is it possible to transfer to RI for year 5/6 after finishing year 4 at NYGH?


if so, how ?

Via DSA? I personally know a lady who transferred from rgs to HCI after year 4 because of hci humanities programme, which I find very strange. I think if the students are already very good, either schools will be happy to take, 捡现成的

Thanks iFirefly! I do wish my DS can do well like your DS.

Yes I am planning to buy the uniform as earlier as possible, can you please let me know where to buy it? How many sets should I buy? How about the PE shirt?

Oh.. So there are NO Triple-Science classes in RI (Yr-5/6) now ?

Is this the case in all JCs now, since Medicine course no longer requires Triple Sciences as entry criteria ?

none of the A level Junior Colleges now offer Triple Science.

Raffles Institution, Hwa Chong JC, National JC, Victoria JC, Temasek JC, Dunman High, River Valley High, etc : no more Triple Science.

They tag Chemistry along, with either Physics or Bio.
This combination (Bio & Physics) is out in many JCs : not popular


the only place that offer Triple Science now : is NUS High.

some one inside MOE ministry led & implemented this policy quietly, wef which year ?
(perhaps some MOE scholar)


going forward, into future -
can we change back to the past, where allowed to take Triple Science ?
unless someone working inside MOE willing to take up this challenge, persuade & convince the Education Minister.
Or bring up for debate openly

HCI does offer triple Science in JC. The students take Math, Physics, Chemistry, Biology at H2, and Economics at H1.

Hi YY1205..

You may buy the school uniform at :

Bibi & Baba
545 Orchard Road
#02-28
Far East Shopping Centre
S(238882)

Tel : 6732 7022

Fyi.. The boys have to wear school uniform to school everyday. On days with PE (2x a week), the boys will change into PE attire before PE lessons, and change back to school uniform after PE lessons..

I bought 3 sets of school uniforms and 2 sets of PE t-shirts / shorts when DS was in Yr-1/2..

There are many types of t-shirts (RI, House, Yr-1 Orientation, CCA, Class etc) but they are not sold at Bibi & Baba. So, for now, you may just buy the school uniform first..

As all the classrooms are air-conditioned, your boy may want to bring along a sweater to school, if he is 怕冷 type. My boy enjoys the 'coldness' though..

The RI sweaters are very nice, but the boys can wear their CCA sweaters or own sweaters too..

Oops ! I think I'm saying too much. One step at a time..

Enjoy..
