      Totally agree, don't hv to go to the secondary school. As what Augmum says, I notice alot of their capable students go to another secondary school. I'm hoping my older girl would fare better. Tho' the secondary school has its well-known reputation, the school moulds alot of journalists; newscasters; actressess.

      I was an IJ girl throughout, in my time the standard has dropped a little. But there's this saying \"once an IJ girl always an IJ girl.\" we continue to hv a camaraderie no matter how old we are. We'd not hv the energy to scream when we're old but may raise our walking sticks. Heehee!
      Nonetheless, all the best for the coming registration. Hope to see you all in the school.
      Thks for the warm welcome! Is your girl studying there?

                  Augmum : very experienced mom. You’re in a tougher phase now - bringing up a teenager. Do u wish your girl didnt grow up so fast? Means we’re old too!

                  Reginalcl : Its always the first kid enrollment that parents get stressed up. I’m lucky I have two girls and I chose the easier way out for my older girl. Hubby initially didn’t want to let girl go this school, citing alot of lesbians n distance n kept insisting on putting girl in our neighbourhood school here. almost fought until his colleague told him off "its a good school n I had to volunteer my service and went thru ballot to put my girl in. Ur wife has a secured place for ur girl, should go for it." I owe her big favor!! What I can say is my girl enjoys school and looks forward to school (but not exams)

                      Just check the 1st day of registration for CHIJ Katong, 105 vacancies, 56 registered. Anyone got the breakdowns on SC or PR?

                        Above highlighted is the most worried among all parents 😓 :xedfingers: , but not only girl school will become a les. Im from a mixed school thou, i have a few schoolmates that is also a les. I definitely can understand your hubby tots. so leave everything to our Father in heaven to decide...He has His plan for all of us. To be frank, im also worried, which parents dont? So keep our prayer going and He shall lead our path...
