      Friend of mine, daughter is good in both academic and many other talents, from RGS, but no morale values. Forget about visiting her parents during Chinese New Year, selfish thinking, is a good manager, able to deliver work's task and delegate works but emotionally and social skills are bad.


      So do you think she will turn out differently if she went to nygs? Or any other school?

      How a child turns up to be depends on many factors. I believe before & after RGS, she has gone on to a primary school, JC, university etc. Also, family upbringing plays a big part.

        At nygh, You need to have passion for Chinese language and appreciation for its traditional culture.

        Nygh or rgs is a good school 🙂

To attribute a single person character to the sec school she goes is not fair to the school (btw i dont have a dd in rgs or nygh)

              It’s also not fair to the parent. It presumes that the parent is unable to have any influence over his child’s behaviour and manners, which I’ve always taken to be the responsibility of the parents first and foremost.

                  Votes suggest an almost equal split.

                  If child is weak in Chinese, I suppose RGS is a better fit :scratchhead:

My niece is from RGS. She is very smart, well mannered & filial. She is a scholar & currently in SMU.

                      See some good example of lady who were from NYGS, ex-president Wang Ding Chang 's wife, supporting family, grooming and educating the kids and make them well recognized in the society.


                      NYGS- more lady like, a good mother, a good wife, a good daughter, more good friends not looking for status, very strong Chinese culture, more be a little too conservative in making decision as more emotion will be coming in.
                      RGS - good manager, good leader, good PM, must win kind of attitude, western culture, definitely will not get bully in the society.
                      My sis in law is from NYGS. She is not really a good mother or good wife. She prefers to spend time in office or with her friends. However, her sis who is also from NYGS & currently a school teacher is a good mother & good wife.
