Fruitless queue for all except the first

[Typhoonz]

Then that makes the 2 of us bad parents lor... You are not alone... Although my daughter is only 3 this year, I don't think that I'll go to that extent...

[Mivec9]

oh no there're so many bad parents...including me

[Typhoonz]

If it's a choice between a neighborhood school and the good school, I'll still take the former... If the good school is the only one, I'll of course try for it...

[Typhoonz]

So far the count for "bad" parents is 3... Anymore out there?

Hurrr....if im an ex-pupil of a good primary school, guarantee place for my 2 kids, but its too far from my current house liao. Toa Payoh & Sembawang. Have to spend lots of $$$$$$ to move house. Close to 100k cash needed.

 

If i choose to give up the chance and put them in my current house neighbour school how ? Like that im bad parents or not ?

[Typhoonz]

A bad parent are people who don't take good care of their children... Not sending them to good schools does not equate one to being bad parents...

[Icekitten]

Har...you mean if by balloting also must queue up to be the first one to enter the school and register your name for balloting ah....*faint*

Erhm....now talking about fighting for a place ma.

 

In your case, place already guaranteed. No need to move house. Just buy a car (if you don't already have one) to send her to and from school or apply for school bus, that's all. Moving house will only be for convenience, not to get a chance at balloting for a place in the school.

[Typhoonz]

No lah... Was refering to the Tanjong Katong case... Machiam like queuing up for a condo like that...

Oh...but its beri the far lei. Sembawang to Toa Payoh. I think school starts at 7am right ? Wahhhh...like that must take school bus @ 5.30am liao.

 

Or arrange for a day-care nanny in toa payoh, so that she will take care of thier meals + sending them to/fro school. I'll just drop them off/collect from the nanny can liao. Duno like this will work or not ?

 

Beri the jia-lat.

Good parents, sacrifice a bit more and wake up earlier never mind ma.

 

Nanny is a good option. Better than leaving her in student-care I feel.

[Icekitten]
