I will just enrol Janelle with Hope Community Kindergarten next year while we shop for a new flat.
HB & myself hv more or less decided that Janelle will attend either Fairfied or Pei Hwa. HB thinks it's better to go unisex sch so future siblings can all be in 1 sch. Now it's to decide if we want to move to Toh Yi jus to try our luck w Pei Hwa lor
My Josiah hor, very talkative & playful leh. Open e eyes nia look for ppl to play. Then hor if nobody play/"talk" to him, he will scream for attention. Super like Janelle lor, see her nia e eyes will sparkle like diamond.</font>
<font color="aa00aa">Carole,

sweetie: hope bryan is feeling better.. no lah, ex rgps can't try henry park or nanyang using ex-rgps connections..
i also prefer that zoe and luke study in the same school but zoe is older and can definitely get into rgps cos i old girl then what about luke?? hubby is fr st anthony but that's at bukit batok which is so far fr rgps..seems a waste to take a chance for zoe when rgps is an almost sure thing.. and still have to find a place for luke.. i'm thinking of nanyang or henry park for luke but still not sure and no connections only my bro fr henry park but that's not relevent..hubby prefers that we just put zoe in rgps and then try one of the mixed schools for luke..
which schools are you considering?

Hi fushiastar,
actually was considering rosyth... but cant be guaranteed... even staying beside the school.
was thinking of rgps for grace and then maris stella for bryan but then again.... no gurantee.
considering canberra primary, a good neighbourhood school and no shifting hse needed.
Hi Yippee,
How much do you pay for the JG Edudrama class?

hi sweetie & fushiastar
Kaiser is attending English EduDrama at JG Evans. I paid about $465 for a term, think it includes the $50 refundable deposit if I am correct.

<font face="Book Antiqua"><font color="0000ff">Carole,
It will be @ Suntec City</font>
<font color="aa00aa">Sweetie,
Canberra is a ok sch but I just don't like the environment. I think it's better for them to go to a gd sch as the foundation is v impt. But this is my personal opinion lah. </font>
<font color="0000ff">Fushiastar,
I change primary sch 3 x due to shifting house. Studied MGS for 2 yrs then I was from Fairfield Methodist Secondary Sch so heard also got priority to Fairfield Pri.
Yes, Pei Hwa is a Presbyterian Sch. Nanyang is v gd. Henry Park used to b gd but I heard standard has dropped these few years.</font></font>

yipee ya ya:
that's good
is kaiser accompanied? zoe is in the accompanied class and every week she wants to bring the same pooh bear that my bro got for her for show and tell! so the class has seen it for 1.5 terms lol...
sweetie:
i intend to, only haven't decided which school..
since you already stay next to rosyth, why not pv there and try for it? it's sap with gep and is good..
i'm not familiar with canberra but agree that environment is important.. my bro who is now in uni studied in henry park more than 10yrs ago, at that time henry park was considered a good neighbourhood school. my parents sent him there cos we live within 5min walk away and my younger sis and i were both going to rgps so it was more convenient. he was always in the top class and in his graduating year , he told me less than 5 boys from his year went to RI. my bro is now studying medicine in manchaster uni.
my hubby's situation is similar too.. he was fr st, anthony's which according to him was also a good neighbourhood school back in his time and what he went through was the same as my bro, in the best class all the way and at p6 the top 3 boys from his class went to RI and they are now a doctor, a lawyer and the last is running a successful family busness..
so i guess some who study in good neighbourhood schools do well but not the majority..just my 2 cents worth
jenifur:
i see.. if you change pri sch 3 times, do you get priority in all 3 schools? fairfield sec is affliated to fairfield pri right?
yes, you are right, henry park has gone from not great to v good and has been slipping..this current principal emphasizes less on academic and more on cca.they are now building a new indoor sports hall..
how about pei hwa? how does it compare to henry park and fairfield though?
RE: grassroots
does anyone know how or which posts in grassroots are eligible for application to phase 2b as community leader and whether it is for all schools or only that grc? or where i can find out?
that's good

hahaha.... for KW I make sure his sharing is on different things every week. He is in the accompanied class - good time for bonding although now he is already quite used to attending independant class, even went for indept holiday class in June also no problem. He just got a place to start EduDrama this term. May do the Mandarin one as well when there is vacancy.

Hi Sweetie,
Did not ballot for Canberra Primary. My hubby was from the old Canberra Primary sch. We registered under Phase 2A2 (no ballot).
May I know Grace is in which class at My Little Campus? You interested in Canberra Primary? Which block are you staying?

Hi Sweetie
I'm staying at blk 418. very near you.
If you are interested in Canberra, u can do PV. But understand that got to do 40hrs before registration and another 40hrs after your child is in the sch. So ttl 80hrs PV.
How to you find Teacher Alicia? Heard she's only part time.

Hi all,
I was considering moving house to near Henry Park. Now after reading that standard has dropped, I am re-thinking on it.
Any comments on Zhangde Primary from parents whose kids are studying there
