Raffles Girls' Primary

[mwchua]

KSP:

I remember helping the school to count the money collected from the donation during my PV time. It was like average 1.5k-2k per class. But I feel we should not be dictated by the so called \"market rate\". It should be up to individual.

I see, thanks yup, it's the thoughts that counts.

I am looking forward to the day in which the girls will have an easier time at the hall after fans are installed, now it's super hot there...esp. days in which PE attire is worn the pinafore.

Just wondering usually for other schools PE attire can be worn by itself, but for our school has to wear over pinafore, very hot leh.....

Hi mwchua,


My DD is in the morning session. Are you interested in knowing the timing?

Yes pls

In fact I am much more interested in morning session timing. Thought of moving house primarily for the so early hour she has to wake up if we stay put at Sengkang.

Thanks much !

Hi mwchua,


Novena/Moulmein/Balestier[ Pick up at 6.10am
Dismissal at 1.30pm
Home by about 2.20pm-2.30pm

[KSP]

Although the school starts at 7.20, I heard the morning school buses have to reach the school by 6.40-6.45 to avoid the jam along Dunearn Rd, PIE and BKE. That is why every pickup point is moved forward much earlier.

My girls bus is white,bus no.37

ZAREENA:

i stay at Buangkok
bus boarding time 11.20 a.m
reach home - 7.15pm
heard from other friends if home not with in 2km to school the time spend in the bus will be 30-45min

Thanks Zareena, don't think our girls are in the same bus?? Is your van plying Hougang/Sengkang? Mine is a blue colour van.

Actually i am not so worried about afternoon session. It's the morning session that I am most worried about as the school bus uncle told that usually he will fetch as early as 5.40am......coupled with the fact that there is uncertainty with location of holding school in 2 years time, the timing might be even earlier.....

Many thanks for your all of you feedback and contribution towards my queries


Not too sure on the holding school sote yet, so that adds another level of complication to the decision of shifting house

Hi,


I will be registering my daughter for Primary school in 2011 and I’m thinking of Raffles Primary School. Could you please share your child’s experience studying in the school? Is it super stressful on the academic front? How’s the teachers? Does the school expect the child to know alot before P1?

Thanks
