Catholic High (Primary)

[soppos]

Hi, was wondering if every boy has to do higher Chinese from P1, or can choose to do so when they reach P5.

Was told that for Maris Stella, it’s the latter.
Not sure with CHS.

Hi all,


I would like to check whether there’s any chance of getting in Catholic High (PRI) during Phase 2B if one stays between 1km - 2km?
Or what happens is the parents are turned away from registration because there’s balloting even for one who stays within 1km?

Thanks.

From past history, CHS only has space for SC in phase 2B.

If, by chance, there were space available for PR, those living within 1km would
be balloting for them first. So PR outside of 1km pretty much has no chance at all.

Thanks much for your kind feedback. We are hoping to schedule a session with the principal to find out more sometime next month, to see what sorta support that the sch is prepared to render before deciding whether to enroll my son

Dear all,

Only lessons during school curriculum time, but it cannot take the place of the catechism lessons held by your parish.

Hi may I know if SC living 1-2km would have a chance? Does SC living 1-2km have a better chance than PR within 1km? I don't mind doing parent volunteer, my son is born in 2013 does that mean I have to apply for PV next year? TIA!

More often than not, CHS only has places for SC within 1km in Phase 2B - the only exception was last year (first time in nearly 10 years) where balloting occurs between 1 to 2km for SC. It's safe to say last year was an abnormally (Tiger year, low birth rate) which won't happen again for some time and Phase 2B is likely to go back to status quo, i.e. ballot for SC within 1km.

You probably will have no chance (given home address of between 1km and 2km) and PV will likely be a waste of time. You will also face an uncertainty of balloting should application heng heng extend to 1km to 2km that year.
