Hi,Im a new resident in Pasir Ris, used to stay in bedok…I will be sending my gal to pri sch in 2010…i have these three schools in mind…

1) Pasir Ris primary
2) park view Primary
3) Temasek Primary (bedok)

I personally prefer Temasek Primary and have been succesful in applying for PV,but my only concern now is the distance…im residing near PArk view( walking distance) and I know the popular schools in PAsir ris is pasir ris pri…what advice would you give?REali gives me lots of headache…

Hi karentyp


Pasir Ris Primary in Phase 2C for the past 2 years require balloting within 1 km, hence if you stay of out 2 km from the school, you will not get a chance to even ballot.

When you mention sending your gal in 2010 meaning you will be registering in 2009 right? Then you’ll be too late to offer PV for Pasir Ris Primary.

Hi


Day 2 numbers are out, surprisingly Pasir Ris Pri still has vacancies. Anyone eyeing that school but have yet to register?

Only 4 places left out of 106. Take up rate increased 15% today. It's very difficult for Pasir Ris to escape a ballot situation by the end of tomorrow. The question is whether it is for less than 1km or 1-2km.

Hi Chief


Agreed with your analysis but high chance for ballot between 1-2 km or even out of 2 km. I called up the school earlier to check, there were like 7 or 8 applicants out of the 2 km range so those within 1 km should be safe. What a great difference from the previous 2 years where balloting is required for those within 1 km. Too bad I’m out of 2 km…

Hi


I need some advice from the experts here. My first choice is actually Poi Ching, which is within 2 km but confirmed need to ballot.

My 2nd choice is Elias Park Pri. I’m not sure if I should simply give up Poi Ching and go Elias Park to get a confirmed place. However, looking at the take up rate for Elias Park, with still 59 vacancies after day 2, I felt I may still stand a chance in 2C supplementary, should I fail in the Poi Ching ballot. Really at a loss now.

What will you do if you were in my position? Any feedback/suggestions are welcomed. Thanks in advance!

Hi Barney,


I am far from an expert as I have just joined this forum. As far as i know, based on the hear say in pasir ris estate, Elias Park is rated 3rd in the area. Poi Ching has a history of 1- 2km balloting practice.. Personally, i cant imagine the situation of being not selected in phase 2C.

Its pretty tricky. I will not take the risk of Poi Ching if i were you. Can you possibly PV at Poi Ching? That will be best... Have you considered Gong Shang? Hearsay is Gong Shang takes in more PVs.
