Any opinions about Singapore International School?

Would anyone be able to comment on the Singapore International School? I would be interested to hear impressions, experiences, and any other information. Is it hard to get into? How would you describe the school climate? Thank you!

hi, i haven't been to the school myself but have contacted them previously to check on the admission process for my girl. basically, they start during the child's k1 year, which means the september that your child is 4 years old. You will have to apply in sep the year before, and there is an interview process. If you don't register the child for k1, the next registration is during Pri 1, but the child will have to go through written exams. As i am currently staying in Tung Chung, i have been to look at apts around the school's area, but i really don't like them. They are really old. I am still considering if i should take the risk and register her only when she is in Pri 1 to delay moving over to HK Island.
