      Just received the letter from Anchor Green Primary School!! It’s actually the carbon copy of the Application Form (yellow) we filled during registration at Phase 2C Supp last week. Signed off by the Principle, confirming that our child is successful in securing a place in their school Orientation on 21st November 9am.

            JSC,


            The success of the kid ultimately depends on more than one factor. The school plays a part of it but not the whole. Just a word of encouragment, the principle use to be from white sands primary school...she had a history of building the school well...check out moe website on the psle results....you'll see white sands making it's mark even though it only started in year 2000. Then again, school is only one factor of a child's success.....

            empresskelkel,

            Congrats on getting a place at Nanchiau.

            i oso quite like North Vista and its one of my 4 shortlisted schools. Reason for shortlisting Nan Chiau and Compassvale is obvious & i m wthn 1km and reason for shortlisting Anchor Green and North Vista is i got to see the campus and did not hear negative things about these 2 schools, compared to the remaining other 3 schools in SK(exclude Rivervale as need balloting & i m 1-2km).

            Only on the 3rd day of phase 2C about 4pm i was like mental block dunno to choose North Vista or Anchor Green after deciding to change my strategy to not risk balloting Nan Chiau or Compassvale. I was at North Vista filled up form but the last decision was Anchor Green being 1km should be nearer than North Vista 1-2km and also cant bear to forgo Anchor Green principal so i registered Anchor Green instead.

            After cooling down, i felt tt logistics wise North Vista is in fact better bcos i stay near Seng Kang MRT so to go NV is one MRT away but to go Anchor Green is by bus, LRT or walk which actually takes more time. And NV reporting at 8am is oso good.

            Think its fated. Comments such as so-so is better than negative ones.

                Actually, the parents I talked to actually have their kids studying there in P2 and P3. I believe that besides talking to principals and going for a school tour, it's important to talk to other parents to get an impression of the school. One (who is a preschool teacher) said the students were quite relaxed and parents have to take up a lot of the slack. JSC, if you still have misgivings, you can always put your kid name in the waiting list of other schools. Then you can obtain a transfer whenever there is a vacancy available.

                    My neigbour's kids r in anchor green. My neighbour told me that the Teachers r very involved. Kids r monitored on their progress. Those who need more help r given options of extra enrichment at school. Maybe it's a new school, that's why teachers r more involved. She mentioned dat comparing 2 her Kids former school in d neighbourhood before agps was set up...

                        I am also 1 block away from Rivervale Primary School and my girl did not get in. It really doesn't make sense but we have to accept it. I have applied for Edgefield Primary School and have to go through another balloting on 19 Aug. I also have not slept well.......can't wait for this to be over.



                        North spring is one of my back up choice when I balloted for River Vale Pri under 2C. This sch is actually not bad, go and take a look at the web site, I can see improvements over the years. I would suggest parents to consider distance when u choose either North S or sengkang sch ( both are alright infact)

                        I am thankful that my son got a place in River Vale pri since all the applicants ( abt 181) are all within 1km for phase 2C .
