Yes, the cleaners can't beat the users' habit. But sometimes, the condition of the toilet also matter. If not well maintained, like the flushing system, the user cannot help leaving the mess behind. She can at least report to the Estate dept.
This issue has been brought up before many, many times in school. RGS employs 5 cleaners I think - if my memory serves me well. Somewhere around that number. There is a cleaning schedule put in the toilets. Each toilet is cleaned daily. Personally I think that the fault lies with us - the collective us - because the state of the toilet sometimes should not be such, with or without cleaners. I won't elaborate, because it is pretty awkward, and disgusting. And this problem won't be solved with renovations, because no matter how high-tech or beautiful it is, we can still dirty it pretty easily.octoberbaby:
Are the renovations for the toilets completed? hopefully, the girls won't find it a nightmare anymore.
A reputable sch with toilets not being maintained at all. Where are the cleaners?
I think with RGS moving to the new camps in 5 years time, they won't put much money into improving the school facilities, our girls will have to bear with the inconveniences.
Next year, they are getting a new principal. Heard she is from HQ and formally Anderson's principal. -
Dunman High principal boasted that their school’s toilets are very clean with 3000 staff and students using everyday.
Visited the school toilet for some concert, indeed it is very reasonable standard.
Dunman High has year 6 students plus many many staffs. RGS only up to year 4. Could be financial reason. Some cannot even flush thoroughly. The floor is still mozart. User is one thing, the condition is another factor. -
Hi girls,
Do you know if the Sapura supplied MacBook pro is a 13 or 15 inch screen?
Thanks -

Personally i think it's not really the facilities, but the people...Sure, DH has way more people, but they are a mixed school. When 4000 girls use toilets everyday, you know how messy and smelly it can get... Also, RGS really isn't that big compared to DHS, so maybe they can have more toilets.Dunman High principal boasted that their school's toilets are very clean with 3000 staff and students using everyday.

And i'm pretty sure we don't have financial difficulties. Look at how big RI is and all the air-cons in every room. The new campus is coming too so maybe we are saving the best upgrades for later on. -

Both have stock. Depends on yr needs. -
How many cleaners are there? i see vivocity, changi airport, garden by the bay, the cleaners are stationed in the toilet room. Why can’t RGS? it is a TOP sch, certain welfare such as toilets should have to be taken care of. Engage more cleaners, clean every hour, invest on perfumes for toilets, etc.

I am trying plan a trip during Match holiday but my daughter is concerned that
there might be lot of home work and she won’t be able to go.
Can someone comment ? Thanks -
I am very happy to share my joy with you - my daughter is joining the Raffles family. :rahrah:
Received sms at 7.30 this morning. Whispered into my daughter's ear (still in bed) and she smiled and turned to the other side to continue her sleep. This is so typical of her. Wonder how my day-dreamer is going to cope there ? -
Congrats Watmekiasu!!! My dd is also going to RGS this year through DSA.
