:congrats: :congrats: That is really wonderful. Ha, so many happy problem. But I am sure your DD has decided...

Ya, guess so.. but he is keeping me in suspense.... He told me to ask him after PSLE. :roll:

As long as he is happy, I'm ok with both schools.

But being a KS mum, I'll still be reading thru RI & HCI thread to gain more info & ask questions.

Any parents have news on Cedar Girls and MGS - Academic?

Just called up cedar girls. All COs shld have recd telephone calls by last Week. They will send out letters to all applicants-- whether successful or not by this weekend.

I have not received any news from MGS on DSA-IP. According to the office staff I spoke to today, they are sending out the results by post (not email) \"by end of this week\".

Need wisdom to choose the right school.
If follow his/her heart, they will end up following their friends.

Not follow friends' hearts lah :rotflmao:
As I talk to more parents, realize many kids tend to want to follow where their friends want to go...it's a 4/6 years course,so must choose wisely a school they really like.

At this age of theirs, they are afraid of being left alone especially when they know they are going to a new place. When they reach the new place soon they will make new friends and settle down. Their old friend may join another class and make new friends as well and soon they will be less attached to the old group of friends. DS has friend got rejected while the rest got CO to the same school, poor kid is now upset he will soon be apart from his good friends... :sad:

If you force kid to go to a school not his wish, he may blame you next time.[/quote]Kids tend to follow the friends I agree and we cannot force kids too but we have an important role to play to make kids understand their potential , learning style and which schools will best fit in.

My son too is worried P4 because of GEP he has to leave his friends and move school and now again at P6. so now in :? RI or NUSH or ACS I. but we last 2 is good. now we are nt going to talk to him any thing until PSLE finishes

[quote=\"Dino\"]pardon me, but I am still not familiar with certain terms used here.


Can any 1 enlighten what is the meaning of mainstreamers? what kids are considered mainstreamers?

Your DC is studing which level now in primary school.

For P4,P5,P6 there are 2 are 2 team which GEP students and non GEP students (main streamers) something like express,normal ,technical .

Hi Leeven,

My child is due to register for P1 next yr for 2014. However, as I have not much knowledge abt the primary school education system, I am trying to learn as much as possible, including primary school registrations and so on to prepare myself and child at same time.

So far, the forum here has been very informative, except for times whereby I may not understand certain terms. So please pardon me when I ask silly questions at times.

Hope all will get the COs you wanted!!!! I can feel the joys and empathise with the disappointments of the parents here, for I also want and hope for the best for my kid as well.

cheers[/quote]Welcome Dino. No Silly questions. I just want to understand what level is ure kid to answer accordingly.

And you fit for this KP site ya , started worrying now itself.

[/quote]Just called Cedar Girls at 11.14am today. They will send out letters and we will receive by this Friday whether CO/WL/Reject. There will be no phone call or email.

Isetan,
Is your DD DSA via Sports and Cedar called you last week? My DD is via Academic and the lady said did not call anyone :scratchhead: . Maybe you have special privillage?

I have no news for MGS so far.



Today is DDs pre-lim last paper, we are going out for a good lunch to celebrate pre-lim over, then go home and see if the snail has arrived from Bukit Timah...before we \"chiong\" for PSLE :boogie:
