hi there i am very stress now don't know wat is the best i am living vry near to xingnan pri. jus next to it actually. but heard that west grove is better at least more popular. will be like 1-2 km catergory. thinking of trying my luck on west grove but anyone can advise. wat if l lose in the balloting and risk myself losing xingnan chance and end up to the undesirable ones.

Hi ocean33,
May I share my view here? Hope to \"de-stress\" you abit...

Xingnan Primary is a well-established school in JW area; did you attend their open-house? If you are <1km under Phase 2C, try your luck there 1st! :rahrah: From the past history - West grove is definitely having balloting over at phase 2C - and it more favorable towards those staying within <1km...and that radius already covers big areas because there are too many housing flats surrounding that school!

Above is just purely my own opinion

Isn't XN pen house on the 9 July 11?
Did I get it wrong?
Then again, my DD just very young, just begin Kiasu.

hi, what do you guys think of Shuqun? My hubby is an old boy there, but my son prefers Rulang. We are staying <1km from both schools, but if we were to try for Rulang in P2C, if \"touchwood\" failed to get in, we will need to execute plan B, which a will be a big headache.


Would appreciate any comments.

Thanks.

Y not u secure a place at Shuqun 1st then monitor the vacancy of Rulang at P2C. If u think u want a risk then dun regret. What is ur plan B? Lakeside Primary for P2C Supp? Is it ok? I think its quite near to ur place. For me, im going to take the risk if i prefer the school.

Hi mummy of 3, thanks for your response. Yes, we will go ahead to \"reserve\" a place at SQ first at P2A2 and monitor Rulang. However, we will still need to make decision if to proceed with Rulang balloting, what is our cut-off, meaning, the vacancies left for Rulang at P2C? Proceed if vacancies> 20?

Well, for our Plan B, really have not much idea which one. Lakeside, Boon Lay Garden are out. Possibilities are Corporation, Yuhua at JE. But we have limited info with these 2 schools, anyone cares to comment on them?

Thanks.

So you mean your DD1 is in Yuhua, and why didn't u register your no.2 at Yuhua too? So where is your first choice then?

Actually, I quite like CPS envt, big campus, but never have the chance to visit it. Does anyone knows if they do have open house this year?

i don’t think CPS has open house? am i correct, champion or LKVM?
