[Woodlands] Primary Schools

[berriejam]

Think nearer one will be Northland, but it is also outside 2km from my house. So no guarantee too. But I would like to aim for a SAP school, and think there are none in the north. I am near upp Thomson, so Ai Tong is in my consideration too. But it;s too popular. Any idea where I can get statistic for the last few years balloting schools? So that I can have a better idea which one I can attempt for without facing too much balloting competitions?

Hi Iris Chan,


My nephews study in Admiralty Primary School. It is a popular school in Woodlands and always subject to balloting esp for Phase 2C. According to my sister-in-law, she feels that Evergreen and Greenwood Primary School is better. She advises me not to register my kid in Admiralty Primary School.

I am thinking to register my kid in Chong Fu but we are staying >2km. The chances of balloting in Phase 2B is very high. Hence, quite likely to do PV at Evergreen as it is also another popular school which subjected to balloting for Phase 2C yearly.


Regards,
Shmum

Just called Admiralty & Greenwoods. Registrants living within 1km for both schools exceeded the vacancies already. That means there will be balloting for those living within 1km. If you have other school in mind, it makes sense to consider your other choices.

Does anyone have more information to share about Greenwoods?
