If RGS merge with RI, then RGS name will be like OUB, swallowed up and disappeared forever.

For music, those with Grade 3 & above will learn how to play the guitar while those without music background will take basic music (not sure what) in the first term.

1. Is this compulsary?
2. any fee? If yes, how much?

It is part of their Music curriculum. No fees needed. Test grades reflected in progress report.

Thank you very much Mathsparks. Sincerely appreciated. Your girl is from RGS too ?

no la, edanson. Mine's a boy and the books I listed is for RI not RGS.

Hi Mathspark,

So you you have only one child? And he will be in RI? So, I may have a chance to meet up with you?

Cheers

[mathsparks]

Yes, edanson, boy's going to RI and I've a girl in MJC A levels next year :yikes:


Yep, maybe our paths will cross but unless prearrange then I'll not know who you are. Next Wed, I'll be among many other parents craning our necks to figure out which class he's posted to. Nah...he'll crane his neck himself, since he's taller than me already.

btw, Vikaesh qn abt class grouping, do you've any idea? Thanx much.

[mathsparks]

Went to bibi baba this morning. Quite crowded, had to park all the way to the 10th floor. Shop was crowded too...and only 2 fitting rooms.


Good thing we came here to get, otherwise next week, I wonder how'll the boys try on their pants. There'll sure be lotsa red-faced boys if they've to try it there on the spot among their frens. :oops:

So, our loot:

2 shirts - 8.60 x 2
1 polo-T (for Fridays, I was told) - 9.10
3 shorts - 9.60 x 2

Total 55.10

Wonder why the staff there is so cat. They couldnt find the sample polo T for trying, dh asked them to let son have a new piece, they said must pay up first, and exchange if it doesnt fit. So cat for what, there'll be others who need to try also. :?

Anyway, we're almost done. So, next Wed, we only need to get his PE shirt plus show him how to take the MRT to Bartley where I can pick him up..just in case I cant fetch him home.

Looks like I'm more excited about him starting school than he is. He looks so smart n sharp in his white uniform :love: , but he said he looks strange.

There's still OUB centre! so name's not really swallowed up.

The building will be gone one day or the name will be changed.
