My DD is in CO and she plays the cello. NYGH is her dream school. We are going to try DSA and I would like to seek some parents' here.


Any of your child is in CO? Anyone plays the cello? Are there many cellist in CO? My friend told me, if for a particular year, the school doesn't need many cellist (or RUAN, Er-hu etc), the school will limit the number of DSA. Is it true?

Hope some mummies & daddies can give me some advise. TIA.

Great to know that your child's dream school is NYGH yay:)
I'm a student in one of NYGH's performing arts group.
Not a lot of cellist in CO though, but you can try to DSA into Strings!
Strings have quite a number of cellist!
Anyway good luck! hope to see your child in NYGH soon!

It is rather competitive in school, and some teachers like to compare the GEP class with the mainstream classes. But this competitiveness is good, and encourages us to do even better.

You have a positive attitude! :boogie: luckily for you, the sch only has around 2/3 GEP classes...

jaztxm:

The teachers are very supportive, though sometimes it can be annoying when they get you to do 'self-learning' and speak indirectly when you ask for help because they do not want to 'spoon-feed'. They are very open and encourage us to make appointments during recesses if we need extra help.

IP is like that very into self learning ... They really teach less but expect you to learn more...... on your own

It's always great to see students sharing in the school threads, giving us parents more insights to each school. Parents talking to parents may not reveal the full picture... Thanks for sharing!

Hi


My DD applied for NYGH DSA. She attended the interview in mid Jul. To date, there is no news from the school on the outcome. Anyone knows when will the results be out? I understand the results from other IP schools like RGS, RI, HCI, NUSH are all out already. TIA

Please refer to the DSA forum. There is a discussion going on and we were told that it is today or tomorrow. Sorry, I do not know how to link the page for you.

Best wishes and good luck!

Hi, existing students and their parents. Are there school bus operating for NYGH? I know there is board house? but is there compulsory board program like in NJC? Thanks

Hi, I know there are some girls who take the school bus to school in the morning. Boarding is a Year 2 program, for one-month only.


Additional info:
NYGH provides one way transport to send the girls from NYGH to Newton Language Centre for their Third Language. Cost only $50 for a year.

Hi, i am a newbie on this thread. Appreciate information regarding the following.


Are the girls in Sec 1 allocated classes according to their T-score by Geppers / mainstream or DSA by sports or DSA by academics?
