I have not seen any updates from NSG on if there will be any competition that would be held this year.
Anyone has seen anything?
Reason I am asking is that if there is no competition, is it still necessary for the gals to attend CCA 3 times a week?
It was supposed to be twice a week for non peak season and 3 times for peak ( competition etc).
Does anyone have insights on the other CCA if its 2 or 3 times a week?There has to be some consistency right?

My girl's CCA already started training 3 times a week now (supposedly non-peak season) even NSG usually only happens in May-Jul. I think they have not been training much the past one year, so the teacher/coach thinks they should quickly catch up now?

I can understand the point if they are making up for last year's lack of training, but if the sport is not in line to have competitions this year, should they be having 3 times a week training?
I don't know, I might want to send an email to the teacher in charge to ask

It added that the Ministry of Education (MOE) will \"review again the type of sports to resume and in what format, to ensure that games can be conducted meaningfully but safely for our students\", with more details to be released at a later date.

Unless the vaccine is 60-70% distributed , I don't see the NSG going ahead this year
It would be disappointing to the gals but that is the way it is

Hi, all:


My girl entered RGS this year.
In the primary, I clearly knew her academic status & could guide her up to PSLE.
However, now, I am puzzled about her academic. Is it enough only based on homework? Does the extra tuition necessary, or some extra test papers for exams? I saw her quite busy all days but seems not many academic efforts.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Tuitions are not necessary if your girl is self motivated and disciplined enough to do all her homework and supplementary work and clarify any doubts she has with the teachers. There are quite a lot of exam papers available on inet that they can do. Not aware of any extra test papers or assessments books you can buy that caters to their curriculum which is quite different from the mainstream
