[Bukit Timah] Primary Schools

[kiasumommy]

Hi everyone


I have recently just moved back to Singapore after living abroad for 20 years so please forgive my ignorance.

I used to go to Anglo Chinese juniour college. Will my daughter have any form of priorites to enter MGS since it has affiliation with it? Or, it only works if I have a boy to enter ACS school? I am a bit confused here. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Although they are in the same \"family\"...no priority

Hi


If I have a boy, will he then have priority to enter ACS or not at all?

Thanks again!

... We are contemplating between NYPS and SCGS - nyps because of parents' affiliation and scgs because of < 1 km residence, so we suppose our chances of getting into either one should be pretty similar. We are torn between the two...

There is no dilemma. Go for NYPS, which is the sure thing for you. Spend your time worrying about preparing your kids to go to P1, and NOT on getting another equivalent school that is too close to call, anyway.

thanks Chief!!!

lims, pls read the sticky thread which I posted earlier to calcuate when u should write in to PV in PHPS. U can call up the school to specifically ask which areas they are looking for in their PVs.


kiasumommy, the answer is no. Unless ur husb attended acs before.

Chief, how come I recieved an email notification saying I have not logged into this site since Dec 2008? :?

Sigh... I think I finally figured out what is causing that problem... the messages are being sent from our old US-based server that we are using for our beta-testing :stupid:

Anyway, anyone who reported to us about receiving such a message gets 100 KiasuPoints credited to their account, if that email is attached with your report. Quick way of getting KPs without doing much

Hi hi


It’s me again. Few mths back I ask a question abt my girl who’s into dancing (the mommies re so right,she is showing not as keen anymore) and I am in process of deciding where to stay.

I m now renting in the east. But will have to move to west soon to prepare for pri 1.

The ppty we bought is yet to be ready untill 2011. it falls within 1-2km to scgs

Was thkg if it’s advisable to move within 1km to increase chance since we re also renting now.

Just that the rental there will be more expensive there and we will be bound for 2 full years. My current place is renewable monthly.

What shld I do? Rent within 1km or cross fingers hope to get in? To scgs?

Or just continue to use the other address which is 1.99Km to sch (verified with sch) and hope balloting numbers lower as 2003 Is SARS year

My hair has dropped so much since my last posting. Over this worry. Btw any mommy has solutn to grow bk hair?
Tx so much
