Hi, my parents whom are looking after my boy is staying within 1km of St Gabriel. So May I know what are the chances of getting my boy in? He is born in 2008.

Very good chances. But you need a statutory declaration (check with MOE) if you want to use your parents' address as a main caregiver. However, this only allows you to ballot within 1-2km even if the house is physically within 1km.

A better thing to do would be to stay with your parents and change your NRIC to their address. So it will be balloting within 1km, a guaranteed seat at Phase 2C.

If you are Catholic or grassroots leader or PV, then the seat is quite guaranteed at Phase 2B, whatever the distance.

Thanks Cherrygal!
Based on the recent P1 intake, no balloting was required for St Gabriel. Does it mean for all the phases?

If you go via Phase 2B or 2C, think you don’t even need to change your address. They even have places left for Phase 2C Supplementary. So apply by Phase 2C and you are safe.

Does anyone know if the buses from Yangzheng and Zhonghua offer services for kids staying back for remedials and CCAs, in addition to regular after-school service?

It's still good to be \"Kiasu\". Based on past 3 years' history, my DD school does not have balloting in phase 2b. This year, balloting takes place for those beyond 2km.

Hi parents,

Does any know whether school bus services in St Gabriel Primary have pick up from Punggol? or is there any contact to enquire?

[magiccastle]

For the school bus, i think it will depends whether there is a number sufficient and worthwhile for the bus driver to make the trip. I haved called up recently to check with the teacher and also with the bus driver. Currently, no such service available to send the children back after CCA. But I remembered completing a survey form asking parents on the the amount they are willing to pay per trip . May be in future .
