Anyone SHHK members here?

Hi posting here to see any one can enlighten me.

My DS due to register in next year , We live just opposite Nan Hua Primary. Knowing this a good and super-hot school even we live within 50m might not have the chance to get in. But am actually still pining hope. I like the children there. Very well behave and the school emphasis on Chinese.

Also I’ve been attending church for 1 year now, my boys also doing the Sunday school in church. I have 2nd thought to put them in Christian school – Fairfield Primary.

I know if I choose to Baptist, my chance for my DS1 to enter Fairfield (2B) is almost 100%?
But am not ready for baptism being my parents & in-law are Buddhist. Being Christian heard can’t hold joss sticks and eat foods that offered for praying. If come to ‘Chin Min’ praying grandparents, what should I do? The other way is I heard church can also help write letter or endorse to help get in school. Is this possible? Can any long time Christian advise me?

Hi ksks3mum,


I think churches will only endorse their own members, and internally, there may be some criteria to issuing of letter. This, you have to check with the church you attend.

Personally, I would say that you should join the religion out of faith and not for the sake of 2B. I don’t think anyone can advise you on what practices you can continue to uphold if you baptise, it’s really up to your personal beliefs.

2B is never a guaranteed route - so you have to be aware that you may have to cater for surprises along the way.

On Nan hua, yes it’s a very popular school and staying even 5m away is no guarantee that you will get in. But within 1km, you will be guaranteed of ballot slips (Sg get 2pcs) - so there is that fighting chance.

Good luck!

Hello Everyone


I am a new member to Kiasu Parents.

I have just started going to church recently. Methodist church. I hope that my girl can enter a missionary primary school in 2 years’ time.

Are we qualified for Catholic schools under Phase 2B? or must we shift to near MGS to qualify for Phase 2B? We live in the east. What if I submit my application for PV and not selected to serve?

Hope to get some advice from fellow members. Thank you very much.

Regards

Lindy
