While my hubby and I get disappointed as we look at the statistics, my ds is grinning. He does not care if he is getting into any good and popular school. To him, no schooling is probably the best news. Maybe I should just adopt half of his attitude.

Please also take note that school bus will not be able to fetch her to additional classes or CCA or any other activities in school


Will there be any risk for balloting on your choice for School P (within 1-2km or outside 2km)? :roll:

My advice is School Q. Today is the last day of Phase 2A2.

I strongly suggest you register for School Q today!

Reason being if School P is far from your house (>2km), it means even if you are in P2B, you may end up balloting / not even having a chance if there are more applicants within the 1km or 1-2km. You can monitor School P's # for P2B, and ultimately, if you really decide to take up School P, you can still give up place in School Q to do so. This is a typical KS attitude, but better to have a bird at hand, then to suddenly realise both has flown away!

For young kids, better to be nearer house than further away as travelling time can really be taxing on them.

It is the parents who are concerned about which school. To the kids, it make no difference! Don't worry too much, this P1 registration situation is not within your control. Cross the bridge when you reach there - make the most informed and preferred choice by then. Good luck!

That's why they are called \"popular schools\", right?

Always been the case. Just hope for the best.

I would be using address > 2 KM for Choa Chu Kang Primary School. What are my chances for 2 C?

Pls consider the distance. It’s better to be nearer to sch than to be far far away. I absolutely hate the idea of sch bus.

Dear Parents,


Does anyone has the registation history of HPSS in terms of numbers not %?

May I know which school u are refering to? I have the list

Hi sc88,

I'm referring to Henry Park.

[akroutray]

Appreciate ur reply. Actually I would be shifting to Choa Chu Kang next year around April. However, can’t use the new address yet, as the agreement says TOP in 2014! Though it is very close to South View (<.5 km), I am sure I wont get a chance. Choa Chu Kang would still be within 1 Km. My query was whether I can use my current address which is more than > 2 Km to get registered under 2 C. What are my chances as this is not that popular like South view? I dont want to register my kid in nearby school now, and then apply for transfer after 5 months…
