You don't want to consider Ngee Ann? :scratchhead:

Yes.

If you feel Nan Hua is too far for your child, assuming that your child doesn't get into Tao Nan in P2B, you may want to consider Ngee Ann in P2C.

Hi everyone,


I’ve been following this website for about 4 months, it’s been very helpful and informative. Thanks to everyone willing to share.

May I ask for advice on Ngee Ann Primary School please. We’re 1-2km to the school. I’ll be submitting my application to be a PV soon. My son is in K1.

1. Do applicants need to be interviewed?
2. What areas does the school need help most?
3. When will applicants start their volunteering term?
4. As a PV and living 1-2km, do we stand a good chance to get into the school?

Thank you

3. When will applicants start their volunteering term?

Your son is in K1 now. This means you will need to register him next year. So, PV work starts from 01 Jul 2011 and ends on 30 June 2011. I think you are late for your application already. Most schools would have selected their PVs for next year's registration by now. Please call up the school to check.

4. As a PV and living 1-2km, do we stand a good chance to get into the school?

Balloting was only conducted in P2C based on previous years' statistics. Hence, assuming you successfully become a PV, your son's chance of getting into the school is very, very good.

Thank you for your reply. Good to know we stand a good chance.


Are there any other single session schools in bedok/katong／marine parade area?
