Hi, I am looking for P5 Science , anyone who wants to let go, please PM me at 9758 3714.

We have a boy who will be P1 in 2014 and he is Brazilian-Korean. We are a foreign family living in the central area but our home is closed to all these school.


After searching many things, we finally realize that it is practically impossible to put him in Anglo-Chinese Junior or Rivervally Primary School.

Is there anybody who can comment about these 3 primary schools?
- Stamford (1 km from our home:central)
- Farrer Park (1.4 km from our home:Kallang)
- Balestier Hill (3.8 km from our home:Novena)

I found out these 3 schools are not so popular among the local parnents(by the way why??? ) which can be option for foreigners…

We cannot afford those international schools because once you start, you need to commit till highschool and oversea university…Any comment will be highly appriciated…

One more thing… is it better and easier to register him from P1 or we still have the chance to move him to the local school when he is P2 or P3?

We can send him a couple of years to the international school by scraching our pocket…

Our family will live in Singapore for long term and my boy will probably finish his highschool education in here… So the best option for him is to heading to local schools…

Many smart and experienced parents, please give me some advices~~~~~~

Thanks !

Thanks for your comment!!!

Then, does transferring from other school to this school happen quite often(I guess even this wouldn't be often though...)

Do you think we can try to transfer while enrolling to the other school??

Hi Nikah

We are foreign family. My son is half Brazilian and Korean. The distance from our home to ACSJ is 1.6Km(less than 1.7 Km). Is there any chance for my boy to get in ACSJ? It is such a stressful work to find the school for my son and my family definately wants our boy settle in ACSJ… Any small comment will help a lot!!!
