have just checked with the school


Phase 2B - 44 vacancies
Phase 2C - 43 vacancies

good luck to all registering at PHPPS

Thanks for the info. I rang the sch but line was engaged. Were you the one hogging the line? Keke. This meant only 6 aplns today. I expected more aplns actually. So there's still 44 to aim for (actually 43, but my good neighbour janet decided to give me one more slot to lottery )

Phase 2C,
43 places is almost half of the previous 2 years spaces.
Looks like need to ballot for within 1km. 1-2km think zero chance?
Am i right?

Think this year Phase 2B may need to ballot also.
will the school not consider cutting classes this year?

Huh, not challenging enough meh. Still asking sch to cut classes :?

Hi markfch,

I hope that 1 extra place will give a little girl or boy an additional chance to get into Pei Hwa. All the best.

So mumto2’s latest post is confirmed ? 87 places left for 2B/C.
Phase 2B - 44 vacancies
Phase 2C - 43 vacancies

What was the number of vacancies left for Phase 2B/2C last year ? Based on last year (kids born in 2003) ONLY, there was no balloting required for Phase 2B.

Next time I suggest to MOE to allow parents like you to transfer privilege directly to parents like me. That's what good neighbours are for

Hi markfch, it so happens I have another option...or else it will be 177 places taken up at Phase 1 and NOT 176. If that happens, I won't be your kind neighbour.

anyone registering their dd for MGS Pri this year? I am registering dd next yr at MGS…just bought a place nearby and re-joined the church…

Hi markfch,

From what I observed, in order to get into my former school at TPY, one has to stay within 1km and still face balloting based on track records.

We will be in contact often...I believe your son will get into Pei Hwa.
Then I'll see more of your posts in PHPPS thread. In any case, all the best to you and have a great weekend.

:celebrate:

Hope so too. Not being pessimistic here, but even if apln isn't successful, I'll still pop by the PH thread once in a while to continue my rumblings cos I made so many friends there

Sigh! So much for year of the low birth rate :slapshead:
