So only 900 seats for non-DSA? My son got 268, how much possibility?
RI - 1st choice
HCI - 2nd choice
:?

268 = can go any school for your son except NYGH and RGS, even 299 oso cannot get in for your son

OK just submitted online S1 form and printed out the confirmation page.

7001, 3103, 7102, 7020,3047, 3204 can go and buy 4D tomorrow
and NIL, NIL,NIL for the 3 third language options.
Decided that it may be nice for DS to have 2 free afternoons hopefully.
Hope I won't regret this decision later.

Oh and find 1 day to go down to Bishan and pay twenty bucks.

I am so happy for you. You've made the decisions, and we saw how you progressed on this forum. However it turns out, I'm sure it will be the best. Wishing you all the best and let's :xedfingers:

Thanks.
Shall I start planning for DS2 in 2013 ?
Nah think I need a long break first.

I have a P6 age boy next year and still pondering whether I should let him sit PSLE, or even register for Secondary school. Looking at this zoo, I think maybe we shall skip.

I'm sure all the kids going to SST next year are all eagerly waiting to meet their brand new Macbook Pros.

The parents may not be that please with the $2k price tag though

Hi, am wondering if there is a need to take leave on both days, that is 21 Dec and 22 Dec. There are a few queries, hope someone can help to address:


a) what time will parents receive SMS on posting? This translates to how much time we have to handle and follow up on appeal if need be
b) how long is the sec 1 reporting on 22 dec? what are the dear children required to do at the new school?

The above answers will help parents to factor in how much time we have for appeal should the need arises.

Thanks.



Qn b is critical as it means Typical

To appeal takes no more than 10 minutes. Just fill in the form and submit. If the principal is around, go speak to him/her if you like.

What should we say to the principal in this case?
