was your SIL there? coz if they don't attend means they \"forfiet\" leh

reiner:

asking these qns behalf my sil yah... my girl is in P1 now... @ my time the PV nos. is lower but still 90% are within 1km...

ya! the crowd scared me too :roll: you're 1-2km?

i see many still sign up after the 'warning'

mumof2angels:

i was there last sat. was shocked to see so many pv for nxt year. think quite a no. of them stay within 1km. sigh....

Ya i think the P was trying to say PR and those outside 2km don't need to try liao... 1-2km got risk, <1km might need to prepare for ballot. especially since PV this round higher. :xedfingers: can only hope for the best...


oh ya the P did say after the briefing not sure how many left hahah coz after the briefing we weer supposed to sign up officially. so after the 'warning' need to review the numbers.

hey frend, realise we quite similar situation. think prioritise distance would be good? its quite straining on the kids to travel so far? school bus also don't solve problem of having CCA some days then the school bus cannot fetch; u need to ararnge for alternate transport. ru looking to move nearer RV? i guess unles su thinking of moving, best don't subject your poor children to travelling so much for 6 years? unless u really can chauffeur to n fro?


the schools near your place ok or not? chances of getting in?

Erm I'm sorry all of you have got my intentions abit off.
I like my alma mater and So does my hubby. We enjoy the time we had in sch. The friends made, ccas, teachers and school spirit. It's hard for me to explain unless one experiences it himself. Esp during sports day, the cheering of different houses, and how we(mgs, acs and acjc) are one big family in spirit.
We want our children to enjoy and experience what we did too.
It's not about being elite jus because the schools happen to be popular and situated in prime districts.
I had no trouble mingling with the richer gals and neither did they look down on me jus bcos I live in hdb.
At e end of e day, it's the correct values we parents impart and inculcate. Education is for all and every parent has the right to want their children to be in the 'better' school if possible.

I'm so sorry if my post started this whole elitist issue. Let's end here ok?
Many thanks and apologies as well. No offense intended.
Cheers

erm.. anyone..? :idea:

Dear all I'm in quite a pickle and I'm just wondering if any of you experts could comment

I have a dd 2008 and a dragon year son. I'm deciding between registering my dd for SCGS vs hong wen. We had more or less decided on hong wen due to proximity and priority in future for my son but I just found out that this year would see balloting for PV <1km. I rather not see my kids future to chance so I'm relooking at SCGS. In which case ill need to PV at Saint Andrews junior when my DS turn but surely competitive coz dragon year. Or should I just chance it?

An alternative would be to put my girl in SCGS for p1-2 and switch her to HWS at p3 but my girl isn't really the adaptable sort. Any advise appreciated.

think 2007 (pig year) go tmore than 2008 (rat year)

they didnt release the figures. they say the number would be inaccurate coz still got all the huay kuan + grassroot numbers cannot be gauged

Just returned from PV briefing :yikes: so crowded!!

P says 80 pv but sure looks more than that.
Seems this year within 1km should also need to ballot :skeptical:
Looks like must reload at strategies already
Anyone else was there today??

Hi
