[Nadine]

Roseytulips, thanks for the information. Have been waiting for the soft launch of Westwood Primary. Just wondering how come my son's kindy did not receive the brochures :roll: Anyway, I called up Gek Poh Ville CC & they gave me the email address.


Really hope that my son will get a place there :xedfingers:

Jurong West Primary School is having their open house on 2 June 2012 from 9am to 12pm.

I have a question. Up to date, there are abt 250 applicants for PV for those born in yr 2007. As application date will only close 30th June 2012, definitely there will be more than 250 at final count.


If I got an email from the school to fill up 2nd round of forms and to wait for an interview, does it mean I am lucky to be shortlisted to get the interview (better chance to be selected in top 20) or they actually interview ALL that applied for this PV job?

Hi, if you are referring to Rulang, everyone has to go through the 2nd round of forms and everyone will be interviewed.. at least this has been the practice, unless it has somehow changed this year...

Good luck!

I have decided to withdraw the application. Hubby eyeing on new school.

Had visited the open house for Frontier and Jurong West Primary.


This information are for those parents who are looking for schools with before/after school care service.

Both schools provides before/after school care services. However, I believe the seats available are very limited.

Frontier Primary have 50 available places of which 20 are reserved for their current Primary 1 cohort. 15 places will be available for next year (2013) primary one student and 15 places for 2014 primary one students. If application surpasses the available allocated seats. Special needs students will be given the priority on a case by case basis following that balloting will be conducted for the remaining places available.

Jurong West Primary before/after school care service will be available next year 2013. It will be located at the first floor of the extension building which is currently under construction. Available places are 80. There isn’t much information available as they had not even called the tender for the private run service.

Lastly, as Westwood Primary is a new school that is ready for it’s first batch of Primary one students next year I believe it will also have the before/after school care service. Their soft launch will be held in Gek Poh Community Center on 19-Jun.

Does anyone know if West Grove is having open house and when that will be?

Hi all,


My son will be eligible for phase 2C in the area, and since i’m staying in Boon Lay Grove ( Construction in progress ). My 1st choice of school would be West Grove then Frontier / Jurong West.

so below are my qn:
1) Would it be a better choice to select Frontier PS to improve my chance.
2) Since Frontier first co hoc is 2012, can i assure more place will be available in phase 2C?
3) Any review for Frontier PS?
4) Or should i still go for West Grove in 2C ( 1-2KM) then opt for frontier in 2C(S) ?

Please kindly advise
