Seem like ZDPS upgrading activites is faster than RMPS. Maybe ZDPS next year can go into single session?

Just to share my own experience, I'm within 1km of Zhangde and Radin Mas and I registered in phase 2B last year. I decided to go for Zhangde as it is within walking distance. After school started, I found to my horror that DS's kindergarten classmates, living next block, are spending 1 hour each way to take the school bus to Radin Mas. That's 2 hours a day . DS is very thankful that he is not studying in Radin Mas. Do consider carefully as all the time spent travelling can add up significantly over the years.

Its almost true.

Mummy of 2 - i think i stay quite near you cos i can see ZhangDe from my room window (Yup! im that near)!!

n when i bring my ds down to wait for his school bus at abt 615am (n ds is not in a nearby school - he's in Maris Stella) - i see the RDM n RVPS kids waiting for the school bus as well!!! I was like wah! how come you guys are so early?? They mentioned that they seem to be the first few to be picked up so thats why they are waiting for their bus the same time as me.....

something not right with school bus. If kids stay near to school, they should be the last few to be picked up. Ask the school why is it so ?

I can see a litle of Zhangde from my living room too

So I'm not the only one who is shocked by how long the kids have to spend taking school bus. I mean Maris Stella is so much further than RVPS and RMPS, yet the kids are waiting for school bus at the same time. Kinda hard to believe or understand

wonder why last year there's ballot for < 1km. From the stats, it doesn't require in the past 4-5 years. :slapshead:

hello vicki,


can ask you… is it hard for your kids to study at a school which is far away? i’m discussing about P1 registration with my MIL and she say to register nearby so that the kid dun have to travel so far… but but… i’m trying to think of a reason to convince… haha.

Both PV for Radin Mas and RV is closed for now… oh man…
