for IP path ... st nick marriage with CHS is fine ... after all, they have common background ... both are catholic schools.
but this SCGS coming in ... is strange !
SCGS is not catholic school, nothing in common with st nick.
i feel that SCGS .... should find another Secondary Boys school to combine with / marry.
I agreed totally!!! Maybe SCGS should combine with st joseph, both are independent school -

I wonder why SCGS didn't get together with SJI. Probably one or both schools didn't like the idea. Or MOE didn't like the idea.greenbean2011:

Hi, I'm considering doing PV at CHIJ St Nic so my child can enter phase 2B. Can any parents here advise me how to apply for PV?
Also, is this school strong in its chinese language?
What ECAs are they strong in?
Would like to know more abt the school before I decide whether to send DD there. Any advice is much appreciated! :thankyou: -
dear SNGS mummies,
Like Angelight, I'm also interested to know more about this school. Is it very academic oriented and stressful?
Would also like to know if there are/is any good BASC nearby the school, or even better, within the school compound. many many thanks!
hi Angelight,
do u like <1km? lucky u
SNGS is a SAP school (I think) so it should be strong in chinese? -
mum2b:
As SNGS is a SAP school, therefore all kids s to take hcl from p1. Stressed only starts to come from p5. Teachers in sngs are very caring and they have different subject teachers.dear SNGS mummies,

I was thinking of creating a new Thread but noticed that all St Nicholas Girls’ School related questions are in this single thread so pardon me if I somehow interrupt any topic currently being discussed.
My daughter is in P1 and Chinese is very tough for her. She had Chinese subject back in K1 & 2 but I didn’t expect that she didn’t learn much and that it is not enough.
How did my daughter get in to CHIJ? I once googled ‘Top Primary Schools in Singapore’ and one of the results was this school. Within 2km from my place, I registered her and got the slot in the balloting. I had no idea that no other language is offered other than Chinese.
Now first term has just ended and my daughter is too much struggling in Chinese. I searched again on the internet for a private (1 to 1) tutor but non replied among all that I emailed.
By the way, my family is not Chinese. It’s my fault that I didn’t consider sending her to Chinese tuition before P1. It’s because all I wanted initially was to send my daughter to one of the top schools here and just choose Malay as it is easier (much much I guess) than Chinese.
I am not considering other schools at the moment. I am happy about the school, the very nice and approachable teachers.
Any advice will be very much appreciated. -

P1 is still not too late to catch up, just need to work a bit more than others and it would be able to make it. I have a Chinese neighbour son scored high destination for Malay in O level, no one in his family speak Malay too.
