This post is just a prompter to any parent out there who does not already know that you must register your child now for Standard 1 in 2012 and 2013. The registration was opened on 1 Mar and for people to register within the month. I read in the MOE website that registration on 30 Apr is considered a late submission!
Check up the site. Figure out what you need to do. Most importantly which school you'd like your child to attend. Hopefully you are not too late for popular schools. I know that for some very popular Chinese schools, especially when there is only 1 or 2 in that area, parents queue in those schools as early as 6am in the morning on the 1st day.
Make sure that you identify the 1st choice properly as that is the one that is going down. Choice 2 is not in the consideration even if you have stated it. That was my experience.
Basically, prepare the following. If you are lost, just go to the school that you want to enrol your child in and ask. Bring these:
- Your child's birth certificate - original and copy
- The parents' IC - original and copy
- Marriage Certificate / Divorce Certificate - original and copy
- Proof of address that you reside in - latest original and copy of electric bil/water bill/cukai pintu/S&P with your name and residing address on it.
- A white envelope size 4" x 9" with 60sen stamp affixed.
Double check first with the school on these docs before you go.
Good Luck!
Cheers
Joanne
