an \"orphanage\" which offers shelter for those who are abandon by others

since it is not the choice school of yr child, WHY STILL DSA ???
suggest leave the slots for those who are really keen……...

Thanks, Augmum. Your post prompted me to revisit DHS website and saw familiar faces from the Teachers' Day Dinner photographs.

Mr Lian and Mr Qiu are still very active.

Hi, Augmum,

No, that's not true. We actually select the school by distance as we stay in area with Postal code 57XXXX. RI the nearest, HCI 2nd nearest and DHS furthest.

I actually prefer HCI, as DS is in WL 1, and it is a CO if we choose HCI as 1st choice. But hubby said RI the is the nearest. DS prefers RI bcos most of his friends choose RI.

We have to fit in the name for KSP, right? So, apply DSA for 3 schools, just in case didn't get accepted by the 1st 2 nearest schools, mah.

DS's teacher actually asked parents to apply all the IP schools, ie, including ACSI, NUSH and NJC. Even more Kiasu, haha.

[/quote]That is because for GEP apply to DHS, firstly, it do not need to go for interview and gat test secondly,it free of charge. So lots of the Gep kids treat it as backup. But eventualy, only a small amount less than 5% will go there.

Hi Augmum,

Yah lor, DS's teacher asked all the kids to save Ang Bao money for DSA applications - each school approx $50. Haha.

I think I should re-phrase what I said: DS said his teacher asked the whole class to apply all IP schools and save Ang Bao money for DSA.

But, DS sometimes very blur, pass me wrong info. SA1 he told me half the class failed higher Chinese bcos he thought passing marks is like English, ie. 65%, but it was actually 50%.
