my 1st assisgment is helping for P1 registration.
Cool! Never had the \"privilege\" to do so. What do they make you do?waterfall:
i'm doing PV for KH right now. jst want to send my gal in 2010.
PV can apply for some work like librarian, badminton/table tennis (to challenge student ), family day assistant, etc. school will inform PV coming events or work which allow PV to choose convenient time. -
VooVoo:
Normally, end of june is cut-off day of applying PV. don't have any idea about how many parent applied PV this year. but KH has about 40 PVs every year.

The problem is, some of those top students schools do not take care of majority students on hands. When i visited some of their website, i was surprised at those overall results... though they do produced some top students, yet overall result among the rest was quite disappointing (i think it is better not to mentioned whom they are). And there are many parents rushing to these schools because of those published information.Blessing:
i personally believe that whether a school had produced any top PSLE scorer should not be the main concern for selection of a good school. Rather it should have a good average PSLE result... such as, firstly it must have 100% PSLE passed as minimum benchmark, next is, how many of them had gone to sec's express stream?...
I agree... unfortunately this data is hard to come by and MOE does not release the information publicly because it does not want kiasu parents like us to compare schools and make the imbalance worse. Each year, the only thing MOE releases is the list of top students and schools with top performing students. We have to depend on the individual schools themselves to publish the data as they deem fit. As a result... we see a hodge-podge of varying presentation of information as schools try to show the data in the best light. How to compare like that? -

Woohooo! Care to share what you had to do? Did you spend the whole day listening into phone calls? Or teaching registering parents how to fill in the forms? Or making copies of NRICs, etc? How many hours you did in the last 2 days? If it is 8 hrs per day then you already completed 16hrs... 14 more to go! -

Hi,
I just came to realise there are many parents living near Kong Hwa. I live the school too. Does that mean we are all under the same estate?
My ger is 4yo this year and she will be P1 in 2011.
Kong Hwa is also my 1st choice and Katong Pri is my 2nd.
I do hear my colleague mention about Haig Girl but I have a younger son. I dun want to go searching for school after 2 yr.
Infact, I am old ger of Temasek Pri unfortunately it is too far for me.
