school earlier to find out what's their closing date for PV. I'm not even sure if there's enough time to apply for grassroots route or the clan route. If still have time, it's very rush. I know my fren had applied and was accepted for clan liao and her kid is same age as mine.

Plus if parents wish to shift house, need time to plan too.

So not too ks, I think maybe should have started earlier LOL.

Traditionally, one has to score very high on their internal scale (either long tenure member - 1/2 years is very hard) or maybe do a lot of volunteer work etc in order to qualify for the recommendation letter. Pls note, SHHK will not be able to tell you definitively that they can issue you the letter - it will depend on supply and demand at end of day.

Ai Tong is jus one of the school under SHHK...i am also aiming for Chongfu which is within 1km fr my house. Aitong is nearer to my boy's school in bishan. Definitely I will check with SHHK before deciding to join or not. Nothing is definite...jus trying our best to get our kids in good school afterall. Fail also no regret...as least i tried..
