      Can anyone advise on the environment in Rgs? Caring n sharing among girls or competitiveness observed. Will gals from underprivileged families be looked down ,looking forward to genuine opinions. Thank you very much.

      My girl studies, makes notes and shares with her friends. Maybe she is not the competitive type, but I didn’t hear anything from her about observed competitiveness. The girls are generally self-driven, self-motivated, respectable and fun-loving, but not mean to each other. Nobody asks or talks about their family background. At least not that she had encountered. We are grateful for “sisters in learning and sisters at heart”. The friendships and bond that she made are invaluable. Our experience is that it has been a really fine school.

      I hope my child would meet friends like your daughter! She is so kind to share her notes! Thank you for blessing our community!

        Hi!

        I would like to find out more about the 3rd Language commitment and whether there are transport arrangements for these students at rgs to MOELC for year 1.. my child is keen to take either Spanish or Japanese. Appreciate any input, thank you!

        Btw,.. Which literature books are taught in year 1?[/quote]
        There should be buses to transport the girls from school to MOELC (one way), and the girls will make their own way home after that. Not sure which books they will teach next year, but my dd time it was Animal Farm for Sec 1 and Romeo & Juliet for Sec 2.

            You are most welcome Zeal mummy! I’m sure your girl will find nice and caring friends! Seniors provide strong support too, especially in the first year. I think there are about 5 PSL (peer support leaders) and 1 prefect from Sec 3/4 attached to each Sec 1 class to help them navigate through the first year, providing encouragement, tips, talks on mental health, etc., and any form of help needed.

                    Not sure as my girl not in performing arts, maybe International Dance? No specific pre-requisite, but there will be CCA audition/trials for those who are interested to join the CCA.

                      Thanks a lot. 🙂
                      1. It depends on which CCA, some end early like 4.30-5pm, and end late 5.30-6pm.
                      2. Third Lang is usually on Friday afternoons
                      3. No
                      4. Mon-Wed and Friday start at 7.30am, and Thur at 8.30am. But due to covid, Thur also starts at 7.30am
                      5. Earliest dismissal time is 1.20pm, unless they have study block as their last block and no other activities after that in which case they can leave at the start of the study block .
