It was from Korea, and shipping was very quick 2-3 days.

Adidas - Adidas USA Online Store.
Local Adidas online store has pathetic discounts.
Adidas USA ship locally for free (Over US$50)

To save on the shipping, I bulk ship everything via Comgateway (Along with my other purchases from amazon, bang good and Tiger Direct (For items they do not usually ship internationally)

am i suprised so many registrations for this year..suprising Henry park not that much registration...

We were taken aback also when we saw the no. of registrations for 2B in FMPS this year. We were relieved when there was no balotting for those <2km as we knew of 1 neighbour living in the same compound as us but is outside 2km.

Heard there were 80 students registered as of closing today for the 55 places in FMPS of which 49 of them have to ballot for 24 places.

Err.. exact number is 49 applicants for 25 vacancies.
This is balloting for more than 2Km @ P2B @ FMPS.

There must have been an additional vacancy for phase 2b as last week i only saw 55 vacancy in total from MOE website but this week it showed 56 vacancy instead. So its like 50% chance for those who balloted.
Anyway, hope to see those of you who got in FMPS during the orientation.

I was rejected for PV at NHPS but my son got in to FMPS also as a PV without balloting for my case after we heard from the school today.

:congrats: to you!

I noticed that registration for Phase 2B at FMPS exceeds the number of vacancies available. Do you know if there will be a ballot for Phase 2B this year? May I also ask if you staying within 1km of FMPS?

My friend is doing PV this year but she's staying more than 2km away. So checking out for her what are her chances of getting in in the event there is ballot for Phase 2B next year.

I'm going for Phase 2c living within 1km of FMPS this year. that my son can get in smoothly.

There is no balloting for those <2km>2km. There will be 49 of them to ballot for 24 remaining places in phase 2B.

Finally, after 3 years of preparation, I awaited this day to come.


At 5pm, I called the NHPS and they told me my child is in (cos I am staying within 1km, no balloting) I almost wanted to cry....The joy....nothing can describe..... Luckily I only have to go thru one time.

Anyway, for those parents who have also put in so much and yet need to ballot, my heart goes out to you...All the best.

Good for u as my fren who PV at NHPS have to ballot. I was rejected for PV at NHPS but my son got in to FMPS also as a PV without balloting for my case after we heard from the school today.

janet_lee88:

Even if those staying within 1km & 1-2km make up 44, there are 68 applicants applying. Sorry rather dumb, 68 minus 44 is 24, meaning to say there are still 24 kids who will need to ballot right ?

I guess it's that since all the 44 places are already taken up, yes there will be balloting but only for the next phase. Pls correct me if i am wrong.
