        My view, we can guide the child but shld not spoonfeed them with notes. However, we shld get them to be involved in their studies and when they are involved in their studies, we can be less involve and they are takeover the 'steering wheel' n be in charge of their learning journey.
        Yes, guide kids when they are young, with a good habit, kids are easy in learning journey.

          That is more like a GEP screening test for the prep lab. My DS went thru it and was lucky to have gotten in.

          While questions presented in classes are really mind blowing, I must admit that he enjoys every lesson thoroughly.

          However, I am not sure how things will be with their other classes moving into Pri 4 and above. Anyway, we have missed the registration date for current student thus can just wait and see how.

                :congrats: to all students that has been selected for the GEP Selection Test.


                Good luck to all of you (parents included) !

                Remember (to myself especially), whatever the outcome maybe, you should feel proud that you've made it this far and have done your best !

                      It depends really, if yr girl is currently in a girls' sch then she may prefer to go rgps.

                      For nanyang is quite difficult to take public bus, as the school is located quite far from the main road. So do check on the accessibility.

                      Personally, i would go for either rgps or nyps. Btw, rgps will also be relcating to somewhere near henry park sch. I can't rem the details, next year batch will not be affected. Hence, U may want to take tat into consideration.

                        Farrer Road MRT station starts operating tomorrow, come out at Block 2 and walk across the void deck, cross over to Queen's Road then King's Road -- immediately at Gate A of NYPS already
