Hi All


I am new here and is planning to place my son in RV, which is my alma mater, in about 3 years’ time. Is it old boys can get in easier ? Please advice.

Thanks

yes, if you are an alma mater alumni you will be able to apply for the school during an earlier phase (2A). but you will need to join the alumni and join early! good luck.

I was looking at the stats when phase 2B has just ended…RVP seems to have 90 places…I am 1-2km away from RVP registering for P2C next week. Alexandra primary seems to be a pretty popular choice compared to RVP, probably due to its P and VP. Any folks with experience does RVP typically need balloting for 1-2km? Is it a less popular choice now? If yes, for the reason above? Seems like P and VP play a big part…Next yr if CPS gets a top school P or VP, maybe it also need balloting?

I was looking at the stats when phase 2B has just ended yesterday…RVP seems to have 90 places left…I am 1-2km away from RVP and 1km away from CPS. Registering for P2C next week. Alexandra primary seems to be a pretty popular choice compared to RVP, probably due to its P and VP. Any folks can share more as in does RVP typically need balloting for 1-2km?

Just want to share my 2 cents. I have 2 children, one have transfer out of RVPS and another still in RVPS. If given another chance, I won't send any of my children to this school for various reasons.

Hi there,

I am thinking of sending mum daughter to RV next year. Between this and my alma mater (which is further away), I am facing a big dilemma! Would you please share more about why your children did not like RV? Was it too stressful or the school environment? Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
mom of two girls

Please go to RVPS! There are many good scorers in this school compared to ZDPS which is quite near. But do take note that they do not have a proper canteen till I think Next year. And they are also building an ISH too. Definitely a mix of races and religions! The vice principal is close to her students in the school too (based on my experience of 2016 P6 and P5) River Valley also has a quiet spot in the vicinity as Zouk has moved and nearby are condos that most Koreans and Japanese like to stay. They are more quiet. RVPS P6 2016
