CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh)

[mitr_sg]

Hi, all


I am now looking for a primary school for my daughter. She is due for P1 registration 2013. Visited the school and was told that it does not need PV. In this case, I can only prepare Phase 2c by moving within 1km. In fact, targeting the condo just oppsite.

How is the chance about getting into the school in phase 2c. If not, any chance to ask for transfer from other school?

Thanks

Hi

Currently, I'm staying at Trevista and it's still within 1km of CHIJ (TPY). Will stand a very good chance but if u intend to transfer her to CHIJ from another school, it will depends on the vacancy which I doubt CHIJ (TPY) will have any vacancy ....

CHIJ doesn't take in PV prior P1 admission.
As for transfer, the wait list is long. I thought of registering her in son's school first and then transfer after that...but was advised not to. I am glad I registered her there right from start.

How is the chance of phase 2C then?


I am planning to move within 1km. last year, 60 girls ballot for 50 seats. Not sure about the result for this year. What are the back up plan I should make in case I can not get into CHIJ. how is the rest of school at Toa Payoh? There is a school called Kheng Cheng.

Hi P2 parents,

Until now I'm still very confusing :scratchhead: about the Chinese oral. We are given a list of words. Are we suppose to make a sentence for each word or join up a few words to make a sentence? Are the girls tested on 造句? :?:
:thankyou:

Hi Berry,
That list of 词语 is for the girls to learn the meaning...I had terrible time getting mine to remember 清道夫，斑马，近视. Until last night, she still couldnt remember certain animals and I am worried if the topic of zoo is tested, she is going to lose marks. Thank goodness, no 造句.

Me too. 40 marks for oral is no joke. :nailbite: Now I just can :xedfingers:

I have known a parent that transferred her girl from IJ to Pei Chun (Toa Payoh Lor 7). Was told it is a better school.

Pei Chun is a sap school...so it teaches higher Chinese.
Parents have to assess their children and decide if their kids are suitable for SAP school environment.
