Hi everyone

I’m new and so glad to see this web now (though a bit late).

I’m also having headache which to send my gal to, Holy Innocents (between 1 to 2km) or CHIJ OLN (<1km).

My 2 gals are born in 2002, 2004 and a boy 2008. My concerns were things like whether 1 session or 2 sessions school is easier for me and if I send my elder gal to CHIJ, i need to go thru this P1 registration again for my boy. My gal is strong in Chinese so HIPS will be good. But on the other hand, I also think that CHIJ english speaking environment will improve her English Lang. I’m under phase 2C for both schools, so if she can’t get in HIPS, she may even lost her seat in CHIJ, then Punggol Pri will be my last resort (also <1km).

I missed the open house visit for CHIJ, how’s the environment? Small?How’s the principal and teachers? I called up today and i spoke to a lady which maybe the admin, to see if any chance to visit the school this weekend, she’s not friendly and helpful at all. Give me impression i’m nuisance and she jus want to hang up the phone.

Is HIPS school work v heavy? Do they emphasize on work play balance and character building?

Thanks in advance for any information provided.
