My son just managed to secure a place at FMPS under Phase 2C. I know COVID will make the flow of things very different but any tips about prepping him for starting next year?

Have you heard anything from the school yet about orientation or any other admin?

[Bertie]

No, not yet…it’s a quiet thread. Looks like we might have to form a WA chat ourselves! Lol

I feel like this is such an underrated good school after my research. COP for secondary is high and the alumni is pretty strong. Also good values and academically strong school. Based on my findings, as a church member, if i move <1km, my chances to get in is 100%. Can anyone tell me hows the school like and school life, teachers? Should i try for this school (move <1km) to get 100% chance getting in or try for MGS (also move <1km) but less certain of a chance?

I was an ex-Fairsian. I enjoyed my years there. Teachers were strict but good in a way that they would provide any help required. Primary school, they will allocate you into sports houses (Kinda like harry porter sorta thing). Then they have sports day, competitions and stuff. A lot of primary school life is a matter of getting used to. Teachers are approachable.

Hi,

Just received a phone call from the General Office to ask us to bring our kiddos down for interview? ( for Appeal of Transfer for my 2 sons | p2 and p4 (2021) Any idea, what we shall take note of?

Thanks in Advance! Merry Xmas!

Congrats! Some general suggestions (I do not know what questions they will ask):
- dress smartly (short-sleeved shirt, shorts, covered shoes for the boys)
- remind them to answer any questions politely and honestly
- remind them to be on their best behaviour
- same goes for the adults I guess :imanangel:
Good luck!

It can be just a casual conversation but it is good to be prepared to answer the following:-

1) Reason for transfer (reason for leaving current school and reason for choosing Fairfield Methodist)
2) Interests (academic and/or non-academic)
3) CCA (current CCA and CCA that he intends to join if he is in Fairfield Methodist)
4) Achievements

Be positive and show his smile.

All the best! :rahrah:
