2010 P1 Registration Exercise for 2011 In-Take

[MMM]

mrswongtuition:

At that time, they had a 'pre-primary' which my mum enrolled my brother & he was automatically in for P1 registration (that was many donkey years ago).

Wow... imagine if such practise still exists. I think KSP will waitlist for a place even before the mother is pregnant :roll:

Was hestiating whether to register her to Hong Wen School or not since I'm a old girl from this school. If i'm not wrong i should be in phase 2A2. Chances very high to get into the school right?? But... that school has moved to a place which has no direct bus from our house (I'm staying at Central). So transport is my main concern.

Hi Vez,

If you didn't join the alumni, yes, you'll be under 2A2 - and yes, it's practically guaranteed she'll get in. School has now moved to Towner road area - I figure it's about 10min walk to Boon Keng MRT. Not sure which part of Central you are in. Why not consider school bus?

I don't suppose there's any difference as long as you get the exact books the school requires.

I recently bought my DD's P1 text books from Popular since I have 2 $8 discount voucher from Diners...work out to be 26% discount! Saw a lot of parents buying textbooks with that voucher too.

Hi hquek,

Thanks for e reply… I have think of school bus also. But as I’m a FTWM. My mil will take care of her while I’m working. I was thinking maybe in Pri 3 she might have CCA etc… It’s really not convenient for my mil to go there to fetch her back home as we are staying near Victoria Street.

Was thinking she might have to wake up very early to catch the school bus also.

Oh ya! I almost forgot that I have the $8 voucher from Diners too. But need to go find out where I chunk it? Thanks!!

Hi peapot, you're out of luck. The Popular discount voucher expired on Oct 31.

I understand that Pri school is very impt. Hope to enrol her to a good pri school also. :?:

Hi Vez,

My Nephew is actually studying at Hong Wen too .U can drop at Toa Payoh MRT and take 145 Bus (Takes around 10 mins journey)and drop off in front of the Bus stop of ITE College West ( Balestier Campus) and walk in passing by Blk 120 . There's one coffee shop(Mcnair Road),a bit further Blk , there U can ask them how to walk right in to Hong Wen school.Actually U can take a look around the Blk 120 and Blk 119 Mcnair road HDB houses, the school is very near actually.

If going back ,go to the OTHER SIDES of the road Bus stop of the ITE school (walk across the pedestrian bridge) and take 145 bus back to Toa Payoh Mrt stations/Interchange.

Hi,


my DD (3rd child) will be registering for P1 next year too.

We have 2 choices.

Either DS1 and DS2 school… Bukit Panjang Pri School, or my almar matar… St Nicholas Girls… I have joined the alumni backed in 2008.

A lot of thinking to do.

BPPS is a double session sch…
SNGS is a single session

I am planning to work part-time… ie, knock off earlier everyday at 3pm… so Single session will be better.

But… SNGS is very far lei… in AMK… and we stay in the West.
But… my office is near SNGS… so, mayb not so bad.
But…if I am on MC… still need to travel so far to send/fetch DD… (We don’t intend to let her take school bus as she will be spending too much time on the bus.)

Must think think…

Any suggestion from anyone ?

HI Emelyn,


If I were you I will register her to BPPS. Is her 2 brothers still in BPPS? If yes, why not. They can take care of her also.
