[quote=\"Luanee\"]Anyone knows if P4 girls need to go to school this Wednesday?

My DD told me no class this Wdenesday, it's parents teacher conferencing day for P3 and P5.

Thanks ctct! Then why was there classes on p4 PTC day last Friday?[/quote]School sent a email mentioned about special arrangement for P4 early PTC, and did not state the reason...maybe it's a new style of PTC, starting from P4 this year. anyway, i'm happy not chosen for the meeting.

getting confused!!! I believed that there is about 8 P3 classes, and if there are 4 girls selected from a sample class, then there should be about 24 (assuming average of 3 per class) to 32 (assuming average of 4 per class) selected from the school. The calculation adds up.


Elitelab says that if less than 8 of them in each class make it, then will there be 8 x 8 which is 64??? further confusion when it was mention from the best 3 classes? Is your child from RGPS? my gal is going P3 next year, but it is stated that P3 are all multi-talented ie, they get mixed up (=> the standard are similar) so will there be \"best 3 classes\"? Or perhaps I am told wrongly and the school does stream secretly (which i dont think so).....

So long as the parents are in RGPS email loop, just take that as the official channel of information from the school.

I think we should not get too anxious about the steaming. Everyone child is different. Some get matured earlier and some later. But i believe their 6yrs in RGPS will have a lifelong benefit for them.

this Saturday is P6 graduation (calendar).

Congratulation !

All P6 students are welcome to join our school's JUNIOR alumni.

This is interesting! I didn't know there is a junior alumni. Is that why there were a number of old girls helping out at the Family Day funfair? Do u know if there are fun activities or reunions?

Wow that's good!! I emailed the school to ask about whether there will be classes today and he replied there was a letter dated 5th Nov informing us about it but i didnt receive?

Anyway my dd still has to go to school this Friday speech day, to perform (not to receive prize) haha... Wonder if there be school bus on that day??

hmmm..... i can understand meekopeeko's position on such estimates as the school truly believes in \"holistic\" development and as such, do not release information that they deem to encourage competition(?) within the girls. In fact, unlike most school, we do not even know which class position that our gals had achieved in the year! Just fresh from the PTC and we are only given a broad range of her performance (eg, above average). Sigh... with such minimal info, how to be truly KSparent? So we have to extrapolate, interpolated and eventually pluck figures from the air to fit our internal model of where we think our girl is (whether lousy or good) . But this is life as a RGPS parent, but as was KSP says \"their 6yrs in RGPS will have a lifelong benefit for them\" and we have to leave it just that and accept things as it comes. Perhaps that is why we cannot do fact findings, because these are not available.

BTW, you mentioned that reputable schools has abt 5-20 GEP student, I have known for a fact that Pei Hwa has 24 selected for this year, out of which i think 19 from the top class. So there is no question abt it even though it is out of the statistic range. Out of curiousity, do you happen to know what is the number for RGPS this year? In case we are not accessing the \"fact\" properly....
