I have the impression that keming is pretty academic.
Chij have affiliation sec sch if u want to consider it as a safety net.
Suggest u check out the ksp parents networking thrread of the respective schools to read more about it. Parents of existing students should be able to give u a clearer picture.

Thanks! Will do so!

when is your kid due for registration?

Bukit View and Lianhua is popular with PRs. not so with SC, so phase 2c registration for PR shouldn't be a problem....u can use this year's registration statistics as gauge.

to apply for pv for any schools, u can start off by exploring their website to see if they have any application form. or u can call them and go down to fill in a form.[/quote]Thank you, jedamum.

My kid was born in 2008 so she is due in 2014 for registration.

I am thinking about to be PV for Keming, as I feel it a better school. If I failed at 2B, I can still try CHIJ or Bukit View at 2C. But as Bukit View has produced some good results in recent years, I worries that it will get propular.... CHIJ is said to be a branded school so I am also not sure.

I just don't like Lianhua, as I went through their website, I don't see a clear vision of the school or what kind of values they want to build in the kids. I also see comments from other parents that Lianhua is putting a lot of pressure on the students.... Is this true???
Well just my own feelings, need to study further about all these schools.

I want my girl will have a more relax style of study..... Which school do you think fits best?

I have a girl born in 2008, and we are PRs. I am sending emails to the schools to ask if they have a PV program.


The only school <1km to us is CHIJ Our Lady Queen of Peace. I am concerned though as we don’t go to church, and we are planning for a second child and if it is a boy we need to go through all this again…

I am looking at Keming and St. Anthony, but not sure if even I joined the PV it is sure win.

I am hoping that if we fail in 2B, we can get a place in 2C with CHIJ or Bukit View without balloting… I am not sure which one has a bigger chance…

Then if everything goes bad luck, I am thinking of Lianhua in 2C supplement.

My problem is I don’t know if I should PV at CHIJ to ensure that my girl gets in the nearest school, or take a gamble to PV at Keming or St. Anthony, and finger crossed for CHIJ in 2C.

Anyone can give me any ideas? I am really stressed these days…

Hello everyone, I am new here and new to this country. I have just moved in hillview. I am currently a PR. I need to register my girl into P1 next year, but I have no clue for the schools at all. The only one school that is within 1 km is CHIJ Our Lady Queen of Peace, but I don’t go to church and not sure if this is good for us. Other school that is within 1-2 km are mostly too popular for PRs. So I think I only have options like Bukit View, Lianhua, Dazhong. Can anyone give me some advice? I do want to attampt PV if it is an achievable better option. But I dont even sure if I can or how to apply PV for the schools… When do they accept PV applications? Any constraints?
