      Hi Savannah00,


      NCPS has really hot history of balloting every year. how near are you staying from the school?
      to what I know, last year SGPS no balloting and filled up just nice after 2cs.
      maybe you can check on this year's numbers after registrations are over.
      But for us we try to avoid the stress of balloting as much as possible.

      Maybe best if you could visit the schools and see which environment you prefer? My boy is not in SGPS yet so i can't give you much advice on the school, but only that we rather liked it when we visited during the open house. School interior doesn't feel too big or overwhelming and lower primary classrooms are on the lower floors.:)

        Hi Shugarhigh,
        We are just opposite NCPS. I see this year by now phase 2c oversubscribed. When is the open house usually for SGPS?

            hi shugarhigh,


            I also registered my son to sgps.
            I called up today abt 330pm they still have 34 vacancies. so i guess my son will be attending the school. hopefully no surprises. πŸ˜‚

            btw i also stay at amk ave 10, maybe can arrange home transport if our kids are in the same class πŸ˜„

            Hi Orb,

            thanks for the suggestion! yes, we shall do a morning try out one day!

            leejeslyn, sorry no, I don't have contacts but I'm also in AMK area at ave 10. πŸ™‚
            If our boys do happen to be in same class and have same timetable maybe we can work out the going home transport.

              Hi Shugarhigh,

              Congrats that your child gets into SGPS. So you applied under phase 2c? Would you recommend the best way is just completely avoid nan chiau and apply for SGPS under phase 2c? But we stay more than 2km away from SGPS. Still possible to get in? If no ballot should b ok right? The open house for next year's applicants should also be 2-3 months before 2016 P1 registration (2017 intake) starts right?

                Hi Kenzu

                You're at ave 10 too?:) so coincidence. Think for SGPS they told us that last year they filled up just nice after 2Cs.
                Maybe can see you during the orientation in nov. Will you be going?

                Hi savannah00,
                We applied under phase 2b for SGPS. As for which school to sign up at, you probably have to go through both schools and see which you'd want to send your boy to coz since you are within 1km to nan chiau, logistics might be easier vs transport to SGPS? Based on this year's numbers, there's no balloting for phase 2c. But you still have lotsa time to decide so no worries.
                This year open house for SGPS was in late May so look out for it next year. πŸ™‚
