Hi Luanee,
You would have better chance if you move within 1km of Henry Park since no balloting for within 1km this yr. I was rejected by NYPS for PV but still managed to get a place in Ph 2C w balloting, so, don't lose hope

Did u know this is the first year that HPPS has no balloting for <1km? And it actually informed parents of the balloting initially, 55 parents for 53 places. Then last minute they realised there were 2 pairs of twins/triplets (which count as one applicant actually) and scrapped the balloting!
As long as there is balloting, there would be a chance of not getting it. Of coz there are ppl who get in with balloting under slim chances, but I do not want to undego such stress. Don't think I am the lucky type also, lol. -
Let's say I'm willing to consider any property within 1 km...I wonder if we can print a detailed map to list all properties within 1km of the school? :lol:
Else, the most accurate manner is to first have an address in mind and go pay SLA for the search of the distance.... -
cheaper way is just all the Pr Sch to check if property is within 1km.

Haahaa...thanks. But, I have no property in mind. So I thought I am going to be very open minded so as long the place is within 1km of the school...
At least going thru classified ads would be easier :shock: -
VooVoo, note that some schools still need to ballot for <1km addresses. So best is to choose those that need not ballot for <1km traditionally. Which areas/schools are you looking at?

For 2004-2008 registration, NYPS balloted under phase 2C for <1km except year 2007. Of course, the chances are rather high, but still the risk is there...
