Hi, it depends on the class. My girl in P3 this year, one day came back and asked us why we don't stay in condo. Her class only 2 persons staying in HDB. So you can see that kids are comparing such things at a young age.

Makes me wonder how did they know only 2 stay in HDB flats. Do the children go around the class asking each other?

So sad that nowadays kids at a tender age are already so conscious of their social class status..

Please chant doubly harder since the places are now halved. Hee Hee. Anyone thinking of balloting P2C in another school for better chance?

Haha.. please prepare doubly sumptuous BBQ since we need to chant twice as hard. hehe.. Besides tempura, lobster, abalone etc are also most welcomed
Jokes aside, I guess Bt timah pri does not need to ballot under phase 2c right?

Wondering if the PV will need to ballot this year?


Need to pray more than double, maybe triple or more
Imagine more than 50 applicants for 27 vacancy.. the thought of it makes me even stress!

My son is just next to me now so I checked this with him. For his class, their assignment is to describe a place they visited during the Jun holidays [can be either local or overseas].

Yes, it can be local or overseas. Unfortunately the assignment topic happens to provide another opportunity for students to compare.
Nevertheless be it local or overseas, it's the learning experience that matters. Gotta tell our child not to feel inferior.

I think we own it to our kids to let them understand that whatever we did/didn't do for them, we've done our best as parents, based on what we know. Just like our own parents have done their best for us, based on what they knew.

Anyway between staying in a condo with totally hands-off parents and a HDB with parents who're always there for us, I know as a kid what I'll prefer.

Hi does anyone know which secondary school do most of the P6 girls from Pei Hwa go to? Thanks

Depends on PSLE score and Sch Cut Off ....
26x Will be the 2 sch - One at BT, the other at Stevens Rd
24x to 25x will be ACS, NJC, NUS, RV, Cedar, MGS, SCGS, the CHIJ's, St Margaret, etc

ALL Will Aim to Get into the Highest PSLE Cut Off sch tt they can be Admitted, Right? (Or at Least, their Parents will wish them to be .... :evil: )

1. bats'wings ==> checked
2. serpent's saliva ==> checked
3. spiders' legs ==> checked
4. cauldron ==> checked
5. Pot of oil ==> checked
6. Book of enchantment ==> checked
7. P's hair ==> checked
8. VP's hair [as backup] ==> checked
9. witches' attire ==> checked
10 voodoo dolls ==> checked

Looks like we're all set to go. Erm,when is your balloting again? :evil:

Ok, on a serious note now.

It's definitely easier said than done, but try to stop ruminating on the balloting. In the end, all this stress won't make a diff to the balloting outcome. It'll only cause you unneccessary anxiety.

Well said.
My DD is probably too young to understand this now but in time to come I hope she will. As parents we would want to provide the best environment for our children to grow up, within our means & capabilities. That includes selecting a good school.

P & VP's hair?! 赢了啰! These are the most potent of all ingredients. No wonder the chant for phase 2c balloting works last year.
