      Better to study nearby for first 6 years, go ahead to try your luck. My girl went to good pri school by balloting. Foundation is important, although PSLE did not score well and study in neighbourhood sec school but now studies at good JC. My son can enroll same pri school and score well in PSLE. Haha, nearby dun hv so-called ‘better sec sch’ (Sorry to say that) so every morning he has to travel far to school, not only him but few of his pri school mates stay here also do that.

          hi,


          I am new here, and would like to know more bout parent volunteering. I am considering CHIJ Kellock, do they accept PVs? could not find any portal/forms on their website…
          I am staying in Queenstown.

          also, do you think I should even consider HPPS? with no alumni, link whatsoever… my dd is 2012 baby… I guess it is about the right time to start?

            Dragon baby... The balloting will be fast and furious... Need to plan carefully to increase your chance of getting in your preferred school in Phase 2B. :scared:

              hi


              need some advise here. my boy is 2012 baby and I’m planning to get him in either Mee Toh or Edgedale Primary due to distance…

              I wanted to find out more on the alumni/ affiliation of Mee Toh but can’t find any.
              I saw that the PV for last year started in Jul. Any advise on being a PV?

              Edgedale doesn’t practice PV as I don’t see that in their website.

              what else should I be preparing at this stage?
              TIA!

                Dear successful PV of Rulang Primary and Nan Hua Primary School,


                could you please share with me how you managed to get selected for pv for both schools? Would you be kind enough to PM me as i need to submit by this week.

                Would need to come out with proposals for both schools on special project for Rulang as well as Nan Hua.

                Thanks so much…really appreciate it

                    One question from my side:


                    Why are parents required to volunteer at some private schools?

                      Mee Toh is affiliated to Manjusri.

                        Some parents volunteer to get priority registration to Primary 1 in Phase 2B. I hope this answers your question.
