Hi ran1977,

hi Ran1977,
since you show keen interest in both TKPS and Ngee Ann, i suggest that you attend their P1 orientation this year, attend both schools (different day, different timing) - ask them to address all the concern that you have ? Listen to the Principal's message, walk around school premises, have a feel of the school.

Tanjong Katong primary
Saturday (10 November 2012) : P1 Orientation (9 am – 12 noon)

Ngee Ann primary
Friday (16 November 2012) : P1 Orientation (2.00 – 3.30 pm)
