Edgefield Primary

Hie


My boy is in Edgefield Primary P1 his year.

Id u’re living within 1 km or even 2 or 3 km of the school, there’s no balloting required. All applicants go in. This is so for the last few years.WOuldnt know for the next few yrs tho’

However, if u’ve noticed the Parents Support Group of this school is … bad ! Dont dream of having an active support group in school or discussion over the forum. The school however do occasionally organise seminars and talks for parents on how to help their kids in their academics studies.


The only good thing of this school :

1. after school care in the school - but yr kid gotta eat at the canteen everyday.
2. Have a wide range of ECA and other form of enrichment activities.
3. QUite active in sports.
4. For P1 and above, they provide different aspects of music education to the students.


SOmehow the list of what are good are listed here. However, somehow, I dont feel any soul to this school. Dont ask me why.

Hi


thanks for your feedback on efps. How about the teachers? Are they good and thoughtful to the students? To me, the teachers are the most impt. Whether they kids are motivated or not depends on how well they like and "look up" to the teachers.

I have a DS going to Pri 1 in 2 years’ time and now in dilemma whether to choose mts or efps.

Thks!

Hi. My son will be studying in EFPS next yr 2011.

Anyone has any idea whether we parents can stay with our child during 1st few days of their school?

if i didnt remember wrongly u can hang around during their recess only for the first 3 days only. there will be a buddy ( p5 student ) to guide them around for the first week of school. so dont have to worry.

MINE is in P2Hope. I'm a \"just a few minutes old NEWBIE\" here, joined this group cos my friend saw your post and asked if I would like to link up with you.

We can get in touch here perhaps, or privately if you prefer

Like to check I am staying infront of EFPS is it mean I have priority in 2C?


or if 2C have 100 seat, 50 within 1km 51 more than 1km. Do I need to

ballot?

Sorry I'm probably not the best person to reply, cos I'm not exactly sure how the system works, but as far as I know, for the past several years, I haven't heard anyone who had wanted to but couldn't get into Edgefield Pri. (I even know people who missed the actual registration but still got it)

Possibly someone else can help with the know-hows of the mechanics of the balloting system?
