[buds]

Well, at least you're in 2B ya know..

I cannot imagine the anxiety those
parents in 2C are feeling...
They are last in the food chain and
watching the numbers decline each
day...

I was asked that question last year but was not required to produce any proof.


I'm of the opinion that the school wants to identify such children as they would probably need more attentions from the teachers.

Yap, tankee's right. During my DD1's time the one who attended to me
also asked that question. I'm assuming it is a general question asked 2
all parents who are registering. Proof not required but shouldn't be too
tough cos got either report cards or report books from the pre-school
or if they can wait, end K2 can give graduation certificate. If not i oso
have their graduation pix in my hph. :lol: If that can be proof..

OIC.. never heard abt it from my friends..

Okay, so I must remember to bring along proof just in case... photo, report card, worksheets, art&craft..

Does anyone know how do we keep track of the number of kids registering at each school during the day of registration? Does one parent have to station in the school the whole day or do we call up the school to find out? Would the school entertain such calls?

teletext :?

Really?!

That would be good news if it is so...

Art & craft? :laugh:


Wah! Big file dat one! :lol:

tankee:

typically the registration status would be displayed, & periodically updated throughout the day, at strategic points within the school. Most do so at the entrance to the registration point, some at school's notice board near admin office, some at school gates.

You can call the school to ask. If you are lucky, the admin staff may check and tell you. But be prepared to be rejected, as the poor admin staff is probably already busy and the phone is probably ringing off the hook with similar queries.

Thanks, tankee.

Yeah, I thought so too...

Best bet and most accurate information would be the MOE website after
7pm, Busymom.

Busymom,
you can check with MOE's website. It is updated everyday:

http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/primary-one-registration/vacancies/

tree nymph, MOE website only update at the end of the day..

busymom, I also wish to have the same answers.. it really depends on the person who picks up the phone in your targetted school.

I have no luck with the school I'm aiming. My friends have better luck than me... they call the school 3 times a day and still get an update...



BTW, good luck!! :xedfingers:[/quote]Thanks, tree numph, but MOE website doesn't help in my case if I need to make some quick decisions before the end of the day.

Thanks, RRMummy. Looks like we are both going to be in the same boat next Friday... Best of luck to you too! :xedfingers:

No growie. I mean > More than. More than 60 people applied yesterday. I had to look twice to make sure I saw it correctly…
