[Seng Kang] Primary Schools

[Papa]

Just came back from registration at NQ.

Balloting for 2C <1km applicants will be on 11th Aug 9am.
\"Lucky Draw\" will be carried out by ourselves (parents). Those who cannot make it for Ballot Day will have the other parents draw for you. Teachers at the school will not draw for you.
So, make sure you wash your hands with flower water and go Temple PaiPai before going down. :lol:
WISH US LUCK.

Hi JCC mum,


Dont think AnchorGreen’s principal is from Nanchiau.
I spoke to AnchorGreen’s principal personally and she was from White Sands Pri. She’s very approachable and down to earth, and the kind who will watch the teachers.

Hello Friends,


Whatever North Vista has done it is remarkable, for a school 1-2 yr old to get this kind of response is really great. (‘:celebrate:’)

Based on last yr data, I had registered my daughter in Rivervale, as I am within the 1KM range. I knew there will be a Balloting, and if I did not succeed then will register in NorthVista in phase 2C(S).

But, there were 2 Shocks (‘:!:’) I got yesterday, one, all the applications in Rivervale are within 1 km range so the chances are only 30%-33% as the applications are already 175 as of yesterday (assume there would be 180-190).

Second, North Vista got 167 appl as of yesterday (assuming total to be 185-190). Now my calculations say that of all the applicants unsuccessful in Rivervale, CompassV and NC atleast 50%-60% will rush to NV in phase 2C(S), which means that there will be a balloting there as the bal in 2C(S) will only be about 30 seats in NV.

SO here is what I did, I withdrew my application from Rivervale and registered in NorthVista today itself. I did not want to take a double chance of Balloting first in RiverV and then again in NV. (‘:D’)

does anybody know anyone who studies in NV, I think everyone is wanting to know something about the school

I went twice to NorthVista today at 9 am and again at 2:30 PM, when I register at 9am my num was 175, and there were 6-7 parents waiting. when I went at 2:30 I still saw 7-8 parents there. The seats there have gone very fast in 2C.


I think many parents have done what I did, to withdraw from RV/CV and apply in NV…

I would appreciate if anyone can provide some insight to the school.

Hi JCC mum,


Tks for your post whc many of us have been waiting for.
Wonder whether you can help to answer one big question.

whatever the approach, the school will still follow the MOE syllabus, Reggio Emilia is only an approach it is not a syllabus. It is not what you teach it is how you teach it.

Wow! The staff there actually told you that? I just came back too but was just informed that balloting for 2C will be held on 11 Aug 09 at 9am as you have mentioned. So I guess I will have to go temple 'bai bai' too. BTW, was told the no. of applications as at 3.30pm is 180+ ie. just about 10 submitted today so far.

Went to AGPS just now although I already registered at NCPS this morning. Just want to look around. Talked to one of the teachers there. He also told me that their principal is from White Sands PS.
Think NCPS's former principal went to Canberra PS at Sembawang since 2008.

Just called North Vista, no balloting required under Phrase 2C. Yeah! :lol:
