Hi Chadax,
Yes, you can. I brought DS to the sch to buy the uniform & shoes already. DS is very big sized for his age so I hv to get it early and send the uniform for alteration.

Thanks Suaku_mum! Also received the letter today. Any idea what time does the shop open for the uniform and shoes?

Anyone attending the phonics/hanyu pinyin course? Still considering...

Hi


Anyone can advise when does balloting actually start for Phase 2B? On 22 or 23 July? After all the registrations submitted on 23rd July?
Which means balloting starts after 4pm?
THanks

First come first serve? Eg phase 2b 22 July &23 July does it mean 22 July people will get to be alloted first?[/url]

Precisely lo. Silly me thot SHHK will just provide the recommendation list regardless of vacancies. Then it is only for the school to decide after balancing their own requirements in view of availability. That is why I just don't understand the rationale for SHHK to decide on their recommendation list based on vacancies but thought they should have their own criteria (eg contributions by the members) :?

Thanks Grandmaster


Seriously, it means the system is quite ineffective because SHHK is not very helpful when it comes to offering information especially with the influx of calls just 1/2 days before PHASE 2B starts since PHASE 2A2 will only end 2 days before

But I guess if the system had worked in the past, it will just continue unless more members/parents feedback about this.

I cant stand the anxiety of knowing only just a day before the registration. Not sure if other parents face the same kind of situation as me.
:roll:

I called the school and apparently the school will only receive the letters from SHHK quite close to Phase 2B and only then will they send the letter to the SHHK member! And they also cant even provide a decent date! And PHASE 2A2 results only out on 20 July and registration for PHASE 2B starts on 22 July! 2 days?! Can school gtee that they will send out by 20 July and can SINGPOST gtee the letter will reach me by 21 July?


Called SHHK and they cant even say whether they have issued the recommendation letter!

TUG OF WAR between the school and the clan! :x :x

Makes me think why have the membership in the 1st place since it looks quite a hopeless case!

Thinking of the above makes my blood boil!

Any experienced mummy/daddy care to share their experience under Phase 2B with SHHK recommendation (letter came from school? or how do u know u r recommended??)
