good luck to all the parents for year 2010 registration for P1

chrislyf18:

Appreciate all the info...


Would you know whether there is any open house for the schools?

To be honest, I would not be able to commit a lot of hours as PV as working full time (as well as weekend take care of my baby girl) and the fact that my hubby travels extensively during weekday.

If I could qualify for Xingnan without PV, would be great!

what is your email, perhaps i can email the list of xingnan volunteer service for you by the way, for xingnan by 1km the vacancy already clsoed so for your case between one -two chances is nearly zero volunteer is a must i email you a list of the services you can take a look anyway everyyear the same no changes you can start now than finish slowly so far only xingnan got open house, if you ask me other school i will chose coporation only for the single session

the rest no comment

xingnan pv very easy you commit two hous a week by 6 months case closed my email is tohwei11@singnet.com.sg

hihi,


i am staying:

1) within 1 km from West Grove
2) within 1-2km from Xingnan
3) outside 2km from Rulang

I agree that the culture of the school is very important.
As I believe that character development is much more important than academic achievements.

It seems that I need to do PV if I want to get into either of the school due to the distance and popularity.


if i am you, i will apply rulang and xingnan anyway, rulang still got to go for interview in case unsucessful still go xingnan to fall on

west grove if pv not enough slots, priority given to pv staying within ikm first

Tohwei, what exactly do you do as a PV?
Are you working as well?

West grove 1 km confirm ballot chances 50/50

rulang pv chances much higherwhich year your child

xingnan confirm 100% shall can get

west grove and xingnan give you a list to tick which area to contribute

rulang divide in to 6 ares
eng, chinese, maths,science, admin,operation and cca etc

among all applicants chose only 45

these 45 is selected by 11 personnels in clude principal, vp and hod admin mgr and operations mgr
then job scope is given by them respectively
me working free lance part time basis

xingnan and rulang better for pv because the hours can be easily achieved
west grove due to many pv you can gonna ihr one week for canteen duties
i strongly recommend xingnan or rulang west grove i don;t think much although the principal ms teresa pang is a wonderful lady but i persinaaly prefered xingnan although i am more than 2km

alternatively if you want single session, go for corporation starts at 8am

chrislyf18:

thanks tohwei...


i will consider my options carefully...

any idea if doing PV at Rulang will guarantee a place?

FOR RULANG EVERY YEAR ONLY 45 VOLUNTEERS CHOSEN REGARDLESS NO OF APPLICANTS SO FAR SINCE YEAR 2000 ALL PV GOT IN WITHOUT FAIL

PERSONALLY I PREFER XINGNAN TO RULANG EVEN THOUGH I CAN GET IN RULANG THROUGH PHARSE 2A I STILL VOLUNTEER AT XINGNAN
THE CULTURE, TEACHER AND STAFF ONLY ONE WORD TO DESCRIBLE EXCELLENT ALSO IF YOU ARE WORKING STUDENT CARE RIGHT BESIDE TEH SCHOOL

CHEERS
TOH WEI tohwei11@singnet.com.sg

rulang you look for goh wee howe hod science he is in charge of pv services

chrislyf18:

Haha...sorry for the confusion..my son is born in the year 2004...


anyway i check with Rulang primary, their registration for PV will close in 30 June this year also....

considering between WG and RL for PV (or even both! if I have the time).

else...Xingnan...

Wat is your views?

actually xingnan got excellent teacher, and staff always so helpful espe in 2007 when the chinese teacher got the best teacher awrad pv is safer to got in as for west frove the staff is always not that helpful all the pv application is left to the PSC to handle

Hi,


I happen to bring my son to a friend's house. They have 2 children about the same age with my son. His behaviour catch the attention of my friend's who is a playgroup teacher, he ask me if I have suspected that my son have Autism. My son don't seem to be interested to play with other children, and there is some delay in speech.

I started to read up articles and research in the internet, and it worry me more. When I see that there are a few signs of Autism.

Here are some signs to look for in the children in your life:
Lack of or delay in spoken language
Repetitive use of language and/or motor mannerisms (e.g., hand-
flapping, twirling objects)
Little or no eye contact
Lack of interest in peer relationships
Lack of spontaneous or make-believe play
Persistent fixation on parts of objects

Is there any parent who have ever had this experience to share?

http://www.autism.com/index.asp

my son only start to talk when he is four and talk non stop no worries
by the way you can go to this web site http://www.myspecialkid.com.sg for reference .

i had written an article for autism if you are interested , email me or vice versa we can discuss in details

Hi All


can anyone advice what i can do?

The supervisor at my child's school, Hungry Caterpillar has basically evicted my child out claiming late fee payment and no vacancy but i know the class is very available- only 3 kids in the PM session.

she's not happy over some feedback i had regarding some of the school practice. Asked for phone no & gave mine to call back several times, have sent emails to clarify on some discrepancy on fees before i had to pay and suddenly given notice.

they are \"allowing\" my child 3 days of school this term so that i can find a replacement school.

am really mad at the unprofessional way this has been done & refusal on centre part to call me.

have informed MOE.

any advice/ suggestions?

PLEASSSSSSSSSSSEEEEE HELP.

Hi to all,


I am a newbie in this forum and is now very anxious about my son's P1 registration in Yr 2010 (he's born in 2004 and will be P1 in 2011).

After reading all the efforts that parents have put in for their kids' P1 registration, I am now even more anxious as I have not started on anything... except looking around for properties that are within 1km of some schools that I have shortlisted.

I am keen to send my son to ACSJ or Henry Park. Have seen somewhere in this forum that ACS does not accept PV. Does this apply to ACSJ too?

Also, does anyone know the application date for Henry Park's PV.. if they do accept PV after all?

Please enlighten. Thank you very much!

HENRY OARK FOR 2004 CHILD REGISTRATION CLOSE BY DEC 2008 GO TO THE OFFICE AND PCIK UP THE FORM PERSON IN CHARGE ADMIN MANAGER
