all.in.one:

So, Stardust_sq, have you got your list of top 3 options yet?

By the way Greendwood should be under my \"3rd Choices\" group.

Hi all.in.one

Read from the thread that you have done some personal research on the primary schools in Woodlands.

I'll be moving to Woodlands end of this year and right now I am looking around for primary school for my DS2. The nearest school to my house will be Greenwood Primary School but from their website, I can't obtain much info. like their past PSLE achievements. Can you pls share with me what you think of Greenwood and Woodlands Ring? I am also considering doing PV knowing that some schools need balloting in phase 2C.

Thanks in advance.

I've put my girls' names on waitlist with almost all the primary schools

here in Woodlands! Yesterday, was going round a few more schools..
very exhausting leh.. With folder containing all the results
BC and what nots, i was like going round for job interviews. :lol:

They are ALL FULL! Even for this year, none had places for them.
The waitlist files for next year (2011) lagi worse! I know cos when
they took out the waitlist files to file two more from mine from the
different folders (for different levels)... i went like :!:.

I told them my case really urgent (in case i pop earlier then how?)
That's when one lady said, \"Yah... considering your situation now
yours is quite a pressing problem especially since you're now still
travelling to and fro to send both your girls to their current school
in the west..\" She nodded and continued...\"If we have 1 seat for
one of your girls 1st, would you want to take it?\"

I went... :whut:... then :? then... :faint:
Then, that means i have to shuttle one first to Woodlands
area then another to the West as well.. Oh gosh, i honestly
don't know what to make of your offer but i'd prefer both to
get in if possible. Sending two to the west side at diff sessions
is already a feat. But sendng two at different sessions at different
schools would definitely be more work. :faint:

Hi buds


Wow, did the schools say when they will let you know? It’s really no joke waiting for replies.

Actually, we all hope to get a school near home. That’s why I was considering to be a PV so that I can get my DS2 in at phase 2B.

Hope you will get positive replies from schools soon. Take care!

Dear all,

like to check if anyone has any information on Woodlands Primary School?
I realised its not as popular so does it mean I don have to be PV for my son?
I am living within 1km of the school.

Based on past statistics, you are safe in P2C. When will you be registering for your child? Next year?

Hi QMS,

Thanks for the fast reply.
My son will be in Pri 1 in 2012.
Does phase 2C means no need PV?
I’m getting so confused over all the differnt phases…
aiyoo…

Yes, P2C means you are not a PV or grassroot leader. Based on past statistics, the school had vacancies even for P2CS.

Please see the balloting history here: http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/content/woodlands

Dear QMS,


Actually, i’m staying near Causeway point this area.
Any idea other than Woodlands Primary, what are the better schools less than 1km?

I heard Innova Primary School is quite good. But I think it may need balloting for phase 2C in the following years.
