Thanks Blackvelvet!
Hi Electronelectron:
Hi BlackVelvet
My dh and I are considering placing my ds in St Gabriels' in 2013. Our other choice is St Joseph's. We are staying in Bishan.
Did your son benefit from all the remedials in preparation for P6 last year? It is obvious that the school's emphasis is on improving the quality of teaching and learning. It is also praiseworthy that the teachers would spend that many additional hours teaching after curriculum hours.
Your comments, please.
Yes, my son benefitted from the extra classes, and he had made improvements in his subjects.
It was not only after curriculum hours that the teachers spent. The Mother Tongue and English teachers also came in earlier in the mornings to give the boys extra practice in Oral.
Kudos to St Gabriel's teachers! So all those reports in the newspapers about the teachers not using curriculum time effectively and so resort to mindless extra classes is just one side of the story? Tsk, tsk.
In my opinion, happy teachers, make happy students. Based on your sharing, it looks like the school is heading in the right direction. -
I intend to enrol my boy to St Gabriel next year 2012, and want to find out the school fee. Can someone please share with me the monthly fee which i have to pay?
Thank you. -

Hi
have you decided to put your boy in St Gab? Am considering for the P1 registration 2012. As I am not within 1-2km, might have to do PV to increase the chances?
Any other good feedback about the school? Do they perform well academically? -
Hi all, I would like to check how much is the sch bus fees for those living in Bishan?
And overall, how is the school environment?? -
My son is in primary 2. Aside from some complains about bullies from older grades in the school bus, he seems to be doing quite well. Talking about the bus service, last year’s was better and cheaper.

My son is in SGPS P5. St Gab is not famous for academic, so not surprising u have not heard anything. But quite stress free, no much pressure on students.Hi parents,

Yes, it is single session, and the assembly is later then most schools, ard 740. Transport is terrible, gave up, now my son take public transport. -
thanks for the response Rosicky.
Since your son has been with the school since P1, do you have experiences to share with respect to how the teachers are, the boys in school...cirriculum etc?
Also, why do u say transport is terrible? are u able to elaborate a little more as to whether its a safety issue or timing issue ?? I may have to rely on the school bus provider of the school since i dun live too near the school. -
For parents who are interested in registering their sons at St Gabriel's Primary next year, there is an Open House on Saturday, 9 July from 10am to 3pm.

Would like to know more abt the bible class as well… cos i wld want my boy to attend bible class…can someone advice?
Thanks much! -
Hi,
Yes, you can walk around the school. If it’s the same as in previous years, most likely there will be displays of the boys’ work in the Chinese Room, classroom etc.
PM-ed you. -

Hi All,
Im glad to receive sms from MOE dat we hv successfully secured a place in SGP under Phase 2B! My boy b’coming St.Gabrielite next yr!
God Bless -
‘successfully secured a place in SGP under Phase 2B!’
Interesting, why did you need to mention SGP? Where else can can St. Gabriel be in this website? Anyway, just find it amusing.
Me son too is going there next year, didn’t have much of a choice, praying very hard that it will turn out to be a good school to begin his education system in ‘SGP’
Cheers! -
I would like to register my son in a boys school and was contemplating if I should go for St Gabriel or Montfort Junior. Which is better? Someone please help me! Thanks

My nephew is registering for P1 at St Gab this week under Phase 2C.
Any chances? He is staying within 1.5-2km range.
How’s the school discipline? This is something we are worried about other than academic. -
Just registered for phase 2C. So far, seems to be balloting for above 2km only. Hopes and look forward to my son being a Gabrielite next year
