Hi Needy,

Dear All, I saw this from “Balloting history” under “Cho Chu Kang”


"Those living within 1 km also don’t get a plc in DLS
I strongly disagree. I live just across the road (opp De La Salle) but surprisingly I don’t get a spot too. I believe that the graph given also not v accurate."

I can feel the frustration of the parent, but what’s to do? There is no guarantee to get in DLS even though staying within 1KM right? This was also the reason parents here were so stressful for the past few weeks. But for the parent who posted the above message, what you need to do is quickly search (or you already have) for another school and be careful when choosing it, do some homework and make sure you really got the chance to get in and no balloting is required for P2CS.

Yesterday I went to witness with my nanny & her husband. When my son’s name being called out, I was so happy & I shouted (not that loud lah) “yes”, then I quickly went to front to draw for the next lucky parent. Guess what, the parents sit behind me said: “what so big deal & shouted like that”. I felt a little bit dis-encourage when my nanny told me this (According to my nanny, the parent sound unfriendly also). Just like somebody pouring cold water to you. Anyway, I am not sure whether the parent who mentioned this was getting in or not, but I think for him/her “is not a big deal” either getting in or being out.

Hi Needy, heehee....ya hor... yr child got into SV.....

too stressed these few weeks, so I forget oredi...

Yes, we will all share our child's future eduation here in
KP whether our kids are fm same school or not. so, do keep
in touch with us ya....maybe we will shift to the forum
'networking for parents' of individual schools soon....

Hi Anna, I guess the parent who wrote that quote was juz
venting his/her frustration as I can understand the feeling
if I was balloted out too.

We should now look forward to our child's school life..... :rahrah:

Yesterday I went jogging and pass by DLS; they also posted the successful names on the notice board. Ha Ha! I did not bring along my mobile phone, otherwise, may take photo & show to my hubby.
I understand that honeybee & baby2momma got maid & no need to worry about the childcare arrangement. For me, I have to put my son to before/after school care centre, anyone here same as me? Can share some experience? Got anyone know the actual school time?

[baby2momma]

i'm actually thinking of student care too coz of little one at home

& if kiddo got CCAs, very troublesome for maid to bring my little
one to & fro to pick up my boy boy. my hubby passed me a
student care leaflet y'day which he said was handed to him outside
dls school. do u hv that anna? mebbe u can consider tat.

actual school time is posted on dls website but i'm not sure if
it is accurate or not over the years. prob we can call the school
to enquire.

i saw a few names of my boy's current kindy classmates & he will
b happy to know. so excited for him too.... :rahrah:
