Hi Try,
U mentioned teachers penalised SNG girls for being late when Term 3 starts…I believe sch mgt is awared of traffic situation 1st week n will not unreasonably punish the girls.
You mentined ‘Other Full Schs n bigger pupils’ enrollment Schs have smoother traffic as compared to SNG’…sorry if I don’t know such Schs.
From what I reckon, (no Schs names mention here)-these popular Schs are Double Sessions. The other Full Schs maybe located along main road.
Does it matter if located along main road?
Yes, it does.
Main road will hv at least 3 lanes. So if lst 2 lanes are occupied by parents send’g kids to the sch, still have the last lane for passing cars.
SNG AMK location at St 13 is a single lane road. Parents use this lane to send kids to Pri Section. So will be congested.
Sec girls usually use Ave 2 which has 2 lanes so traffic there will be smoother there.
I’m not sure which level yr girl in. But sch is opened to suggestions, do drop P a note if you have any suggestion. -
Crester:
Just go earlier if you are afraid of being late. Aim to reach school no later than 7.05am. Or even better - before 7am. Traffic will be fairly smooth. Have sent our girl to SNGS for 10yrs and the traffic is really ok, lah.Hi Try,

True, my school is a full school too and the traffic congestion outside is really terrible in Mornings and dismissal times. Cars cant even move at times.

Just only Term 2, so far the girls have gone many field trips- Science Element Research, Leadership Workshop(all pupils), Learning journey...
FYI, pupils learn'g Science in St Nicks go thr' a 4 years Module whereby some Upper Sci Topics are being taught. -
Any parents pass by SNG new campus lately?
How’s the upgrading progress? -

Exterior walls have been painted, and the school name has been put up on the exterior wall of the canteen block, so you can see it from avenue 2 (overlooking the track), it looks great! Contractor now re-turfing the field and track.Any parents pass by SNG new campus lately?

The girls who've spent some years there are really excited to move back! They miss the open space and play areas to run around in...and the pianos placed all over campus...wonder if those pianos will be moved back though. -

Wa! Tks for the updates abt SNG's enormous new campus. Believe the sch buildings shd be 4-5 storeys. Wonder if escalator will be installed?? But don't think so.
