Hi Junemum

Oh.. Previously I saw from Kellock's history tat balloting wld be required for >2km. So which sch did they enroll in at phase3?[/quote]Maybe close :celebrate:
Didn't ask them after that coz no chance to meet up and chat more.

Hi all,


Please post here (to let me know) the date for the school registration. Last year, it was in early October.

All the vendors (shoes, uniform, bookshop) will be there and we want to re-stock on some items.

Thanks in advance

Hi nansk,


the date for P1 orientation is on 11 Nov.

[nansk]

Thank, Pigrabbiit.

Is there a date earlier than the orientation when parents go over to fill up forms, sign up for the school bus, get the stationery list, buy the books and uniforms (to be worn on orientation day), etc? I was hoping to go to the school on that day.

[Pigrabbiit]

Eh, no leh. So far, I only know that the orientation date is 11 Nov. If I know any other dates, will let u know k.


Wow, if there is such a date, can you let me know too? Maybe I can pop down to get some stuffs first rather than on the actual orientation date.

I'm sure the school will inform us on the registration date. Well, let's just share the info here whoever receive first

dear fellow parents,


I stay within 2KM of CHIJ (Kellock), any feedback on how the school is like? I read a year ago they drive the kids too hard, making them stay in school still 3pm everyday? i came fromSt Margarets myself and believe in all rounded education in a nice christian envirnment…however I attended the sec not the pri school so no preference in P1 admission…guess best chance is with schools close by…trying to decide whether radin mas or CHIJ better, any thoughts?

cheers
Fern

Hello Fern,


If you do not stay within 1km of Radin Mas, its practically not possible for you to enrol, basis on previous historic enrolment results.

The girls do not stay back unless they hv their enrichment, CCAs or remedial classes. The only day for late dismissal for all is on Fridays - till 3.30pm.

Fm what i see basis on the curriculum my DD is having, they are really emphasizing on an All-rounder. I wld believe this is generally the case for CHIJ schools.
Currently in P1 this year, they hv roller-blading, art classes and even teaching them on household chores like folding clothes etc.
This has, in fact, helped my DD settle well into P1.

Hi Nansk,

The registration dates are from 18-20 Oct.

Hi experienced Kellock mummies,

By the way, can I check if it is really necessary to attend the orientation coz there's another important event for my family to atten on that day, so I am thinking if my gal will miss out anything if we don't attend the orientation.
