Possibly in 3 months’ time there will be zero community cases already. So hopefully the kids can have face-to-face Orientation. Maybe limit to class-based max 30 or smaller groups, maybe no parents allowed in. My guess.

Hope your guess is somewhat right here and there cos I dont like the whole idea of e-orientation.[/quote]

Virtual orientation has been done, for NUS students. I saw an article about a student’s experience here: https://www.todayonline.com/commentary/i-thought-virtual-school-orientation-would-be-horrible-how-wrong-was-i

However, this works for Uni students. Maybe even Secondary school students. It won’t work for Primary school students. The most important thing for them to feel settled into their new school is the F2F tour of the school and meeting their teacher/classmates in person. If not possible in November-December, then the kids will probably just have to be dropped off straight on 4th Jan 2021 outside the school (with all the separation anxiety I suppose) And then the teachers will have to deal with the pacifying & crash course orientation at their end.

The buying of uniforms & textbooks, actually can buy online.

Hi Parents,

I’m newbie here.
I can’t find Parent Volunteer page in Nan Chiau, is it mean there is no such program require in the school?
Staying within 1-2km, do i stand any chances? Elder one born in 2016, I hope i am not late for it.

1-2km slim chance, sometimes no chance.

Most probably no chance but it’s a moot point. PV is performed / joined via SHHK clan and it’s already too late for 2022 registration. You would not fulfill the 2 year requirement by 30 June 2022.

Since no chance in Nan Chiau - I just move on.

Any review about SK Green Pri / Fernvale Pri?

SK Green is the more popular of the two. Ballots under 1km. If you also live within 1km of Fernvale Pri, it would be a good back up for Phase 2CS.

Both schools will likely ballot for SC < 1km. There’s very little difference between the schools. Therefore, just pick the school you would like to ballot for and hope for the best.

Thank you Floppy
