Hi, just to confirm.

Will be there be a different to register in the first day or last day?
No first come first serve right?

No first come first serve. If demand > supply, depends on SC or PR, then proximity from school kicks in.

[Hiaweh]

P66h:

Fairfield have 39 Singaporeans within 1km and therefore

Likely to have ballot within 1km Singaporean.
Vacancy only 31.

This figure includes those that registered online?

Hi Oh My Gosh,

Thanks for the re-confirmation as that is my understanding too. I called the school to ask no. of applicants so far. I was advised by the admin staff that they \"will close\" applications if the no. of applicants hit the no. of available places. I nearly fell of my chair upon hearing that. When I probed again, the staff told me that they will not encourage parents to register if places already exceeded vacancies available.....applications still open till 1 Aug 2012....pheewwww

If the situation is that vacancies are already taken up by those living within 1km and the school wish to discourage applicants who are living >1km, I can appreciate the school's effort in asking them to register at another school since they will have no chance for ballot. But if the parent live within 1km, and knowing that the vacancies are taken up and still wish to register for a chance at balloting, I think the school should not actively discourage becos it's not a case of first come first serve. If they are eligible for ballot, should have a chance to ballot.

How about any update on Holy Innocent Pri? Going for the registration tomorrow morning.
