Hi

I would suggest you choose South View since it is closer to home and siblings can be together. For SCGS, only yr girl is eligible. Travelling can be a headache and the kid will be more tired compared to another kid whose home is closer to the school.

Actually u r so fortunate that both schools still exist. For me, my school has closed down, hubby studied in m'sia so my gal went thru balloting & thank god she got in. There were 60 places and 200 kids vying, imagine the anxiety....

Hope u find the above useful

Hey I agree with koolmum, the distance between school and home should be lesser. Canadian International School is a renowned international school in lakeside area. . Canadian International School is a renowned international school in lakeside area, which is pretty near choa chu kang as well.

SCGS being a SAP school isn't it a better choice than those of a neighbourhood school?

Standard is definitely higher.

I have been through this before with my eldest son, there were different choices of school around my area. I did a lot of thinking and decided that the best course of action is to send them to the most convenient location to make their already hectic lives easier. It does not matter where you send them to as long as they have the right attitude towards life.
