Hi parents, I’m new to this forum. I would like to check is there immersion program at RGS?
If there is, is at what year and to which country? For how long? And I’m staying at Pasir Panjang, wonder is there school bus services provide from Pasir panjang to the new campus at Braddell? Thanks and merry Christmas!

There is currently one to Taiwan for y2&y3 girls for 3 weeks. But the program maybe discontinued (from next year if not mistaken). The school is trying to look for other immersion programs for the girls but nothing is confirmed as of now.

Best to check with school re the bus services. They have many buses covering many parts of Singapore...

[quote=Applepie21 post_id=1955152 time=1577154349 user_id=183097]Hi parents, has anyone facing a choice of choosing between RGS and NYGH? And how eventually RGS is chosen? My daughter is P5 this year, taking PSLE in 2020. Thanks!

I ask the same question last year...lol.

Hi peaants, so how is your DD doing in RGS? Can share? Is she going to sec 2 next year?[/quote]She is doing ok and going sec 2. I think everyone is going sec 2 too. Sec 2 will be a year to be looking out for due to streaming.

My dd just happened to share with me that day.. for foreign Uni, they recognise the Raffles brand more than HCI or any other JCs from Singapore, she has no regrets choosing rgs over nygh even though she is effectively bilingual

This year, I think everyone in Sec 2 is going to Sec 3 too. And don't worry, everyone got their 1st choice subject combi for Sec 3 (no min. grades or requirements). >90% of the girls chose 9 subjects or more, and close to 80% of the girls chose triple science. School accommodates all the girls' choices

Hi for those who dsa by Science, will there be any priority given in terms of CCA selection into certain CCA clubs? Thanks.
