There is no such thing as 'guaranteeing' a place one. All depends on the no. of vacancies vs no. of applicants under phase 2B in the year u register.
But based on past 3 yrs' trend, there was no balloting conducted under phase 2B for Rulang, meaning all PV get in. Do note that the no. of applicants = no. of vacancies (ie. the numbers match exactly) for 2006 and 2007 though. So it is a very thin line u are walking upon. It would help if u are staying within 1km. -
hihi,
i am staying:
1) within 1 km from West Grove
2) within 1-2km from Xingnan
3) outside 2km from Rulang
I agree that the culture of the school is very important.
As I believe that character development is much more important than academic achievements.
It seems that I need to do PV if I want to get into either of the school due to the distance and popularity.
Tohwei, what exactly do you do as a PV?
Are you working as well? -

rulang pv chances much higherwhich year your child
xingnan confirm 100% shall can get
west grove and xingnan give you a list to tick which area to contribute
rulang divide in to 6 ares
eng, chinese, maths,science, admin,operation and cca etc
among all applicants chose only 45
these 45 is selected by 11 personnels in clude principal, vp and hod admin mgr and operations mgr
then job scope is given by them respectively
me working free lance part time basis
xingnan and rulang better for pv because the hours can be easily achieved
west grove due to many pv you can gonna ihr one week for canteen duties
i strongly recommend xingnan or rulang west grove i don;t think much although the principal ms teresa pang is a wonderful lady but i persinaaly prefered xingnan although i am more than 2km
alternatively if you want single session, go for corporation starts at 8am -

if i am you, i will apply rulang and xingnan anyway, rulang still got to go for interview in case unsucessful still go xingnan to fall on
west grove if pv not enough slots, priority given to pv staying within ikm first
Tohwei, what exactly do you do as a PV?
Are you working as well? -
Appreciate all the info...
Would you know whether there is any open house for the schools?
To be honest, I would not be able to commit a lot of hours as PV as working full time (as well as weekend take care of my baby girl) and the fact that my hubby travels extensively during weekday.
If I could qualify for Xingnan without PV, would be great! -
chrislyf18:
what is your email, perhaps i can email the list of xingnan volunteer service for you by the way, for xingnan by 1km the vacancy already clsoed so for your case between one -two chances is nearly zero volunteer is a must i email you a list of the services you can take a look anyway everyyear the same no changes you can start now than finish slowly so far only xingnan got open house, if you ask me other school i will chose coporation only for the single sessionAppreciate all the info...

thanks baby.chio & tamarind
I went to Juying Pri. quite impressive with the school and was surprise that 1 of the teacher actually called to explain further. They are single session which is good but it is a little further in and my caregiver will have problem sending/fetching my son for CCA (no sch bus)
Hence, i’m left with only 1 school that is within walking distant… JWPS
base on past history, it is quite popular in phase 2c.
