Dear all Bishan Mummies.


28 registered this morning. As I left the school at 3pm, parents were still coming. Looks like a lot of PVs are willing to risk it all. Understandable, since they have put in so much effort!

Dear Phankao,


You may not believe this, there are people who live in Jurong East and come all the way to CHS !

Dear Cherrygal,


Because Ai Tong has more vancancies compared to CHS and the area around it has no new development in recent years. A lot of PVs also stay within 1km of the school just to double their chances. Therefore, I think probability of getting into Ai Tong is higher.

One more thing, Cherrygal, MS is not that far away from Shunfu. Its just a short distance down Braddell & Bartley road, right ?

Will they release how many of the 28 are within 1 km?

Dear Bigfoot,


No, they did not post the information this time.
My guts is its about 50% of them within 1km.
The PVs who do not get a place during balloting will join the 1Km ballot again.
Its hard to tell if most PVs getting a place is staying within 1km, because it all depends on luck !

Did you register, by the way ?

Are you talking about CHS?
Unlike Catholics and grassroot members, PVs can't take their 2B qualifications to another school...so they really have no other choice!

[ClubNAKO]

Yes, you are right ! Its hard to let go after all those hardwork…

I have not registered yet. Will wait till tomorrow since my 2B can be at any Catholic school. Unlike PV, they only have one shot at 2B. I pity them really. Don't see them as competition la. Just hope as many people as possible can get what they want.
