Luanee:

Gigue, just FYI, Yew Tee Pri conducted balloting last year, under phase 2C for those staying within 1km.

Hey Luanee,
Thanks for pointing that out! Ya. They require balloting for those <1km. At that point, my MIL was even suggesting for us to try Yew Tee Pri although we are like staying more than 3km away from the school! :roll:
So Gigue, the good thing is that it signifies that Yew Tee Pri is getting popular with its consistently good results...but also that you will have to decide if you wanna take this risk.

Thanks Luanee and Jedamum for the info and advice. Will keep that in mind.

Thks for the reply.


But correct me if i'm wrong, girl matured faster n hence pick up faster when in pre-school. However, when the boys are mautred, they tend to out perform. As such, given a all girl school, wouldn't it be better?

Anyway, if both schools are within 1km, hows MGS then? the results seems good

Hi shuting28, thanks for the weblink - have checked out the school's website.

If I'm not wrong, the website's been changed - the last time I checked, there were no links to results, etc. It is also more comprehensive now.

U r welcomed. btw, do u know if the school will be having open house? Had email them and yet to receive any reply!

Hi Shuting28, called the school. The receptionist said that the school does not conduct open house. I asked how do parents learn abt the school's learning environment, programmes, etc. She recommended that we write to the school's generic email (phpps@moe.edu.sg), attn to Mdm Hiew to arrange for a visit. Hope this helps!

If u look at NYPS’s stats, it typically conduct balloting for those staying within 1km under phase 2C. So looking at its location in Bt Timah, majority of its students would be residing in those areas, and houses there dont come cheap.


Talk about celebrities, I know that Chen Liping’s child is also in NYPS this year, hee…
