Hi Ros!


Thank you so so much for sharing. That’s exactly my concern for choosing a primary school - caring & positive environment. I think you have helped me to make up my mind now. Phew!

Hi icebaby!


You sure are ahead of time! I wish I had come across this website earlier. Really gives me a dose of reality on how competitive and challenging it is to enrol into primary school.

And yes, there are many myths about priority registration if you are an ex-girl. Some even said being an ex-student of IJ Secondary will entitle you to register at phase 2A. But it is NOT true!! Checked with the alumini and principals already.

...my daughter is only 3 mths now. But I asking ahead of time...

:shock: For a moment I thought you qualify for our super-kiasu mummy award

Hope you get into Holy Innocents for your son this year... that way you can skip all the P1 registration hassle for your daughter!

Hahaha. Well, actually for my son, I even went to the school to see the VP in regards to Parents Volunteering when my son was 3 yrs old. Cos I didn't want to do things last minute...just wanted to find out the process of registering and what things are done. =P

If possible, might prefer to put my daughter in an IJ school.

Hi,


I just checked the CHIJ (Bukit Timah) web site but could not find their PSLE results. Does anyone knows about what is the school’s recent PSLE results?

Thank you.

Hi.

Does anyone has kids studying in CHIJ Bukit Timah?
I will greatly appreciate it if anyone can further elaborate on the academics & the school teachers?

Thanks!

Hi,


From what I heard. there is no CA1 and CA2 for P1 and 2. However, the gals have to take quite a number of alternative assessments. Thereafter, the scores would be taken into account for the report book…Alternative assessments take the form of topical tests, class projects, compositions etc

I would love to send my daughter to CHIJ (Toa Payoh) but it seems really difficult to get in even though we qualify for Phase 2B (beyond 2KM). My next alternative is CHIJ (Katong). I’m really in a fixed. I though Toa Payoh is the better one.
