The school is highly systematized and well organized under the guidance provided by the school’s principal (who previously served as Principal of Admiralty Primary School).

After school hours, teachers stay back to tutor and guide their students, especially those from low-income families. As part of the school’s efforts to prepare P5 and P6 students for the PSLE, the school collaborates with Raffles Institute students on revision and techniques for addressing PSLE questions. Lastly, the Parent Support Group (PSG) at Wellington Primary School is supportive and proactive, volunteering to help with school-related events and activities.

...Wellington is the second best PS in Sembawang, it is better than Endeavour PS.

Second best PS in Sembawang - based on what?

Understand Canberra is the most preferred, but why Wellington is the least?

I have done some research online, Wellington is the second best PS in Sembawang, it is better than Endeavour PS.
Will enroll my dragon girl in Wellington for Yr 2019 P1.

Any parents can share your view or experience?
Thanks.

sembawang primary should have in-house student care. Unless is terminated already.

Alright this primary school process been a pain but adios and all the best to all parents. And i think MOE should look into the 1km dist thing and make it even nearer. like 500m and lower.

Thanks for the kind reply:)
Most likely we will try CPS 🙂
Back up its sembawang pri, not too bad too since it will just be 3 min walk next time, distance being the factor.

I have a girl studying at Canberra and my son graduated last year. I can say that we are happy with the school. Quoting from my girl, "I am never bored because there are so many activities throughout the year…we like to take part in competitions because the Mr Wong (Principal) always say it’s good exposure and training for us and it’s ok even if we don’t win anything…my teachers are super nice…only canteen food not so fantastic!" Fr my son, " I missed CPS! …too bad I can’t take part in the next musical but I will definitely go n watch it…P6 teachers were great, especially Chinese tr, …it is not stressful even during P6…Mr Wong is much better than my current sch principal…"

I am not sure if those comments from my kids answer your questions. Do feel free to drop me PM if you want to know anything else about the school.

Sembawang pri will be less than 5 min walks from our future home while Canberra pri seems so hot that we can’t ignore it. But what makes it so hot ? Any parents with kids from Canberra primary like to enlighten me? Greatly appreciate any comment for me and wife to make an informed decision.

Is Canberra really better? Should i still try Canberra or try Endeavor? Endeavor should have 89 places for 2C compared to Canberra 42 places only. Endeavor should still be balloting at 2C but better chances.. Anyone can enlightened me or anyone in Similar position about these 2 schools? Who is performing better? i heard Canberra has a 100% PSLE pass rate. which is good... cant get anything about Endeavor?

Backup still will be Northoaks or Sembawang Primary. Havent decided on this yet. 1 step at a time...

1 week more to go....
