      [quote=\"soda\"]
      Contrary to common believes, girls in RGS aren't competitive.
      As least from my dd's point of view. They don't check/compare each other's grade/score .

      Err....this is not what i heard from my niece when she was in RGS (btw, she is now in RI (yr 6)...
      soda:
      Also, everyone receives gifted education in RGS. I believes there're gifted classes and normal classes in NYGH.
      Generally, there is not much of difference between sbge classes and the rest of classes in an IP sec sch...
      moreover, it is only for 1st 2 yrs.....
      when comes to 3 rd yr, all will be mixed, depending of their subj combo....

      Actually, i would say we are pretty competitive. Competition is inevitable in any school, be it the worst or best. There's always someone trying to be better than the other. RG competition is tough too, but majority are just concerned about how well they are faring, like comparing to others. They don't really engage in backstabbing/stealing notes/hating etc.

      And also, RG does not place strong emphasis on GE classes. We don't even call ourselves SBGE. We are treated like everyone else. Same teachers, same syllabus, same programs. By the time yr 3 comes, it doesn't matter if you were SBGE in lower sec. I have many non-SBGE classmates faring really well now too.[/quote]Ahhh really? My class is not competitive at all... in fact, we share all our notes! Well, there are a few competitive ones but the majority of us help each other. We don't care about our marks. Well, that's for our class at least.

        Uniform questions -

        1. What length should the culottes be? Same length as the pinafore or shorter?
        2. Do girls wear T-shirts all day on PE days? Or do they go to school in blouse, change to T-shirt and change back again?
        3. Do they wear T-short and culottes all day on Wednesdays? No need to change back and forth?
        4. Where to buy the school tie? I forgot to ask at B&B when I was there.

        Thanks!

          Go to sch in pe t shirt n change to blouse after pe.

          3. Do they wear T-short and culottes all day on Wednesdays? No need to change back and forth? I think only on day with hse practise they need to wear t shirt n culottes all day. Check calendar on the dates for hse practise.

          4. Where to buy the school tie? I forgot to ask at B&B when I was there.
          Buy it fr b n b.
          Thanks!

              Thanks! Looks like I need to make another trip to B&B - I believe she will need the tie on Monday morning? No time to find out where the prefects' room is!

Best to purchase it in the morning when the prefects are around.
