hello yyyy,

多謝你時常幫我這個煩人解決問題, 在這裡認識到你真幸運!

關於奧數的英文題目, 我嘗試問問我當教師的朋友 (雖然他是中文老師), 看他能不能從學校的數學老師中得到資料. 知道後再留言給你.

Hello,

May I know is there any mummy has received result from SIS? SIS said that around mid Mar will announce the result.

Good Luck

ckbee,

I am not too sure I am afraid, but I know of someone who were told that his kid has passed the interview, but there wasn't a space!...so I suspect that they pretty much interview everyone.
2. I have no idea as my kid is still in PY1. Maybe yyyy can help you on this.

Hi Thomastrain,

Nice to meet u here. If I remember correctly, your son is studying in SKH. My daughter also applied for SKH last year but didn't get admitted. But I had been following that BK link last year and therefore recollected your name. So your son will change to SIS if he is admitted, right?

In fact, my daughter is studying happily in her present kindergarten and the teachers are very loving. But I do feel that it would be easier for her to get used to the school from kindergarten if my aim is to let her join SIS primary. So, we too are waiting anxiouly.

So, again, hope that the children of all of us here will be admitted.

I was able to chat with Helena today and she said the admission result should be out by the end of the week.  So good luck to all......

As to the number of PY1 classes, I asked her on interview day and she said no change to the current 4 classes.

Hi,

My daughter has interviewed for PY2 in SIS and according to Helena there are very few places for PY2 (around 10) and there are priorities given to Singaporean and Siblings.  Thus, I could only hope...

Good luck for all the PY1 applicants.

Hi gogocat,
My daughter failed to complete the CIS Reception class assessment, she came out screaming/crying after went in the classroom with the teachers for 5 mins.  We were asked to leave the school right after she came out hence we didn't even finish filling in the survey sheets.

May I ask you why you want to switch to  CIS?

gogocat

Hi cellcellu,

In fact, my daughter is a small girl and we submitted the application to different Int' school in one go. for CIS we can submit the application form 2 years before the start of the school year. If my little one could get accepted by CIS, she could only go to reception class... I want her to be a small girl rather than a big girl in the school since she is pretty mature.  to be honest, I dont particularly like/dislike SIS but just pretty sure that I wont let her study in SIS secoundary school. I noticed that most of the kids in SIS could speak fluent english  but still SIS secondary school is  too new. Anyway, I wont feel upset/ overjoyed even if she could get accepted by CIS coz SIS is good enough at the moment.
which school does your daughter go now?

Cheers

good morning gogocat,

Thanks for your sharing.  I feel a lot more comfortable now   even though my daughter has a very little chance of getting into SIS...

My daughter is now attending Victoria (HH) hence she chose to interview in Mandarin which she has  more confident in.

Have you apply CDNIS too?

Cheers

gogocat

yes, i did appy CDNIS, GSIS and ESF as well.
didnt get accepted by GSIS, i think it is too competitive. 180 pupils applied for 20+ places...
I turned down CDNIS becoz "I" believe the chinese standard of SIS is higher (personal view only). didnt get a chance for ESF interview.
Although I prefer SIS more than CDNIS, I feel SIS is easier to get accepted than CDNIS.

hi gogocat,

I do agree with your views on CDNIS and therefore didn't apply this school.  

By the way, I was talking to the SIS's security guard in the elevator on the interview day.  He told me that he was working in CDNIS before and the discipline there was a lot looser than SIS which, as a mother of a girl, I do have concerns (but this is only one individual's comment)

I really hope my daughter will get accepted into SIS

Leisurefan

Good afternoon, everybody. Any letter today?

Any SIS parents know what the science practical test for P4 students is about. Is it a laboratory test or a written test?
