Yes we do have air-cons! But most remotes aren't working and the air-con filter hasn't been cleaned in years i think. We only have 2 windows, and Sec 1s study in J Block[which is like metal cabins]. So no air-cons means :faint:

Huh? Never Clean for Years? :faint: :faint:

:scratchhead: :idea:
Could include \"Clean the Air-Con Filters\" as part of Orientation Activities!
:siam:

Competitions would be Sports and Performing Arts, but they all take up a lot of time...What about Maths Society? I heard they have many competitions too.

Can anybody just join Math Society? Any criteria or entrance test to take cos my DD is interested.

There is an entrance test. Somewhere at the beginning of the year. My math and science are like :faint: :faint: so i didn't go for it. I think it's math olympiad stuff.

Choco05, if DD DSA into RGS through Math domain, any idea whether she still needs to sit for the entrance test or she has priority. It's ok if you do not know. Thanks anyway.

Then what do you think about Chinese Orchestra? Do you happen to know how the trials are conducted and the amount of time per week? One more question: Is there something like Student Council in RGS that pupils can join?

Chinese Orchestra accepts people with no prior experience. Most PA and sports CCAs have sessions thrice a week

Student council...you mean like prefectorial board? Yes we do, we have 4 lead boards--Prefects, Peer support board, Student Congress and House Committee. Sadly you don't choose to join it, but rather, they choose you. Like selected pupils/interviews.

Yes Choco05, leave some surprises for the new Year 1s to experience for themselves. It'll be even more exciting.


To all the year 1s, you'll definitely have a lot of fun during Orientation Week. And the parents too. You'll be beaming with pride.

Choco05 and jtoh,

You have got us all excited! Am so looking forward to that first week. Seems like I am the one going to school, not DD.

Mummy, stay calm. You only get to go to school on registration day and on the last day of Orientation. The rest you must enjoy vicariously.

That's why there's this period of time the whole class got sick because germs spread easily. I guess we got immune to that afterwards.

Culottes + PE shirt, and yes. You might not get to shower, but oh well. And sleeping in an air-con classroom is nice

Air Con ClassRoom?
Can U Hear My Gal's e-Cheering in the BackGround?

Btw, Do the Gals have lessons in Air-Con Comfort?

Very cold classrooms. I think RGS is one of the few schools with fully air-conditioned classrooms.

Regarding leadership positions:
Self-nominated or nomination by classmates/teachers?

Oh yes, I remember parents asking more questions than kids.
