update - I have officially bought a place at CCK. so this is phrase 1 of the plan to get into NH. I have joined the Alumni to qualify for Phrase 2A1.
to add to it, now you have the Vision of high price there, no need the Polis .... but don't need to be exactly next to Nan Hua la....Jurong East also can since it is not depending on distance to get intitank:
Move house consider a serious decision & right now believe that Clementi, West Coast are expensive ever since the development of Fusion No Polis, Bio Polis etc etc.
It would be wise to look around school near to your area. Anyway hope you can come to a good decision.
Found out that school buses go to CCK. anyway, it looks likely my wife who is SAHM will be doing the ferrying.
Found out that NH is a top school in SG so cannot bear to let the chance slip away for my kids.... -

Wow, in my time, NH was not that hot and despite living very near the school, my parents opted to send me further. How times have changed! Lucky for you, as my school eventually closed down and I no longer have the P2A advantage!

Juroong East, Clementi, West Coast, Buona Vista, Dover would be considered as near to NH -
Am going to revive this thread, hope someone can help me out of this dilema ...
Currently I'm staying up in Woodlands, and am waiting for my new home at Margaret Drive to be ready likely by late 2014 / early 2015. Will need to enrol my DD to P1 by 2013 for enrolment in 2014. I can enrol her in my old school Qifa Primary School under Phase 2A2, but I think distance will be a little far?
Am also considering some primary school options nearer to my future home, which includes Queenstown, Gan Eng Seng and Zhangde Primary. Among the three, I heard good feedback about Zhangde, but distance wise, it's definitely beyond 1km, although it's within the borderline 2km mark. Judging from its popularity & balloting history, I doubt the possibility of a getting in during phase 2C is quite high for me. which means I may need to consider doing PV for consideration under phase 2B.
Now I'm not sure what I should do :? ... shall I just secure a placing in Qifa Primary in phase 2A2, although distance may be a contention ... or shall I try Zhangde for Phase 2B? Any feedback for Queenstown or Gan Eng Seng Primary?
Thanks so much for all your help!
