zac's mum:

Hi kcmamaj, is your daughter a Singapore citizen?

Balloting history of Katong Convent here: https://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/article/bedok/

No balloting at all, for *any* phase for the last 4 years, so U are very safe.

The last time balloting occurred was in 2013 for PRs >2km in phase 2C.

So there is no need to join alumni (you don’t qualify anyway), or do PV. Unless your daughter is a PR >2km then maaaaaaaybe u should be just a teeeeny tiny bit worried.

Yes, she's a Singapore citizen and we live just slightly off the the 2km mark. We also hope to go in based on the church association if anything. Thanks for all the advice. Really helpful!

@phtthp thanks for the reply. I studied in CHIJ Toa Payoh but we live in the East so hoping that joining the Katong Convent Alumni would help for Phase 2A (1). If this is the case, is it even worth to join the Alumni or should I go straight to being a parent volunteer?

Hello. .I am a former student of Katong Convent Secondary School. Would like to find out if I join the alumni association, whether my child would qualify for the registration of Phase 2A (1)? Would anyone happen to know? Thanks in advance.
