      *sigh* So hard for my children to get into Nan Chiau Pri even though my place is within 1km and my mum's place (where my children goes after school) is just across a service road from NCPS. Applied for PV but got rejected. Looks like even if I was accepted and clocked the required no. of hours, will still have to ballot šŸ˜ž
      But if u are in phase 2b, so far from history, under phase 2b, within 1km, no balloting required. U may want to try GRL or SHHK route. But u must ensure u join them early enough.

        Yes, I am aware of these additional 'avenues' but SHHK is out for me as I am not Hokkien. The GRL route may still be possible if I start now for my youngest girl but may be difficult for me to commit that kind of time as I am already very tied up with my job... *sigh* Will think about it though... Thanks!

          Ummm....you mean phase 2B includes those staying within 1km? It isn't stated in the MOE brochure, I thought that would be in 2C, like those staying within 2km. Can someone please enlighten me? :?

            Hi concern2,


            You sound like one of those parents who think that you belong to a specific phase because of the distance of your home to the school?

            Please read the MOE info carefully:

              Hi, I would like to seek the open opinion of parents...


              I have a 6YO girl and a 2YO boy...
              I have registered for my girl in RGPS under Phase 2A...
              But am thinking of registering at NCPS as I am staying in SK...
              And then my boy no need to worry leow...

              But a lot of people are now \"scolding\" me for giving up the chance for my girl... say dun becos of convenience give up such a good school...

              I mean NCPS not good school meh? Hiaz...
              OMG :!: Please DO NOT pull your girl out from RGPS where she has a guaranteed place. It is very hard to get into NCPS unless you qualify for the phases before 2C. For 2B, make sure you are within 1km. I tried to apply for PV for my boy but was rejected. Tried balloting under 2C but was unsuccessful too. Do consider carefully if you want to try your luck at NCPS but do consider your options if you dun get a place there ie. are you prepared to accept the alternative choices...

                Hi aaadaddy, if your wife is a hokkien, she can register as SHHK member.
                As for volunteer works for clan, you can definitely work it out. Not forgetting, you will meet many new friends and probably bump into long lost friends.

                      Yes, confirm not stated! But why isn't it mentioned? Looks like I have missed my registration...So would the 1km given priority over the 2km in Phase 2C?

                      Sorry, it was mentioned in the footnotes on this page,but i didn't see it in the brochure

                        home distance to school only matters when there is balloting. Read the portion under balloting.
