Hi,

I am new in this forum. I have a daughter due for Pri 1 registration soon and I understand that Ai Tong is one of the best primary schools in AMK area. However, it may be rather difficult to get in. Hence, I am considering another nearby school, Townsville Pri Sch. I would appreciate if anyone can give me some reviews about this school. Thank you very much!

6. Please do NOT start a new thread in this Forum asking for opinions about a specific school, or comparing across a number of schools. You are welcome to post your queries in the Area threads as listed above, which also have a poll that gives you an indication of what people think of the schools in the Area.

Chief, I suggest instead of merging, just change these threads to Newbie's thread since they are newbies....

jedamum, we have just disabled the ability for anyone to create new topics, just for this specific Forum. Members can still post replies to the existing threads, so hopefully, that will force people to read before they post when requesting for help for P1 registration.

I am also interested in hearing feedback from parents with kids in townsville pri as it is near my in-law's place and they are helping to take care of the kids.


I understand that there is no balloting for this school so is there a need for me to go to mOE and do the stat. declaration as I am staying in sengkang and using my in-law's address.

Hey, our situation is very similar! I'm currently staying in SK too and looking at Townsville since it's near my inlaws' place. Last year, Townsville had pretty good PSLE results so in case the number of registrants increase, I think it's still safer to make a statutory declaration so that we are under the 1-2km category.

Hi, an a newbie in this thread. . Only came to know abt hsi former thru 1 of my colleague after i go thru the P1 registration. I was the ex student in this school since 20yrs ago. Nnot too sure how the school is right now, didnt wan to take the risk to go thru balloting thus enrolled him into Phase 2a2


Beside the usual reviews stated below for Jing Shan Pri Sch, is there any more reviews?

- will lump all lower standard students together so students no motivation
- day care on premises
- focus on physical & aesthetics(?) growth

Pls advise. Thanks

Hi, my parents live near Townsville as well but heard that no stat declaration req…jus need to bring my parents IC on the day of registration…Is that rite?

[nat_mom]

Hi oncogene


No, that is not the correct. You need to bring one of your parents(preferable the caregiver) to MOE to make a Statutory declaration.

Hi nat_mom,


Thanks. In that case, i better let my sis-in-law koe as well cos she was the one who told me that it’s not req’d n she’s also registering next week…
