        In today’s orientation, there are so many girls wearing head-prefect / vice head-prefect / prefect badges from various TOP primary schools. It seems like more than 50% of the Sec 1 cohort is at least a prefect. From what I see, SNGS has no lack of future leaders. 😂

            Almost all primary schools are represented. Many are from the affiliated primary, followed by girls from Ai Tong, Rosyth, Pei Chun, Kong Hwa, Nan Hua, Tao Nan, RGPS, Northland, Chong Fu, Nan Chiau, PLMGS, Holy Innocent etc etc. So many SAP primary school students choose to continue their next phase of the journey in a SAP secondary.

              For St Nick (IP), at Year 4 or Sec 4,

              2 are Triple Science classes, the rest (balance) are Double Science / Humanities classes.

              In St Nick (IP), same as (identical to) SCGS (IP), we do not use GPA scoring (grading) system for IP.

                For 2019 Secondary 1 students (born 2006) interested in taking up Spanish as a 3rd foreign language, note that Spanish is only available, offered at MOELC (Newton) branch. Spanish is not found in MOELC (Bishan).

                    Hi 2019 IP students,


                    Our St Nick Secondary pupil’s school diary (Handbook) inside contained very detailed Promotional criteria, specified at the end of (Year 1, Year 2, Year 3) IP course :-

                    - the criteria to be promoted up to the next level (IP), or

                    - to be Transferred across to the O-level track (if need be, in the event student cannot cope), as St Nick is a dual-track IP school.

                    If you have the time, you may want to go and read up the Promotional criteria (IP), found inside one of the pages, inside SNGS student’s Diary (Handbook).

                    Found inside the same Diary (student’s manual), are also information related to

                    the various types (category) of award, given to pupils at the yearly end-of-year exam in November, to All Year (1 to 4) IP and O-level students cohort (batches). May read up yourself.

                      One noodle dish or rice dish costs less than $2. A piece of fruit costs less than $1.
                      One recess break and one lunch break.
                      So you can probably estimate from these info?

                        Also depend on what food yr daughter choose to eat inside the canteen, because some stalls are not cheap.


                        Count the number of days per week, where yr girl need to stay back for

                        Cca,
                        Supplementary / High ability class lessons,
                        Higher Chinese lessons,
                        Project meetings team discussion, with fellow group classmates,
                        Prefectorial meetings or duty (if any), 3rd foreign language, before leaving for lessons by bus (taxi) to MOELC (Bishan or Newton),
                        etc

                        These will be the extra number of meals added in that she need to eat, per week, over & above the daily recess-time meal
                        where she consume.

                        Some children also eat breakfast in the morning, because they arrived too early in the morning. And when they see their classmates or friends eat yummy breakfast, they also tag along, joined in. Breakfast, is another added costs.
