Hi,

Heard that Sengkang Primary will be doing a major reno in two years time. The kids will stay put at the school while the school is doing reno so I think a bit dusty and noisy. You may wish to re-confirm with the school.

Hi, I go thru the sch website -both SK and NS pri sch looks equi to me. But I realised that SK may be strong in sports and NS is rather active in performing arts eg the guitar grp got Gold award before. So if SK is nearer to your house then go for it. I feel that dist is very impt - 6 years of up and down to sch - must think heavy rain days too

Thanks gloyt! i might consider sending my son there since its quite near our place.. Im thinking of Montfort also seems like a good school and have some more vacancies though its quite far... Having a hard time making up mymind...

Hi education,


I already changed strategy and registered at Anchor Green (see my post on 31Jul). Cannot take the pressure of balloting 2 times. We are not so lucky like last year where those not successful at 2C ballot will definitely get a place at Anchor Green or North Vista at 2C supp.

But i really envy u all who might get in to your first choice sch lor.

Now i hv registered with Anchor Green , i think of North Vista.
If i hv registered with North Vista i will think of Anchor Green. Am i crazy ? :?
Anchor Green seems more academically focused and North Vista seems more on whole child development. But reporting time of North Vista is good. Get to sleep a bit later.

Rgds,
JSC

we have same thinking! Monfort is also one of my 2C choice. But I am still considering DISTANCE . And also get up very early in morning. Single session, children need to reach at 7.15am for silent reading.

So do u live near sengkang primary school? I registered my son at Rivervale but chances very slim so now im looking for other schools… best option is sengkang primary coz of the distance, anchor green and montfort also but quite far… No feedbacks regarding Rivervale thats why i haven’t made up my mind… Share ur views pls?

How is Meridian Primary school in Pasir Ris compared to Compassvale primary in terms of academic and people development.


Compassvale primary has to ballot and I am looking for an alternative primary school.

Hi! I think you'll get better and faster feedback if you posted in the correct threads. Just follow the links below.
