Hi All, fyi, just called the school, there will be 31 vacancies up for balloting by 63 PR children residing within 1km of Compassvale Primary school => approx. 50% chance of success for each PR applicant.


Vacancy for P2C = 110
No. of children registered = 150
No. of SC children accepted = 79
No. of vacancy up for balloting for Singapore Permanent Residents (SPR) residing within 1 Km from the school only = 31

Hope the above info. will be useful for those parents going for the balloting exercise on Tuesday morning.

Wishing Best of Luck to those participating in the balloting !

For my girl’s orientation last year, it was a few hours before her K2 graduation concert. So we ended up leaving after filling the registration and giro forms. For uniform n school books, we purchased on a separate day due to long, long queues. Some parents made their kids try on different sizes of the uniform :S

argghhh.. bad timing for you.. :slapshead:
so is it necessary for us to settle everything during orientation day or we can also purchase the school uniform/books on a separate day if it is too crowded on orientation day?

Yup, bad timing as the concert was at NUS concert hall.
They will provide you with a list on the days to purchase uniforms and books. So you don't have to buy them on orientation day. Bring cash
But if your child is taking school bus, best to follow up with the operators on orientation day.

When u turn up at the school for orientation, you will be lead to the school hall. Your child will go to the classrooms to do worksheet. After the school hall talks, you will go to the classrooms to fill up the MOE registration forms, giro forms etc. After you are done with the forms, can then proceed to buy school books & uniforms.
