The boys are not allowed to wear PE tshirt/shorts to school as they have to attend a 'formal' morning assembly. It's only allowed in special circumstances, e.g. camps, cross-country etc.

The principal of Victoria School mentioned during today's orientation that they do not have any vacancy despite a long waiting list.

Hi publica,

I missed the 29th dec VS orientation as we were on oversea holiday. Can let me know any interesting update from the new principal?

Thanks.

Hi rylee,

I was not present but my husband mentioned that there's not much update besides camp briefing, how to choose CCA and part of the time taken up by PSG, which we signed up for 4 years. The boys went to their respective classes to meet the teacher. Maybe parents who were present can add on.

The P was formally VP from RI. One of the VP was a HOD from NYGH, and another VP was from VJC. So this is to assure parents on its integrated program.

What would be the best way to travel from VS to Bishan MOELC? Service 55 all the way to Bishan Interchange or Service 43/135 to Paya Lebar and take the Circle Line to Bishan?

Crescent Girls, CHIJ St.Nicholas Girls top GCE O-Level Exam

Posted: 09 January 2012 1505 hrs


SINGAPORE: Three students have topped last year's GCE O-Level examinations with 10 A1s each.

They are Lim Min from Crescent Girls' School, and Zhong Yingyi and Chai Yung Ci - both from CHIJ St Nicholas Girls' School.

The Education Ministry said they are among the 99.9 per cent of students awarded certificates for achieving one or more GCE O-Level passes.

A total of 36,955 school candidates sat for the examination.

95.3 per cent achieved three or more passes, while 81.9 per cent got five or more GCE O-Level passes.

In other results released Monday, Nur Fatima Baginda Ali from Bukit Panjang Government High School is the top Malay student with 7 A1s and 2 A2s.

Six students with 9 A1s each are the Top Indian Students.

They are Ritika Ramesh from Crescent Girls', S Manoj from Gan Eng Seng School, N Karthik, Sai Surya Yarlagadda and Varun Moorthy from St Joseph's Institution, and G Kiran from Victoria School.

The top Eurasian student is Keren Ann Henry from Methodist Girls' - with 7 A1s and 1 A2.

Amanda Chia Siew Hui from Holy Innocents' High School and Khoo Chit Hui from Monfort Secondary topped the Secondary 5 category with 4 A1s and 1 A2 each.

The Ministry said 48 schools also had at least one student scoring 7 A1s or more.

Some special performers have overcome physical disabilities and other challenges to get good grades.

One of them is Shalom Lim of Victoria School.

He suffers from muscular dystrophy and has very limited upper body movement.

But that did not stop him from scoring two A1s and three A2s.

He said he could not have done it without support from the school, as well as the Presiding Examiner.

\"He was there all the time, and he helped me a lot by placing my hand on the table. Because of my weakness, I was unable to do it myself, but he was always there to help me, make sure I was comfortable before I started the paper. I am very thankful for that,\" said Shalom.

Victoria School's top student, Jervis Ong, scored 10 A1s despite the demise of his father and grandfather in 2010.

An ASEAN Scholar from Malaysia, he had to go home for a few months in 2010.

Jervis said: \"After I came back, I missed out a lot of lessons and I actually thank many teachers who stayed after their work time to help me in subjects I was weaker in. So, thank you Victoria School.\"
