Hi Courage,


My DD got the merit award when she was in P1 so she is really happy to be able to receive the award again.

She was quite upset when she did not get the modal pupils award.

Hope that yr DD gets the award too!

Cheers!

Hi Herbie & Courage,
Congrats! Merit award is awarded to top 5% or less of the cohort? Thnx!

Hi!


How did the test go? I am so upset. I just found out today that there was an admission test for P1 2010 last weekend. I had no idea that there is such a test. I feel so guilty and ousy that I missed it. I should have checked the website every single day!

Hi,
I am new to this forum. Just joined a couple of hours ago. My daughters will be sitting for the Admission exam on 23/10 to enter P4 in 2010. They will be sitting for English, Chinese & Maths papers and I do not know if they will be doing the SCGS SA2 papers. As for English & Chinese, they have to do Compo & Comprehension as mentioned by \"Mandarin\". There are 2 admission exams in a year i.e. Apr/May and Oct. Each sitting is $25 for Citizen. I would suggest to \"Little Princess\" to submit your application for your daughter to sit for the exam in the Apr/May 2010. I was told that the English in SCGS is 1 grade higher than normal school. Hence if your daughter is P1, she will be doing P2s English in SCGS. For the purpose of this Admission Exam, I have engaged an ex school teacher to tutor my daughters just for English. After sitting the paper exam, there will be an interview session. I will share with you (if you are interested) once the admission exam is over. The SCGS website has very clear instruction for the Admission Exam.

DD passed the exam :rahrah: Interview tomorrow. About 40 to 50kids took the P3 papers. Similarly for P1 & 2. Let you know tomorrow how many at the interview round. Really pray that they can get through the interview tomorrow. DD sound asleep, I am more anxious and worried than them.
There is another admission exam in Apr/May 2010. You can start preparing your DD from now till then.

Dear all,


Just wondering how is the morning traffic situation at SCGS in the morning, let’s say between 6.30-7am ?

I am referring to the direction going towards Bukit Timah Road (opposite to SCGS). Would imagine traffic will be bad outside SCGS (going towards Newton), but what about opposite direction ?

Thank you.

Hi Courage & Herbie,


Wow! congrats! your daughters are so bright!
Your daughters were accepted in GEP selection.
Care to share the reasons behind the decision for not joining GEP? If wanting to take up the GEP, must the girls be transferred out of the school?

I attended the P1 orientation yesterday.
was quite disappointed that I was not able to talk to the school to clear my queries . The form teacher was very busy to attend to parents in filling up the form ....

My queries are:
- whether have exam for P1 in 2010 and subsequently P2 in 2011 and so on?
- will the student stay in the same class throughout the whole 6 years in Pri? or will all the top students in one class and poor students in another class? or well-mixed in a class for top and poor students? If there is no exam, how to screen top and poor students for class allocation? when will they do screening for class allocation?
- they mentioned about the CCA for P1 students but didn't share with us on how to apply them...:?
- any special or additional lessons/subjects for GEP students in SCGS?
BTW, Courage, which class is your girls in P1?

Regards,
Melodies

Hi,


I'm staying very near to SCGS and passing both roads everyday. The traffic is alright every morning (unless car broke down or special events in ACS) outside SCGS be it towards bukit timah road or towards Newton.
