2018 P1 registration exercise for 2019 intake

[zac's mum]

Jenn0109:

I will be moving in with my in laws to take care of them, and intend to rent out my current place. Can I still use my current place’s address for registration cos it’s still my house though I’m not residing there?

Unfortunately no.

Hi everyone


I have a dragon gal and a sg50 boy. Initial we are planning to try to ballot for Pei Chun which is < 2km so that my boy can tag along..

But i have friends who are telling us why not try CHIJ TPY since we are < 1km.

Now we are having 2nd thoughts. We are open to send our gal to a girl sch but chij is popular and we might not get a place after all.

If you are worry about CHIJ being popular, I am afraid to tell you for Pei Chun > 1km and < 2km, you won't even have a chance to ballot.

settle the older one first because 1) she is dragon year baby, especially 2) since you are staying less than 1km. be prepared to face balloting though. for pei chun, staying more than 1km away, there is no chance to even ballot.

Hi everyone!

I’m new to this forum… also having a dragon girl for P1 registration next year. I’m in a dilemma now and greatly appreciate if I could seek your advices from all of you.
I’m staying in Punggol and thinking of enrolling my girl in Holy Innocents Pri School in Hougang under Phase 2A(2). My worries are as follows:
1) No school bus from Punggol to Hougang
2) If there is, the pickup time will be early and too tiring for my girl to wake up early everyday
3) Biggest worry is that there is no school bus after school hours on days that she needs to stay back for CCA or enrichment classes.
4) Have thought of sending her to student care centre within the school but I will not be able to fetch her by 7 pm (assuming the centre closes at 7 pm like childcare centres)

Alternatively is to enrol her in Punggol neighbourhood schools but good ones will have to go through balloting since it is a dragon year.

Should I still enrol her in Holy Innocents? Please help me!! Thanks in advance.

Hello all! Im checking in here!


We stay in punggol and there is a new school right beside us but im thinking of leaving that as my last choice in 2c phrase.

I can join other schools in this grc under 2b

Bbth hubby and my schools are considered not bad.
Hub: Anderson Primary School
Me: Kheng Cheng School

But the distance frm punggol to kheng cheng tbh is very far. The pro is it is a rising school. Im not too sure abt anderson though. Hub’s been telling me to just take the school right beside us. Cus distance is a concern to him. But i have 2a2 and 2b! Why do i wanna waste it right? 

Any advice? Do i really try 2a2, 2b then 2c?

Hi there,


Am checking in here as well. Daughter will be going to P1 in Yr 2019.

As such, would appreciate opinions on the following options that I have:

Option 1: To register her in De La Salle (in Choa Chu Kang) since should be able to qualify in Phase 2A since I am Old Boy. However, currently staying in Yishun. Distance will be an issue?

Option 2: To try Chong Fu which is <1km but not sure if will get lucky and get a place. And am not so comfortable with the other schools within Yishun, should I be pushed to register in Phase 2C or Phase 2CS.

Care to advise pls.

No idea which is your 2A2 or 2B school, but I’m assuming both schools that you’ve listed are 2A2 schools as 2B is supposed to be based on your address if you are using the GRL scheme.

You should find out whether there are school bus or public transport options to your choices. If you are not able or not willing to manage the logistic for 6 years, then better to pick a nearby school.

New here and need advice.

As the competition for dragon year kids will be more tense than others, confused which school to choose for 2019 intake...

Under phrase 2A(2);
1. Fuhua Primary school - ex parent school.

Under phrase 2C;
1. Shuqun Primary school / Lakeside Primary School < less than 1 km
2. Rulang Primary school <less than 2km

Which school should I try as 1st choice?

[cchangedd]

Btw is there a whatsapp group chat or facebook group for the dragon babies?

This isn't PSLE - S1 posting, there is no 1st / 2nd choice.
You can only choose 1 school at 1 Phase.
So logically, you have to go with Fuhua at Phase 2A2 first. Then, decide whether you risk balloting at 2C for Shuqun or Lakeside. If you decide to chance your luck at the ballot for 2C, you will have to withdraw your place in Fuhua. Rulang < 2km is out, given that you would have a chance to ballot.
