      To my understanding, NYGH places emphasis on both languages, as the P wants the students to be bilingual, so is not true that the girls are stronger in CL. Infact many girls whose parents are from China prefers English to their Chinese language as these girls have gone thru Singapore primary education. So, for those who still think that NYGH is a 'Chinese medium' school, it is not true. Being a SAP school, many good values are taught and of course the girls will learn about Chinese culture too.


      I guess school's location, accessibility, school's ambience and to some girls, the school's uniform play a part in school selection. Afterall, this year open house for both school does not clash, so is good to attend the open house and have a good feel of both schools. Anyone has an update of RGS's new premises completion date?
      Read somewhere before. Think 2019 ready.

      But that plot of land is still sitting there at Braddell untouched, seems like demolition and construction has not even began.

                that's fast !

                end of 2016 complete Extension :
                means this batch of students (PSLE 2016), can benefit immediately, as they enter Sec 1 next year (2017). so good !

                  if nothing done now to Bradell land, most likely delay

                    They can complete in two years from scratch

                      I find NYGH girls a bit more down to earth while RGS still has the 'elite' Rafflesian atmosphere...

                      You are completely wrong. Nygh is very good at their image marketing. Behind the scene, they are about themselve and their cronyism. Who they select is not based on merit alone, backgrond where you come from, which primary school you were from. Of course lastly, about their very bias affiliation policy Where Nanyang primary sxhool getting in with lower T score. If HCI practise no affiliation policy, why Nygh needs to? Given the fact that they have no problems of getting students. unless there are something they want to hide.

                        Such a joke. Sounds like Trump
