Think both school almost the same. Their teachers are all being selected so will not too bad. The only big different maybe is the location. If this is not yr concern then both are equally good.
Frm the number of student register, maybe Punggol Green will have better student/teacher ratio.
By the way, you can email the VP directly. Both of them are very friendly. Can join their FB too.

RE: [Seng Kang] Primary Schools
Hi wiser,
Palm View or Springdale will not full, even you are > 2km can still apply. If you like one of the school then go ahead. There is school bus service, you can contact their school admin to get the contact. -

RE: Punggol View Primary
harr? today is last day…what is your first choice? Mee Toh? for Mee toh your chances is around 32%. For new school I do not think they will full. You can always try your first choice first, if can not get in then try PV at 2Cs.
But if your first choice is Horizon then you should go straight to Horizon… -

RE: Edgefield Primary
So far the principle look friendly. They do not have compulsory CCA for P1 and P2. No exam and no homework to bring home. They do have some exercise at school but usually should be able to finish at school, and bite size assessment to test for the kid at school. Actually I think this is standard and same to most of the primary school example mee toh and the 2 new schools.
The school seem clean and nice. Student care will roughly cater 50 places for P1 student. The kid will have their lunch at canteen and shower at the school and sleep at the current classroom (using sleeping mat). They quite emphasize on dancing, every level will get to learn different dance. eg:cha cha. I guess thru this dancing can build up student confident, social skill and respect. He mention they will have a graduation ball dance for P6 student. Every student is looking forward to attend it as they will dance at the actual ball room.
Based on previous balloting result, they normally only able to accept student stay within 1km.
Another reason why I consider the new school is because their school timing is start at 8am instead of 7:20am. Maybe we can send msg to each other to share more infor on this. As I guess this is not a good idea to discuss PR and foreigner issues here

RE: Edgefield Primary
Your neighbour’s daughter study at Edgefield? She like the school? Any comments on the teacher? I actually went to the breakfast with principle last wk. Everything look ok but just that their student care is using their current classroom for the student and may not have enough student care to cater all student.
I went to the road show for the new school too. What make me considering new school is because everything is new. The student get to enjoy the new facilities and get more attention frm the teachers as they only have P1. Both schools will have student care as well.
With the new MOE rules I’m thinking most singaporean with eventually get to enroll all their kids to Mee Toh and Edgefiled or Horizon. Will that mean the new school will have more PR and foreigner? -
RE: Edgefield Primary
Hi Kathong,
:D....actually I also thinking of Mee Toh, but at 2C think the chances are slim. I haven't decided should enroll at Edgefield or not as I'm also considering Punggol View. In term of result I think still Mee toh slightly better if based on 2011 PSLE. Anyway, result is not my main concern. I like Mee Toh has teaching student \"di zhi que\" and more emphasize on character building.
So the 2 new schools in punggol not in yr consideration list?
Read some \"not so good\" comments on Edgefield in this thread also make me abit worry should I choose Edgefield.
headache.......
