Raffles Girls' School (Secondary) [*IP]

[VALyap]

Currently, my DD’s school bus from Pasir Ris to RGS is $95/mth per pax, even in Dec or June still need to pay. I have an offer by a Taxi, to transport one-way pick up from Pasir Ris per pax $80/month one way to RGS. However, must have 4 paxs, good thing is during school holiday like Dec, June, need not to pay. If anyone keen, please PM me. Let’s see if we can have 4 passengers .

Hi all, may I ask a few obviously ignorant questions? :oops:


What are the school hours (timetable) for students at RGS?

Usually, how many hours of sleep does your DD get?

Do most still send their girls to school? If so, how's the traffic condition like in the morning?

Thanks

According to my Gal, Sch Ends at 12.55pm to 1.55pm, Diff Wkdays, Diff Time. She says it's the Shortest Sch Hrs among her Ex-Pri Sch Mates, Now studying in other sch like NYGH, ACS, HCI, RI

However, depends on the CCA the Gals select, they may have to Stay back on the CCA days, 2x or 3x a wk after sch till 6+ or so, depends on CCA.

And if they R taking 3rd Lang in MOELC, Fridays afternoon is the Designated RGS 3rd Lang days.

Hours of Sleep? Depends on Assignments, Proj Due Date ....
Going to Bed Super Early in the Morning if One Gotta Rush for these Due the Next Day ....
Hours of Sleep is Very Much Dependent on Sch, .... Or External CCA, Enrichment Classes, One takes, Right?
I Heard of Gals who Sleep at .... 8pm (Unimaginable! Ha Ha ....), and Others Who sleep at Past Midnite in the Wee-Hours like 1am to 2am.

Quite a Fair Number R taking Sch Bus in the Morning (One-way only -hor).
Of Course there R others Who sent their Gals to sch, while others take public Transport. No diff from Pri Sch ....

Thanks for your reply. I'm a lousy driver, that's why I'm losing sleep just thinking of the traffic.

U R Not Alone
So Better let the Gals Sleep in the Sch Bus in the Morning.

Most Gals Catch up on their Beauty Sleep in the Bus. No Worry of Missing the Stop, or Late for sch.
My Gal even Got Bumps on her ForeHead from the Frequent Knocks on the Sch Bus Windows

Anybody DD had ever went for RGS selection test (math domain) ? Can give some tips on preparation?

[friendship]

Take sch bus is better. Ease the stress and ERP charges. Unless you are on the way to your working place.

A question for girls (or their parents) in Yr2 - for the tests/exams in the 2nd half of Yr 2, will Yr 1 work be tested? If so, for which subjects? Thanks!

Not really, but some stuff are built up from sec 1, especially math. For eg there's geometry, some basics are already taught in sec 1 and you need to use them to reach certain steps, or algebra, which is again a higher level than sec 1's but you still need some sec 1 skills.
