Princess Elizabeth Primary

[jamie999]

maybe there are more children from CCK then Bukit Timah.

it's ok. let's manage when it comes. PEPS's school hour start earlier and end earlier than most schools. Therefore, we may not hit with the jam.

Do you happen to know if there is any good after school care around that area?

I called the school bus. The journey from Bukit Timah to the school is about 1/2 hour. They have different school buses that cater for different area. So it should be okay.

Why he quoted me 45min when i am staying at CCK?? :gloomy:

I think it is the numerous stops the bus has to make for the students and so the durations are longer.

Hi, Is Princess Elizabeth Primary School accept Parents Volunteer?

How can we register?

Thank you.

[dadawee]

I don’t think they accept parent volunteers. They only accept parent volunteers whose child is already accepted into the school. Do you stay very far? or anyone of your spouse is an old boy/girl?

[Ball]

I stay very far. The only way to get in is to stary near Princess Elizabeth school?

Is there other way? I tried to use my parent address (Jurong East) but no use.
Will parents volunteer after the child has enrolled in?
Btw, is your kid study in Prinicess Elizabeth?

there are 2 ways. first is to get a property within 1km to join the ballot. no guarantee.
second is to go via grassroots for phase 2B. success quite high because PEPS do not accept parent volunteers for the purpose of P1 Phase 2B registration.
when your kid has successfully join PEPS as a student, then you can sign up as a parent volunteer under the PSG (Parent Support Group) if you wish.

ya. My kid just got admitted in PEPs for the year 2012. Father an old boy. yes, I guess the only way is to go into grassroots route. Yes, I do see a strong parent support group in the school.

Am also in difficult position. My son will be in 2013 intake, but now already considering is it "worth" to put my son in Rulang (my former school) or put him in PEPS (<1km). The journey can really "kill" the child. Imagine when they in P3 onwards, CCAs comes in, remedial class comes in. By the time reach home, already tired out. Much less to do homework.
Sign… really can’t imagine myself giving up such a good school and still need to ballot a place in PEPS with no guarantee. Which way should I go. What if can’t get the place in PEPS. Oh gosh!!
