Hi there,


Prob going there by school bus since it’s PM session and traffice is prob not that bad. I’ve called the School Bus Co and they currently do have route to Pasir Ris /Sengkang, I believe. As for the return leg, prob fetching her.

hi, my hubby is exAT. My son born in 2005 so we are thinking of registering him for p1 at AT.


I just read thru the forum and am concern bout them moving… i am currently staying at Sengkang area. If the move to a pretty far of place… then it will definately be a hassle to take either school bus or public transport.

Anyone have anymore news on the premises??

Can anyone tell me if it is very stressful in ai tong?

A friend who had a kid in Tao Nan said that his kid was expected to know everything and the teachers mainly did revision in class. Apparently, the kids in schools like ATS and TN will take enrichment classes and tuition in order to cope with school. Is this true?

hi yipee.
now a days most of the kids take up enrichment class outside, is actually parent feel they wan to give their kids more and can be more outstanding in sch. i dont feel ats is very stress, i think other sch is even more stress, which i hv come to know sch in sengkang during the PSLE exam they go back for extra lesson after the paper and even children day also go back to sch and take extra lesson. But ats never does these lor, as what i see fr the pass yr my kids go through, i think they hv reasonable hw.

Hi,


I saw the updated statistics and am extremely concerned. This is the first year that balloting has to be done for those within 1 km under Phase 2B. Does anyone know what is the reason? Higher number of PV, SHHK members? What is the intake for the PV this year?

Also, if balloting is required under Phase 2B, are those staying within 1 km ballot together within those between 1 and 2 km?

Getting concerned because I am soon moving to within 1 km but it does not seem like an advantage anymore.

omg, balloting within 1km for phase 2B? i’m trying my girl for ATS under this phase next year AND im staying out of 1km! Most likely a gone case…

[MArVeLIciOUS]

yeah this year ai tong quite hot, going for balloting for volunteers < 1km…


but the situation is crazy at catholic high, where theres only 9 places for 2B and 9 for 2C… the volunteers there stand less than 20% chance of getting in!

imagine their frustration, and the current dilemma - stay and ballot in an even bigger pool at 2C knowing their volunteering had been in vain, or choose another less desirable school…

cant imagine their anguish right now…
