Fabbymum:

It's been popular in AMK all the while, pherie...good school and from I have known, is one of the vibrant school in this area...:-)

Fabbymum, I read that you've registered in the P2A2 right? Envy you. I dunno if it's good or not as I have just moved to AMK later part of last year. Choose this sch as it's just like 2mins walk away from my home. Din know it's so popular!

Hey tigger88, dun envy us...we went through many tough times doing volunteering, school hunting, house hunting, balloting for parent volunteer, joining RC, etc - hard work for 2 years before deciding for APS! I know it is the only school that offers IMAS2 program where students in P2 are selected to undergo some kind of talent development program for the next 4 years. Also, last year's PSLE top score was 272 and I like their approach which is more balanced between the Western and Eastern culture. My hubby and me also like the school uniform and my son? He likes the name Anderson because he relates it to Andersen Icecream!! :rotflmao:

Hey Fabbymum, do you mean that you went through all those PV, RC etc for other schs before deciding on APS? Wow, really put in a lot of effort.

After I shifted, I contacted APS for PV but was told it's already full (but I still went ahead to sign up for PV for my 2nd kid). Tried RC route too but was told that I have to join at least one year...too late for us. So no choice, gotta pray hard for P2C.

Ya. #1 is P4 in North Vista prim. At that time didnt know i qualify for Anderson 2A2. So, after failing ballot for Roysth, we had to find another school. North Vista just started so decided to give it a try. Regret, so not putting my others in. High expenses… and dont really like their method… but since she’s there for 4 yrs… let it be, cos dont how change of environment will affect her.


This yr my boy register SJIJ, hubby ex-boy.

Next year youngest gal’s turn.

I’m 1 crazy mom.
