I will be registering my girl for P1 this year.


Need your kind advice and comments which school is a better choice
as we have 2 options :

1) Bukit Panjang Primary - my former school, 2.5 KM
2) Henry Park Primary - hubby former school, 10 KM

If I am not wrong, both schools fall under Phase 2A2, which means no need to
go for balloting . Please correct me if I am wrong.

We were thinking of going for Bukit Panjang as it is near our house whereby it
is possible to arrange school bus for her. On the other hand, friends and
relatives have feedback that it would be a waste to give up Henry Park.

Appreciate parents would give your honest opinion , thanks in advance

I have never stepped foot into this thread before since I am long over P1 registration, but happen to chance upon this post and cannot help but post a reply.

#1 Bukit Panjang is not affiliated to Bukit Panjang Govt High.
#2 Henry Park is not a SAP school.

And my personal opinion is that it is crazy to send a child to a school 10km away. :roll:

[24hr-mum]

then is bt panjang CONSIDERABLY greater than henry park in standard?


i m not sure.

if its isnt, then i wld opt for nearer distance cos travelling is a big headache in terms of time n cost. why make the child travel so far n get tired? esp when cca kicks in later.

unless u willg to shift near the sch later?

Thank you for your opinions.


I agree that sending my girl to Henry Park which is 10km away is too far, which is why we were almost set to send her to Bukit Panjang.

I want to get feedback from parents if any view Henry Park a much better school that Bukit Panjang, other than being a GEP school ? And then weigh if it is worth all the trouble of distance travel, 2.5Km vs 10Km :idea:

FYI, her cousin who stay in the North is in Henry Park , Pri 1 this year. THink the distance from home ~ 20Km. Personally, I think this is crazy :shock:

[24hr-mum]

if the distance is so far, also hard for u to arrange tuition if he or she needs. the travelling is tiring enuf for a young kid


nowadays some teachers even in top sch also dun teach.
the real teachers are those in good tuition centres
