Hi f11499,

How is your interview with Nan Yang? What is the outcome? Is your child born in 2006?

Hi Parents,

I have been selected to go for the NPYS PV interview. Just wondering whether anyone can give me any good tip of doing well in the interview?

Thanks in advance

Hi, All,

I have a K1 girl preparing to pick up a primary school. I was told that a good PV application would be necessary and of course some less than 1KM residence is also required. Is there any format which I can follow or some good suggestions even better? - john

Hello to all Mums and Dads,

Any of you have kids already in NYPS? I would like to know how stressful it is studying @ NYPS. While I hope to put my boy in a good school, I'm also worried that he cannot cope. I do not want to make a wrong decision in either way.

Hihi,

I have 2 boys and wondering whether to place them in NYPS (if possible at all) because it seems such a good school.  Is it a very stressful school to be in, and are teachers very good?  Do the teachers assume that all the pupils attend enrichment classes?  Must the child be very smart in order to survive in the school?  But how to assess whether the child is 'smart enough'? 

Nope, we decided to register her in De La Salle under P2C as for this year there are >100 seats available and since i am within 1 KM i hope my girl could get in without me going thru the "Havoc" balloting process. But I must say, it is not an easy decision. Heard so much good comments about Nanyang but distance is really a concerns to us.

"Touch Wood", if can't get in to DLS then i will just register her under P2C of any available schools in CCK area and put her under NanYang's WaitList for transfer.

Hi,

Just wondering, did you managed to get your child into Nanyang Primary under Phase 2C, within 1km?

Regards,

happened to my son too...he got to wake up @ 5.30am, have simple breakfast and take school bus @ 6am.  reaches home around 2.30pm.  take lunch, shower, do homework and take a nap.  And he sleeps @ 10pm.  Well, its a matter of getting used to it.  Not easy getting a place in NYPS...

Hi Mummyof3gals, I can testify to that. It is really tough having to wake up at 545 am and leaving home by 630 to reach my son's sec school on time. We were so used to the luxury of waking up at 630 and leaving home by 7 for the last 6 years as he was in a nearby neighbourhood school then... We are more selective about sec schools and that's why he's in a school which is a distance away. Now we have one more girl taking her PSLE this year and hopefully she will enter a sec school that is close to her brother's and then we may relocate to somewhere nearby their schools..to save time and energy...

Hi chiclil,

Thanks for the info. In my opinion to get READY by 6:15 is really no joke. I guess i will try De La Salle or move down to Bukit Timah area should i decide to enrol her in Nanyang.
Cheers.
