[Jurong West] Primary Schools

[ctcc]

Hi parents,


Just to share ….

I am very lost this time during last year…. No choice I have to be thick skin and talk to those aunties who always bring their chn to wait for school bus (any school). I am lucky that I met all helpful aunty who share with me abt their chn school. Some will even show me the text book, homework, etc.

Juying is smaller as compare to other school in Jurong and the distance make Juying sound so ‘WuLu’…… After I registered I was still abit … is it ok? Or not?

The orientation they organize was very successful. set up game booth for our chn to try and pics. We (chn and we adults) feel very comfortable after that. After the orientation, around nov, there will be talk again (optional) for parents to help to prepare chn for P1. I get to know some of parents whose chn is in the same class as mine, we exchange phone no for our future survive…

The teachers I met so far are very good.

My boy enjoys the school and I am happy.

Now I am 50/50 but swaying to apply SHuqun tomorrow as they have soccer and Boy's Brigade (my boy loves soccer and is currently having lessons at the Starhub/Arsenal Junior club) rather than trying balloting luck at Rulang (which has no soccer team) since both within 1km and it s more likely that Shuqun is more secure.

I also heard that my cousin's friend had a son at Rulang but was appalled by the amount of homework and assessments that she enrolled her younger child in another school. Also my cousin said there has been talk in her circle of friends that Shuqun's reputtauion has gotten better these few years.

I will sleep on it and then make up my mind tomorrow by 8am.

good luck to those who is applying for shuqun pri sch tmr and within 1km hor.beco i think the applications for shuqun will burst beyond its vacanies for Phase 2C.but will only have balloting for more than 1km based on past 3 years history.


Coconut,they did not reveal the number.THey only said the number is less than 177 because they only applied for the purpose of applying even though they are more than 1km.and i guess they asking those more than 1Km to withdraw.No chance at all if they not within 1km.
Btw Shuqun is a good school too but not as good as Rulang .keke
At least better than the rest.

I do not have much choice.Rulang and Shuqun is the nearest which is within my sight.That is why i definitely will not consider the rest such as Xingnan, Juying,Lakeside,Jurong West and WEst Grove as my 2nd choice because it is not near at all.The next nearest one is Corporation Pri Sch if my son cannot get in Rulang lor.If it really happens i can only pray that Corporation Pri Sch will improve over the next few years.

Today when i went to register.Those who lives within 1km at Kang Ching Road also applied. :!:

The rest are too far for me too except for Shuqun and Rulang which are within 1km. Good luck for your balloting at Rulang!

Actually I have 1 more choice that is also within 1 km for me. That is Jurong Pri Sch (Not Jrg West Pri Sch ah) at Jurong East.


But applicants already exceed the vacancy. Think will walk around these 3 sch tmrw.

Aiyah!!!! Headache!! :roll:

Shuqun willbe balloting in 2C outside 1 km....but may be still gud choice since better than other schools in vicinity. In 2C supplementary no chance at all
