[Geylang] Primary Schools

[MMM]

Are you asking about MBS? If it is, not too sure.


Supposed to move in June this year. Principal mentioned about moving to single session so the move will potentially delay to Jan 2010.

However, my bil who is handling part of the construction project told me that they have been given a timeline to handover by Q2 2009. So I wonder if they are moving or not.

1.39km away.

Is your kid in MBS?

I am staying around Joo chiat and preparing for my K1 girl to primary school in 2011, which is the best school, anyone can recommend?

Are you within 1km of TNS? There is a cut off area for the 1km and I know some part of katong is not included.


TNS is the most popular school in that area that alot of parents try to get into. It is SAP and offers GEP.

However, you need to judge for yourself on the chances of getting in TNS as well as your girl’s potential/ interest in the chinese language,etc… I always feel that if a child don’t speak the language or find the language stressful, it may not be appropriate to send them to SAP school.

I also heard good reviews about CHIJ (Katong).
