Hi, my daughter is posted to Peirce for 2018. Her first choice. Look forward to networking with all Peirce parents here!

Hi all,


When you withdraw from a school, do you need to show any documents like birth cert or parents IC? Tomorrow I will be standing by at the Phase 2A school waiting to withdraw while my husband monitors the Phase 2C school, which one of us should be holding on to the ICs?

The competition at Phase 2C is likely to be very high this year. If your Phase 2A school is close to you, you might as well stick with it instead of tempting fate. If you want to switch, do it for logistical reasons, and not because you think the other school is better.

To answer your question: You will need both parents' NRICs to withdraw, but you only need 1 parent to be present.

Thanks! My Phase 2A school is too far away but is a top school - Rosyth. I registered only as a backup. It is not feasible to go there as they don't even have school bus to my area.

Yes I will have fierce competition at Phase 2C schools near my home, Fairfield and Henry Park. I am really in a dilemma.

noidea:

Can somebody enlighten how to go about the strategy of having one parent station at different school tomorrow and withdraw about the same time to register in another school? Since original IC is required on both side, there might not be enough time to travel from one school to another to do the withdrawal n re-registration again.

Hi, I just asked my friends this exact question. Make photocopies of all documents (IC, birth cert, etc). One parent goes to the first school to withdraw, showing the original ic. The other parent stand by at the second school with photocopies of ic. He/she can register with the second school, fill in the form, etc, by showing the photocopied ic and explain that the spouse is on the way with the original ICs.

Hi, may I ask if there is school bus service from Rosyth to Dover Road? Does anyone have the phone contact of the bus service? Thanks.

Wow that's far .. Be prepared for very early pick up even if there is school bus service

Yes I know its far. I will send my son to school in the morning, it takes 30 min with no jam. I'm looking for going home bus service in the afternoon.

Hi all,


I came across what I think is a good article on SM and the treatment approach.

Dear all,


My boy is born in 2008. We live within 2 km of HPPS. I am considering applying to be PV.

Does anyone have any advice on the selection process? Is it very competitive? Are they looking for any particular skills? How many PVs do they usually select per year?

If I do volunteer and I live within 2 km, based on history, do I have to ballot?

Thanks!

Hi,


May I ask what time exactly are P1 students expected to be in school for afternoon session?

Usually my daughter takes the school bus but today I drove her.

She had insisted that everyone needs to be seated in school hall by 12.30 pm. Stubborn me did not believe her as I thought school starts at 1 pm and we are fine as long as we get there before 1. We arrived at school at 12.45 pm and the canteen area was deserted of little ones. Only the older kids were around. My daughter was very upset and complaining that she was late as she slowly trudged up the steps to the hall. I’ll find out tonight from her whether she was really late… but just wanted to ask mummies here is 12.30 the expected arrival time?
