I'm the proud owner of an apartment near Nan hua primary, but I'm all but given up on it. So considering my second choices. Two schools I know quite near are the Clementi Primary, Pei Tong. Both look so so only. Anyone know more info on them, or other schools? Tks.

Must be the school and not the living conditions.

thanks.


gelfish,

no. I’m doubtful of getting into it. I was too late for volunteering.

Can you share with us why you gave up on trying for Nan Hua?

I thought the chances of getting in is high, since you stay within 1km.
Maybe you should see this yr’s balloting result in August before you give up.

You can try clementi primary. I heard the teachers are very nice and caring and i was very impressed with the principal’s attitude too. Too bad she retired this year. Nan Hua so far has 60% to 70% chance of getting in if you stay within 1km of the school.

I didn't say I won't apply I only wanted to know what could be my alternate choices..

My apt v. near Nan Hua Primary Sch too but it seems to be v tough this year (surprisingly) even for people living within the 1km radius!


Talking abt 2nd Choice, Clementi seems like a better choice than Pei Tong based on track records. This school also seems like a second hot cake in Clementi. (Balloting req’d betw 1-2km)

Aiya, Really in a Dilemma now!
