Hello gurus.... i'm staying less than 1km to Catholic High. Not planning to do any volunteering work. Should I try out my lot in Phase 2C? Is it wise?
Seek honest advice pls.

Thanks.

TBH what other choice do you have? (Most likely, none).

Unless you are one of the fortunate ones who lived within 1km to KCPPS, you don’t have an alternative. KCPPS ballot between 1km to 2km so you would be screwed if you aren’t under 1km. You probably won’t get a chance at the rest of the popular / semi-popular schools in Toa Payoh or AMK; the less popular schools, including GYPS in Bishan, would have plenty of places for Phase 2CS. Thus, no urgency to consider them for Phase 2C.

I'm considering St Gabriel's for Phase 2C and give up my 1st choice. Probably less stressful too.
If i'm not successful with Catholic High, then I'm left with not much choices.

Do some comparisons from the comfort of your couch. School culture could be quite different. Based on hearsay, St Gabriel’s is indeed less stressful.


St Gabriel’s Open House:https://www.stgabrielspri.moe.edu.sg/e-open-house-2020

Catholic High School Open House. This is for the secondary section, but primary section’s culture probably won’t be too different:
