From inet, I was very surprise to see that there is zero DSA for performance arts this year. There were over 40 DSA just for sports and so that means around 180 DSA academics. Is this the norm or is there a shift in strategy for RGS?

U meant in-take for sec 1 DSA? How did u know tat?

The quota information for 2013 CCAs is all in the PDF document linked given at the site for application

Hi Kids,


Can u remember playing the 0 to 17 number elimination game in your first weeks? The one where u r supposed to eliminate the numbers until the very last number… Do u know what technique (memory or numeric techniques) is employed for this game?

Thanks

Perhaps I should say Girls or young ladies... Instead of kids...

Can some senior girls let me know whether Y1 girls need to go back to school during the summer vacation ? I am planning for a holiday in June but not sure whether my dd need to go to school during that time.


Thanks

Hi,


I have another question for the yr 2 girls... Do you usually keep all your text books in your school locker? Aside from the Mac, what are the things DD will need to carry in her bag on a daily basis?

Thanks,

I wonder about this too, are the students expected to take their textbooks to school? Or are the textbooks merely for reference purpose and the teachers will not need them to make use of them in class.

Thank you for any advice.

My dd brought the books to school and left them under her desk. That's been her habit since P1. I'm not sure if it's OK to do so in RGS, or can they only leave stuff in their lockers?

The GEP classes are 109 to 113. The COP for mainstreamers to get into GEP classes is 273 this year. This information is from a teacher to the students in a GEP class.

wow, really?
This means they heard us when we had breakfast talk with the ex-P last year. There was a concerned father asked why his GEP girl from RGPS has to be grouped in the same class? There is a tendency that there girls do not mix with other students except their own classmates since P4.
The ex P explained that MOE has set condition that GEP students have to be grouped from P4 to Sec 2 together.
Which brainless MOE scholar who implement this idea? Never think that EQ is more valuable in future.
