      Hi parents, can you advise me about the culture and the environment in RGS? I am shortlisting a few schools, and RGS is one of my consideration for submission next week. However, I understand it is very competitive and stressful. I will like to understand the support, the culture, the teachers and the students?
      Please do help for those who have a much in depth into RGS.
      thanks alot in advance!
      Generally the girls are friendly and helpful, like most schools, in year 1, they make new friends, choose their CCA, adapt to the new curriculum and environment. Honestly, it is competitive but not stressful. The year just flew by in a flash!

        Hi Reenie,

        1. My daughter doesn’t have any tuition and copes fine. Teachers are available for consultations and that is the better option as I think not many tuition center follows the IP curriculum closely. She is going Year 2 next year.

        2. Yes there are many confident speakers and leaders. My daughter is not vocal, but she is a confident speaker. She made many friends and have a closer group of friends now after year 1.

        3. It is indeed rather competitive as there are limited slots. It depends on her piano grade, but there are sufficient slots for the aesthetics like band, strings, orchestra and choir, so she should be alright.

        Hope this helps!
        Thank you so much for replying as well 🙂 I can’t express how grateful I am to hear from parents here. Thank you so much. I feel more confident now that she is making a wise choice.

              Thank you, Emoh! Would you happen to know if there is parent chat group for the incoming batch? Would like to connect with other parents within Katong area to see if we can make transport arrangements.

                  school usually ends around 1.20-1.30, but can stretch till 2.20/2.30 as the time in between are study blocks. if I'm not wrong, cca usually stretches till around 5+ but it varies! my cca stretches till 6+ on some days 🙂
