Hi,
Is your \"#registered\" referring to number of registration for Phase 2A2? i.e For Boon Lay Garden Primary, 7 has registered for the 202 vacancies?

hi all,

your still think should try Rulang, since the vacancies already < 50.
But I stay less than a km.....

Hi Ningval,

Yes, I know the dilemma... I think it is critical to monitor the number of people registering up to the last day of Phase 2C. There is a very high chance that we will again be looking at 3 person fighting for one seat.

If you have a good backup plan, i.e. you quite like the school and it will have vacancy for Phase 2Csupp, and you feel lucky and have a strong heart- then can try balloting for Rulang. I must add, there is also possibility that 2Csupp also have balloting, so if you are not within 1km, risk is again there and you have to then be mentally prepared for whatever is leftover..

Good luck! :xedfingers:

Dear fellow Jurong Westies,


I stumbled upon this little discussion here between parents of Corporation Primary. It sounds like a great school. So maybe this is one more consideration for your Backup Plan.

Anyway, GOOD LUCK to all!

Ningval, did you check out the above?

Can share some with you but not all la.. sorry.. I also need lots and also lots for some of our dear friends like LKVM..

Calling them will not help. I think best is if you go down personally to the school on Friday afternoon (pls give ample time as you might decide to move to Backup School). At least when you are there you can chk with them on the spot and also see how many are in the queue...

No my backup is still Pioneer due to proximity.... and I am surpised even that is 48% full... but why I put Lakeside is cause most of the time its empty even after 2C Supp and this time its oredi 51% full :!:[/quote]OIC.. yup this year alot of new records....maybe the national birthrate for 2004 went down but actually the birthrate for Jurong West area in that year actually went up... baby bonus helped.. :idea:

LKVM:

btw I agree that last day it doesnt make sense to call but be there

You'll be going on last day in the afternoon, or just register earlier and wait for balloting?

I'm going to do mine on Friday morning...
