[Yishun] Primary Schools

[Imp75]

I am a current volunteer in CF. You need to clock min 60 hrs.


According to past yr stats (since a few yrs back when CF got balloting for Phase 2B), only > 2km requires ballloting but past stats cant promise the future! Just look at the SHHK application this yr! Skew up the stats!

thanks for the information, radiantmum. ie. 60 places given to those <2km.


didnt know that CF PV hours is 60. minimum stipulated is 40 hours. so siong.

Going for the Phase 2C application next Wed for my son’s P1 registeration.

I was planning to register for Northland and if unsuccessful, then Northview.
I stay within 1 km of Northland and Northview is just 2 blocks away.

From the stats, it seems that Northland has 91 place left for Phase 2C. What I don’t understand is that why Northland’s Phase 2C APP rate can range from 100+ to 300+ for the past year. I am crossing my fingers that it will be 100+ this year.

Can anyone advice on the school facilities and activities for Northland and Northview?
I was from St Nicholas and the school had very good facilities, big library, computer facilities and lotsa CCA. Not very familiar with neighbourhood schools. Is Northland and Northview’s environment very far apart? I heard Northview is quite good also. Any views?

Oh yah, forgot to ask … where do we park if we drive? Will it be very jam? I heard from my friend that many people during phase 2 C.

I am looking for Kitty who PM me. Can you please reply to me or PM me? Thanks.

Could anybody help, my cousin’s daughter did not get balloted into Northland pri sch this morning, I am trying to help her with Phase 2C Sup with other choices in Yishun, as she is a single mum.


We are looking at Yishun Pri and Ahmad Ibrahim sch and Northveiw. Which sch is better in terms of acadamic acheivment, teachers commitment and sch enviroment. I know nothing of these schools, any parents care to share their experiences.
Thks

Hi,


I’m new here too. Just started to look into P1 matters for my boy who is born in 2005 and I’m surprised that a lot of PV registration has closed. Never tot that I’m late in looking at such matters until now.

Called Chong Fu (CF) just now to try my luck since PV application was closed last month but received an unpleasant "Closed… Sorry" :x

Have a couple of questions, hopefully some kind souls can help me with them:

1) What are the chances of transferring into CF later on if my child gets posted to another school?

2) For transfer cases, do they look at the location of where u stay?

3) My mum who stays in Yishun is currently the caregiver for my children. So before I submit any PV application, must I go to MOE to do this declaration thingy?

i have a questiong here for Chong Fu:

1)heard that the school is going renovate, and change to single session…does it mean that they will reduce the intake?
2)if i stay <1km, and do PV for the school…it zzit very safe to need to ballot under 2B?
