2) beside the school book shop, where can we buy the VS school uniform? (don't think the book shop sell school uniform except on the 22 Dec reporting day which will be crowded, I believe.)

Thanks,

Hi, I bought my ds's uniform last week ( he is in year3) at the bookshop so they should have the uniform for the lower sec students. Call the bookshop and beat the queue. All the best to your son in VS!

NOW that Victoria Junior College (VJC) and Victoria School (VS) are moving ahead with the launch of an Integrated Programme along with Cedar Girls’ Secondary School from next year, VJC and VS should consider renaming themselves collectively as Victoria School (‘More schools to offer Integrated Programme’; Nov 19)


Victoria School has produced three former Singapore presidents - Yusof Ishak, Devan Nair and S R Nathan - as well as many other prominent alumni, such as Mr S. Dhanabalan and Professor Edwin Thumboo, in its 135-year history.


VJC will share Victoria School’s unique heritage.


The two schools already have ‘Victoria’ in their respective names so a collective renaming would strengthen ties and identities among its student bodies.


VS supplies a large number of the junior college’s yearly cohort and the sharing of a common name will build upon the unique relationship that both schools have.

Hi,


My son scored 262 in the PSLE.
We are Malaysians and stayed in the east. We are considering Dunman High and Victoria.

Dunman High - SAP school and co-ed
Victoria - government school and single-sex

We heard Dunman High has a lot more girls than boys, up to the ratio of 2:1. Any person can confirm this?

Kids nowadays are different from our generation. We are afraid that he may get distracted by bgr stuff.

He is active and his preference is Victoria.

Any body can provide further input to the two schools?

Thanks!

Hi, my son has decided that he would like to be in VS (and i hope he gets in). Is there any prep he could do during this 'free time' rather than surfing the net or play games? Any book on history / geog / lit that this mummy can buy in advance at popular book store. Thanks in advance.

Sorry, can’t advise you here. I’m old Victorian, over 20 years ago, while we were in Tywhitt Road.I wish your ds all the best in VS.My ds is going NUSH, while hopefully my younger one will be Victorian few years later.
