Helloo... May I ask to qualify for Phase 2B registration for SC within 1km, is baptism cert from a Methodist Church sufficient? Or do I need to have a membership letter from the church as well? Thanks!

In order to obtain the Baptism cert, one hv to attend a full membership class. Thereafter, the baptism will be held & church membership will be accorded. Parents who hv children due for P1 Registration hv to request for a letter of recommendation indicating clearly the school intended to enrol ur child.

Baptism certs or Methodist Membership are not accorded to to ask hoc church attendees.

Do plan early as the Membership Class takes almost a year-long. However, there are some instances where some Methodist had their Anniversary year & offer an escalated/abridge membership class.

Hope this helps.

Hi, may I know if anyone has tried or is currently using Schoolber to send your child to ACSJ? Please share your experience and the monthly fees.


My son is attending P1 next year and I am exploring the possibility of Schoolber for my son. I stay in Toa Payoh. If anyone is keen in exploring Schoolber as well and currently stay in TPY or neighbouring areas, please do PM me! Thanks!

Hello! Does anyone happen to have size 30 blue shorts to let go?


I bought 3 pairs of size 32 by mistake, thinking can alter smaller to fit. Can trade up if u need.

My boy is in P1 this year, and based on what he tells me, there is hardly any playing time

PE is mostly running and exercises, not sure about PLA
what is the times that the kids can play amongst each other?
recess seems to be spent only in eating
is it because the field is undergoing some sort of renovation?
or is it because of covid?

What play time are you expecting in Primary school? The only time is recess when kids can play catch or games provided they finish eating quickly.

It’s becos of the Covid safe management measures put in place since 2020.

The boys used to be able to play anywhere during recess. Even when the playground was closed for renovation, they could still go to the Ecogarden or foyer to run around, play catching or kick scrunched up paper for football. Even the table tennis tables in foyer were provided for those who bring their own bats.

Now the boys are only allowed to EAT EAT EAT during recess. Stay with their own fixed group until recess is over then they all walk back to classroom together. He’s getting super fat from the lack of running around.

PE 3-4 times a week helps a little bit, but like u said, the play is limited (again to the fixed group). PAL would depend on what their class is rotated to do. If it happens to be indoor activity like Batik painting this term then no play.

You may need to find external group activities for him if he craves that interaction. It is sad that the classmates bond less easily during this pandemic.

It just occurred to me that there may be some light at the end of the tunnel.


After the distribution of the Trace Together tokens (targeted end-March according to the Parent Gateway notification), maybe the schools will be able to relax the rules about the fixed groups. Then our boys can finally mix around and play together with whoever they like.

Looking forward to that day. Been hearing so many complaints about the restrictions from DS since last year cos he’s the social butterfly kind.
