Dear Lock,


I share the exactly same feeling as you. My gal is also in P2. I also feel that OLQP is not strong academically but as I always think this is not an issue, there are many ways to make sure our gal can excel if they do have the calibre. I also think there are \"good\" and \"bad\" teachers. However, I have full praise of the girls there. Generally, they are kind and nice and they make the school a superb environment to be in, a reason which makes my gal always wants to go to school....

The dilenma for many parents being: What should be the most important criteria for choosing a school for your children?

To me, they have to be in an environment for at least 5 hrs a day. Most impt, I want my child to be happy. They must feel happy going to school and come back feeling happy as well. My gal calls me at 2.00p.m (while I am at work) almost everyday to report the things happening in school. I truely believe she is enjoying her school life.

Hey is so good to hear from you about the good environment at OLQP. I feel environment is important as children are so impressionable. Have just registered my daughter to OLN...can anyone comment if the environment at OLN is similar to OLQP. thx

Primary school admission so stressful nowdays....I think I did not go through so much stress even for getting admission to University for my self

Tri-mum:

I'm stay CCK and my next choice will be Yew Tee Primary within 1km. I'm actually prefer a convent school for my gal and this is the nearest and only hope and now by looking at the statistics, can forget it.

Have you thot of St Anthony's at Bukit Batok. Its a convent and my friends who have their kids there say its good.

No decided OLN over OLGC and got it. Yes hope they are in the same class. At least some friends to start with

Will contact you once confirmed my girl in what class in P1 in CHIJ OLN, just want to check with U, U will send your girl to school or by school bus? I heard that the school bus will come around 6.10 a.m., means that around 5.30 a.m. the small girl must wake up already.[/quote]Thot of school bus. Oh no...6.10. School starts at 7.15 am and the bus comes so early. Let me see what the bus operator says closer to school reopens and then will decide. Hope they come at least at 6.30. thx

My son is born in 2004 but I have been monitoring the balloting history of Maris Stella. My son is also excited to go to the same primary school as his best friend since day 1 in nursery class.


Lets hope MSH does not go into balloting for Phase 2B next year.

Wah this is really stressful. I was monitoring schools just this yr and need to register my girl this yr. However you all seem ot monitoring for yrs. Really stressful

Namie:

When I saw Maris Stella will go into balloting, I was devastated. I told my son, next year I may not register him for Maris Stella in case he can't get in. He was upset cos his best friend will definitely be going there (already has a brother there)

But it was really close. They exceed by 1 or 2 if I rightly remember

pwee:

Congrats Majella. I am very estatic as well. My girl got into CHIJ TP.

That's wonderful. Congrats. Your little princess must be delighted too.
