Raffles Girls' Primary

Jurong no school?

If you are local born Singaporean, can always try try RGPS in phase 2A…
Even for phase 2C, also try…as long as local Citizen’s kids get into the placement.
But still you will be surprised as a lot of FT indian and Cheena applied to be SG citizen for the sake of getting their kids into the school.

I came to know a Cheena couple who use cash to buy one apartment within 1km of the school, converted into SG Pink IC, applied the girl into RGPS. I asked them during orientation whether will they stay long term in SG, they said NO…it is just stepping stone for their girls to go to UK or USA next time.
I was dumbfounded, and sad, as because of what they had done, one local born singaporean girl lost the chance of entering into this school.

Pongplt, if you can drive her to and from school that will save a lot of time. Just a suggestion.

Yes, I heard that by car, if you don't hit the jam, it can be a breeze….

Means got to be in school by 645am. After that, some how, is the magic time when the jam / slow moving traffic will begin (and end at 745am).

Actually I believe HPPS is quite an academic driven school.
