      [quote]I understand that girls with long hair have to pleat their hair in NHHS. For parents with daughter in NHHS, how long does it take in the morning?

      ha ha, i have started to pleat hair for my DD now (daily if remember), training to speed up and brush my skill... :lol:[/quote]Hi julongmum,

      Wow, you're so good mum as I thought to let my girl pleat her hair herself. So may be i also need to practise to pleat her hair lor.

      Anyway, still thinking want to keep her hair long or short to save time.

      BTW, may I know where are you staying? Me-Tmn Jurong

        May I know where do you stay ? We are staying in Woodlands and have known at least 3 are going Nan Hua. Maybe we can talk to some bus operator if can gather more staying around same area.

        Hi justsay, me also stay woodlands, son taking PSLE next yr. I estimate he'd be around 240 to 250 range so now researching for potential sec schs based on this assumption.

        So far i've been eyeing schs such as : catholic high, BPGH, anderson, swiss cottage, xinmin, yishun town. Never tot of Nan Hua since it's so far.

        Could you share the the reason you choose nan hua over other nearer schs ?

        And may I know what your other top choices are ?

        Thank in advance !

          initially must pleat for my DD cos she doesn't pleat her hair, only tie pony tail in pri sch, so she doesn't know how to pleat. maybe later when she can pleat, then let her do it herself. That's why I am also not master, must practice more. But I would say it is not easy, my hands feel a bit jelly or 'sour' in the course of pleating. BTW, must be 2 plaits hor.

          We stay in JE. Still considering whether to appeal RV.

            Hi julongmum,

            Must be 2 plaits ma? My girl thought to tie 1 plait as she feels shy to have 2 plaits.

            So you put first choice RV ma?

                Ya, 1st choice Nan Hua.

                In fact, I also wish my girl can go RV but her T-score below 250, so I think the chance is very low and didn't put first choice. 😞

                      Hi Julongmum,
                      We have also chose RV as first choice, NH second. Also considering to appeal RV if cant get in but my daughter now says she prefers NH to RV. Headache.
                      Btw, I heard from the girls in NH that 1 plait is acceptable.

                        during the principal speech on open house, he mentioned must be 2 plaits. I couldn’t have mistaken as also seeing all the long hair girls with 2 plaits le. Maybe should reconfirm again on the orientation day. Btw, are parents allow in the sch with their children on the orientation day ie 23 Dec. How long is the event? Are we suppose to get the new uniform and text books there on the same day?
