I think the school tend to \"take it easy\" with confirmed phases. Eg. When I register for 2A1, I asked them when I would get the confirmation and they told me it's confirmed on the spot. The letter came very much later on (eg. when the registration process is over). It came with the orientation letter as well.I AM STIlL WAITING FOR MY CONFIRMATION LETTER FROM MBS for Phase 2A2.
Why are they taking such a long time ?
Then last yr, when i was registering under phase 1, we submitted the letter for quite sometime. The confirmation didn't come until just before P1 registration. I was concerned eg. what if the older child forgot to hand in the form or the teacher misplaced it,etc.... at least we still have a chance to \"register\". I remember calling the school for it.
If you are concern, call the school and ask when you can expect the letter. -
My friend 1KM.
I predict within 1KM , all can GO IN -
I call up the school a few days ago. They say all 2A2 accepted.
But I am just paranoid if I don’t get the letter. -

MMM: Thanks v much for sharing...sigh! My son hor is the scare scare type and so if he gets into the notorious type of school i will have problem cos very soon he will get bullied and then tell me dun want to go school...Maybe i think too much..too stress over P1 registration
I think we need to let the kids grow up and learn to handle different situation for their own survival esp in the future. Learning to role play about bullying situation,etc... help the kids to deal with it when they encounter it.
Unfortunately, my son \"turns out\" to be a \"bully\" on the bus as he is quite rough and big build for P1 (infact he is bigger than all the P2 on the bus). Within 1 term of taking the school bus, I rec'd complaints from another parent whom I happen to get to know. After the 2nd complaint, we decided to make it mandatory for him to sit infront of the van with the bus driver. The complaints stopped.
In school, his peers can get rough too. Eg. he got a cut on his leg and he said his classmate pushed him,etc... So I asked if it was bullying, etc... and if so, I am gg to call his teacher. He kept insisting that they are just playing.... So I think such stuff happens in all schools so the kids just have to learn to deal with it. Also, if you are concerned, work closely with the teachers to keep a lookout. -

Hi dizzyguy,
Fully understand your concern on the confirmation. It’s human nature to feel more secure after seeing the black and white documents. I recall when you register, you will get some record of registration from the school so that sb good enough for the interim.
I am curious to see the outcome for phase 2C. -
MMM: Thanks once again for sharing

Can't really comment as I didn't put my kids for it as I felt that Molin was already doing a good job even though it's only once a week. But that's also becoz we started early. Eg. my eldest only started in K2 but that was beginning the year. My youngest (nursery) has started going to Molin since term 1 this year.Hi MMM

I suppose with 2 hours of focus just on the language, it should help. On the other hand, I am not sure if there are other experts in the chinese enrichment class that offers such intensive sessions as well. Eg. in katong mall, they have Tien Hsia and Han Language. Personally, I like to go to school who are \"subject matter experts\" for enrichment. -
Seems abit quiet today.
Tomorrow is phase 2C. Every night the below website will update the Phases status right ?
http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissions/primary-one-registration/vacancies/
I think MOE will update it around 7+ or 8+ pm.
I think by DAY 1, 90% of the Parents would have registered
DAY 2 .... DAY 3 -
