hi, tell me about it...

I live within 1km from CH but already planning for contingency - Townsville in Phase 2C

did u register with CH? The no of appli is v high tis year, i was told by sch there are 58 reg who r living within 1km. Im also living within 1km, stil havent decide yet. :?

I'm also living with 1 km of CH. I went for the PV talk and applied for PV, but no reply from the principal so very disappointed. The least they could do is to reply non-acceptance so that I can focus on other schools in Bishan.

I think CH is going get even tougher to go in, considering there are 2 new developments near it, Natura loft and clover by the park..maybe that's why they dun even bother to reply me

Hi they expect parents to pro-actively call & make appointments with them to discuss our preferred projects ...we dropped out subsequently due to work commitments ....

Hi winnie, thanks for sharing your experience

I sms-ed the principal twice our proposed projects and suggested 3 projects. But twice he didn't even acknowledge nor reply. Didn't dare to call him leh, because his instructions during the PV briefing was to sms him. When I emailed the admin to ask about whether the PV is still open, the admin didn't reply.

Oh well, maybe my proposal isn't attractive enough

hi mamemo


we signed up early last year and probably back then not so many PVs yet. However, after much deliberation, we decided to give CH a miss and applied for KCPP under phase 2c as we are w/n 1km from both schools…cos chances too slim for CH. I have checked around on KCPP and they are ok just kinda overshadowed by the other 2 heavy wts.

cheers

Clover by the park and natura loft are currently being built, can they register using new address?? :?

Yes....as long as the developer's committed TOP date is no later than 31/12/2011. Meaning, the home owner must move in to the new place by the time P3 starts.

Hi Winnie,

Thanks...in that case, think I'll give CH a miss though it's a pity because it's just beside my block. Think I'll enroll my boy in my alma mater instead and just concentrate on preparing him well for P1

u have made a wise move to reg with KCPP. I juz happened to be within 1km from CH but 1-2km from KCPSS, if i could get a cfirm pl in KCPSS i wouldnt hv sleepless nite over CH balloting . As usual, tis year KCPSS is also ballotg for 1-2km. Juz too bad there are no other schools within 1km from my pl except CH, at least u have choices. :x

Hi pokemon, my child is due for reg next year. Why I consider CH is
1) Proximity to my house and
2) There is an affiliated Sec School

And I like the learning environment in CH when I toured the school during the PV briefing.

Haha...so I should consider selling my house !
