Just to give more infor for considerations:


- Lunch for RSS SC have to be taken in the school, and I worried my son will not eat lunch at all and instead go to play. For the LP SC, they have in house cook and lunch will consume in centre before going to school.
- LP SC have shower area, which I not so sure in RSS have or not.
- LP SC have tution, which at this stage probably wont matters yet.
- LP SC do not allow electronic games even during the school holidays(if this is a concern to parents)

Anyway my options are still open, so more feedbacks are welcome

Hi,

Just to share my opinions on student care..My DD is in BASC (continue from her childcare) at simei instead of RSS SC. At that point my concern was that lunch was taken at school canteen and was told that shower was not allowed for P1 & 2. Henceforth we dec'd to let her cont'd at her childcare.

Although distance is further compared to RSS SC, at least I felt that her current BASC is less rowdy. A more disciplined environment. I feel that it's important especially during sch holi when she has to spend a full day there.

Believe it depends on whether the child is independent or suited for student care. Any student care will have naughty boys and girls, same as in school. In fact since start P1 this year, DS came back with mannerism that we know never exists......


Student care are not designed to keep children discipline, so up to the kids to descipline themselves into the SC routine. If up to me and no choice but put DS into SC, I will still go for RSS SC as distance makes alot of differences in terms of time and safety.

Last nite, DS told me CL Oral Test 2day. I told him go and swim your own, no time and dunno how to teach....

CL & EL Oral exam is on coming thursday leh, how come is today :?

Hi, I'm new to this forum. Hope to get some advice about PV in RSS. I guess I'm in the Phase 2C category so will need some sound advice as to what I can do/should do?

When is your child due for registration? How far do you stay from the school?

If your child is due for registration next year, then in all likelihood you are too late to apply for PV. That would put you in phase 2C.

Looking at http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/bedok, RSS requires balloting for under 1km in phase 2C. So if you are living outside of 1km, then it's best you start thinking of an alternate plan.

Hi e2mum,

Nice to meet you here. I am also staying in Punggol. My DS will be attending RSS next year too. Are you an ex-student of RSS?
We have checked with the school bus operator. They will cater the bus service to Punggol if there are enough students. Your child maybe the first to board the bus and last to alight and the journey takes about one and a half hour to reach home. Personally, I think the long journey is just too tiring for our little one.

I am from Punggol too! Are you mommies working mom or SAHM? Will you kids be attending student care? If you are working, is your kid also attending child care now? Heee sorry to be shooting off questions, our kids might already know one another now!

Hi momilicious and appleng,


Great to know both of you. Let answer your qns, one at a time.

Momilicious - my hubby is old boy of RSS, hence we enroll our ds to RSS oso. I agreed that 1 1/2hr of travelling is too tiring for our kids. just wonder if any cabbie willing to offer this service instead of school bus.

appleng - I'm a working mum. Most probably will put my kid in student care. Yes, my ds is now in sunshine kids

Hi Mommilicious,

I personally agree one & a half hour journey to reach home is really going to drain the little ones out. Imagine he will reach home only by 8pm. My DD now reach home by 7.15pm via sch bus to simei, she ordi looks tired at times and hungry.

You may like to arrange your own personal tpt arrangement in order to get home earlier. But definitely will be more expensive than school bus. Just my opinions.

Hi appleng,

Great to know another punggol mummy here... :hugs:
I am currently a SAHM. My kid is attending full time childcare at a centre in the west.
Are you a ex-student of RSS too? Are you a SAHM too?
