satom:

MGS ballot just finished. Unfortunately 4 applicants not picked.


I wish them and all others in that same situation that they come across a a very good school for their kids. Wish them peace of mind and assurance that all will work well.

We went through 2 ballots this time(2b and now 2c).
The first one was not successful so we know well what it feels like.

Praise the Lord for giving grace to my daughter today. She was picked in the last 6 spots.

:congrats:

my dd was in the first few ballot drawn at nyps. :lol: have been ill in the past few weeks fretting about this P1 thingy and I'm glad that I can stop poring over the statistics. i quickly paid up for the pta membership and also volunteered for P1 orientation. so delighted that I just do whatever PTA wants me to do.


told my dd that we parents can only help in getting her into a good primary school and it is now up to her to make a difference when she is in the school. The rat race continues,,,,

:congrats:

do pop over to NYPS thread in Parents' Networking to start your networking with other NYPS parents !

Yah. Think the balloting ratio for 2B and 2C was almost the same (at least for this year). 90+ parents for 60+ seats. And dont forget, you have added competition from SHHK - which Nanyang doesnt have. So TNPS may be more difficult to get in as compared to Nanyang.

Lionel Ong:

:celebrate: Thank you. I am registering my son for Maris Stella only 3 years from now.. Maybe I need to move within 1km for Phase 2A at that time?? .. Balloting within 1km for Phase 2A does not seem like a myth anymore to me now..

So your boy is born in 2007?? Same as my second boy - who will definitely be going MS!

Haha - so who knows -- in 3 years time, maybe our boys will be classmates?

Btw - dont worry - i think 2A is very safe - sure can get in one!

VooVoo:

I wonder how the balloting at RGPS went...

:congrats: yes Praise God! the environment was indeed tensed... my relative was picked towards the end... very nerve wrecking!

I registered my daughter under Phase 2A2...caring parents here assured me it is guaranteed and true enough, my daughter got in, even though we stay more than 2km away.
