      So crazy this year, sc < 1km confirmed bollating, and the number of this category is still increasing in the last day ....
      Yup I called to check too. <1km balloting.

        Quite shocking to hear RGPS requires balloting within 1km. I thought like previous years, to ballot outside 2km

              anyway too late to change application now as application for 2C has closed. surprise that school has the info because the online applications for 2C are processed by MOE(?) For earlier phases, school will email parents to follow up on additional documents such as submission of NRIC and birthcert/citizen cert. Therefore, earlier phases (2B and before), school admin will have data but not sure about phase 2C process. but school admin may not disclose info depending on policy? not sure if such info counts as official secret. Lol


              good luck to all phase 2C applicants. will be an agonising wait till 10 Aug.

                wow ! This year is shocking ! With so many vacant seats left, how can there be balloting within less than 1 km, for SCs ? This is so un-precedented, un-expected !
                I thought those staying outside 2 km, then need to ballot.

                How come suddenly, got so many people staying less than 1 km ? Is there a new condo built ?
                Oh dear ! That means those who residing
                ( between 1 to 2 km as well as those who staying beyond 2 km), have wasted their precious golden 2C chance, if they are not aware of this, & did not pull out in time, to join some other primary school.

                  Maybe the new home distance rule has made a difference. So sad now that we will have to wait for the SC<1KM balloting results.

                    Yes same thought. How can it be possible suddenly >90 little 6 year old girls staying within 1km?? So many houses available ??

                    That said, the current watten estate condo jus got Enbloc. It currently has only 100 or so units. It’s going to be rebuild into a 300++ unit condo. One of the largest condo in the area. Perhaps once it enters the market RGPS May rly start seeing a 1km balloting trend going forward with the extra 200++ units.

                        No that one is already being built. Almost done in fact.

                        The current watten estate condo Enbloc news just came out not too long ago. and they r still vacating their current residents. It’s along watten road. Right opposite coronation plaza.

                        Oh I checked. Current condo has 104 units only. But plan is to rebuild it into a +/-300 units development.
