[quote=\"Sun_2010\"]a bit OT,

Has anyone any experience with menstrual cup?

Yes. Erm, sorry, never going back there.

What on earth are those?
You're making me curious![/quote]I just bought 1, going to try it out next month!
Bought it from an online store here.

Where do you live? There should be vacancies available but they may not be anywhere near your home. My friend’s son was posted to Sembawang primary and they live at west coast. MOE’s decision is final, they had no choice and will be moving closer to the school.

Singapore does not allow for dual citizenship. Foreigners who renounce their own citizenship to become Singaporeans are here either for the long haul to set their roots down or they are here for a few years before renouncing their sg citizenship to be US/ Canadians citizens. Certainly not for something as frivolous as primary 1 registration. Their home country is under no obligation to welcome them back either.

Praise and thank God!! My dd got balloted into PHPPS!!!

Congrats!

I visited twinks 3 years ago, it’s under MMI

right? It was disorganized and they were severely understaffed. They refused to let me see the kitchen cos it had not been cleaned up yet. Red flags went up all around. Things might be different now but it’s important that you make a visit and judge for yourself.

My kid is at Mindchamps at tanglin road, so far so good. Am happy with the level of care as well as the curriculum.

RGPS will become the default last resort for parents of girls aiming at Pei Hwa, MGS, NYPS and SCGS should the numbers get scary for those schools on day 3. Movement at RGPS will be quite frantic at the last hour. Don’t be caught out and end up late for registration. So be prepared!

Hi parents, really in need of ur advice..

Pei Hwa phase 2c vacancy left 40 and within 1km away from my house, please advise should I give it a try or just go for my 2nd choice which is RGPS ( left 102 vacancies ) but more than 2km .
Please help me,, seriously in dilemma.. Any experiences parent to advise me??

Thanks

Hmm tough one... You'll have to monitor on the last day of registration and decide. Call up or station yourself and husband at either school to find out exact numbers. Rgps will ballot at > 2km for sure. Ph will probably ballot at 1km. Your chances could still be higher at Ph with 40 vacancies. That's more than what they had last yr.

Within 1km to rgps. Currently registered under 2b in another school. Keeping fingers crossed we can get in to rgps smoothly.... Been planning for that since earlier the yr. Hope with the no of vacancies this yr we stand a good chance.

Not to worry, within 1km with so many vacancies, your place is confirmed
The population density that stretch of dunearn road is not high.

Hi


Need some advice. I am within 1 km to MGS and Pei Hwa under Phase 2C. I have a dd. Which school do you recommend me to register or think I have a higher chance? Many thanks for your advice.

I would think you’ll have a better chance at Pei Hwa. All who applied in 2b got in so there will be no spillover competition in 2c. There are 40 places available, which is 4 more compared to the year before.

Mgs has 37 applicants for 28 places in 2b, and I’m quite sure the 9 who will be left over after balloting will try again at 2c. 28 - 9 more or less confirmed applicants = 19 places left at mgs vs 40 at pei hwa! Anyway, just keep monitoring. It’s great for you that you can choose between these 2 popular schools.

SCGS - 25 for now
