      Thank you. As DD has some other enrichment, I was wondering if it is worth the time to attend as it seem it will be conducted by some PVs.

        We were told by the Principal that the DSA training session in RGPS was first found and drafted by a PV whose headed her company’s HR department. My gal attended 2 yrs back when she was in P6. Personally I have attended 2 workshops by coaches that do DSA prep class (one was Paideia). I didn’t send my gal to any DSA courses, only let her attend the one offered by school. She only applied to DSA in one school. Though she was not successful in the DSA selection ( via academic route), the school session was a good prep. Eventually she got into that same Secondary school she "DSA"ed.


        If you are targeting SOTA, then you need to prepare a "writing portfolio". I knew a teacher who specializes to guide students in this area. Do pm me if you need.

              below is a list of dsa talent domain, for 2019 p6 rgps girls (born 2007, year of piggy) to apply, into raffles girls secondary (for 2020 secondary 1 intake), via DSA.



              can login DSA MOE portal, starting 8 may 9 am, & officially close on 4 June 2019, 3 pm

              When you apply for rgs DSA, you need to prepare your personal statement. Not all secondary schools require p6 students to submit personal statement, when they apply for dsa. But rgs, request for it.


              2019 -

              - is the last (final) year, that rgs secondary still offer fencing DSA, to p6 girls,

              - is the first year, that rgs secondary start offering community youth leadership new DSA domain


              source of info

              https://www.rgs.edu.sg/admissions/admission-to-rgs/year-1-via-dsa


              rgs secondary, will shift to brand new campus, at braddell road. No more, at orchard road

                  No


                  Do refer SEAB 2019 psle exam timetable website

                  Psle dates for normal (basic) Chinese and higher Chinese, are set on two different dates, by SEAB


                  Normal Chinese : on Monday (30 September 2019)

                  while

                  Higher Chinese (the final last paper, for psle) :
                  on Wednesday (2 October 2019)


                  On both these two separate dates -

                  Paper 1 (zuowen) start at 8.15 am

                  Paper 2 will start at 10.15 am (after recess)

                  In case of traffic jam on these days or mrt breakdown, please ensure that your child is punctual, for psle national exam

                      Yes, in fact my gal in P3 no longer do HMT this year by default. They will only be offered HMT in P4 based on your MT result in P3.
