Hi miffymiffy,Yupe. No compulsory . Just that my DD is
Rather \"Kia si\" lor... Lol!
Is your DD in P1? I understand what you mean......kids in lower pri tend to follow sch rules obediently as they do not want to receive any warning letters.
DD2 ever received a warning letter for not cutting her nails. Now, she'll always remind me to cut her nails. :nailbite:
It's great that your DD is kia si.....better safe than sorry....

Niccc, I think by next year you’ll need to starting doing PV as most schools require PV 2 years ahead of time. Wow only these 2 schools within 1km! How about look beyond 2km and maybe consider some others which are pretty good too like Kuo Chuan Presbytarian? At least after your do PV at KCPP, entry is guaranteed at phase 2B. Personally, I would be reluctant to do PV in a school where I’ll need to ballot and if don’t get in, all the PV effort will be down the drain. I know its a hard decision…

michyms, i too reluctant to do PV...actually wanted to registerred my DD to KCPP this year which is within 1-2km but was told will need to ballot so we decided to chose MSC since i believe this is good school too for my gal...now the headache is my DS...wow,need to start 2 yr ahead? so early eh!! I there are more school within 1-2 km like townville and Ang mo kio primary, KCPP..(can't remember the rest) but within 1 is only Ai Tong and Cath high which are super hot that sure need ballot...so sad right...i even considering moving hse now ...for my boy sake.. -

Niccc, PV applications will have to be submitted 2 years ahead. For example, Rosyth is already screening PVs for the 2014 intake. KCPP is safe only in Phase 2B or within 1km of Phase 2C. How about boy's schools like Maris or St Andrew? If you move within 1km, chances of getting in are fairly high, going by past statistics.michyms:

Niccc, another very hot school also! Are you a methodist and can get into Phase 2B? They are balloting within 1-2km in 2B and 1km in 2C, which means you'll need to move there to get a chance to ballot... -

Hi michyms,
Yes, DD1 is sitting for her PSLE this year. Aiyoo, feel so old already.
She's doing lots of past year papers & work assigned by sch. When she can spare me the time, I'll let her do some of the assessment books I bought for her. Many are still untouched. Will eventually leave them for DD2. Hopefully, the syllabus won't change too much. :evil:
I trust your DD will enjoy herself at MCS.
