I noticed they cut down 2 classes from 300 seats to 240 seats this year. Perhaps this is a transition to single session.

But honestly, I like my boy being in afternoon session... segegrated from upper primary. So he only mix with his peers and have their own assembly session and such...

HI…


May I ask, is it we purchase the school uniform and text book during the orientation ??

My gal just confirmed her place thro yesterday balloting. Lucky her, she managed to get in…will be looking forward next yr when she starts P1.

Hopefully, she will enjoy herself and fit in as well.

Congrats blushes!

and chichu, most schools sell both school uniform and school text and exercise books onsite during the orientation. You can also buy the text from Popular if you prefer (can make use of your discount card mah), but the exercise books, no choice - gotta get from the school. Need to bring along muscles too because you'll be carrying practically half a tree back home :).

Thank you ChiefKiasu.


My boy also got in thru ballot. In fact his no was the last 5 of the 80 vacancies. .. Me and my hubby jumped up like mad man and woman when his no was called out. What a nerve wrecking experience.

Congats to those who got in thru balotting. Uniforms n books can be purchased on the day of orientation itself. my dd2 will also be in HGP next year. Hope she enjoys it as well as her sister.
