        ...think too many PVs and old boys around... catholics only make up less than 20% of the school population, if i didn't remember wrongly...

            I know some parents complaining about SJIJ...but seldom heard anything about MS...

            When my son was taking the entrance exam in yr 2008 for transfer to MSHS , there were five other boys from SJIJ taking the same exam. Overheard their mothers' conversation, they wanted to transfer their boys to MSHS because their boys are poor in their chinese, wanted to change them to a SAP school. If I am not wrong, they were not selected because the entrance exam also required them to take a chinese test.

              Oh God, I am so sad that as a Catholic, I have problems sending my son to a Catholic school within 1 km of my home...why why why?


              😢
              Well at least it is still 2B šŸ™‚ I know what you mean although my situation is that there are no catholic schools nearby (although \"nearby\" is relative).

                  ya..too bad...Kellock is really a good school. My girl enjoy very much.

                  Well, not sure why Catholic parents do not send their kids to Catholic school. Some of my church friends do not even know they are register under phrase 2B. :oops:

                    We are staying in Tampines, next to St Hilda.

                    But we prefer to send our boy to Catholic school.
                    Seems like, the nearest are Maris Stella and St Stephen?
                    Maris Stella sounds very popular this year. Our chance should be low.
                    Is St Stephen OK?
                    Or is there any other Catholic boy/mix school near Tampines?

                        gathered from bishan thread...

                        Catholic High gives priority to Parent Volunteers at appeal stage (waiting list), no priority for Catholics. One of the moms called CHS and heard this from the lady who picked up the phone. Plan your strategy well.
