        Hi Mummies...


        I read with great interest all your comments about getting your girls to school in time. I was an old girl but lived far away from Holland Grove Rd then, had to wake up at 5 ish am, was the first to board the school bus and last to alight..long ride to and from school.

        I'm super KS, I suppose as my girl is only 14 months old but am hoping against hope that RGPS will move to the Bishan area after hearing about the horrific traffic congestion along Dunearn Rd!

        Was actually thinking of sending daughter (yep...just started walking only!!!) to St Nic's which is much nearer to where I live but no chance coz we've no affiliation or live within 1 km of school. HAHA my friends who have bought properties close to RGPS just to get their daughters in there will shoot me for having such a thought...

        Who knows....6 years down the road the move to Bishan may just happen??

        RGPS will have their school building at Hillcrest upgraded by end 2015 and starts single session in 2016. Hence, it is unlikely to move in the near future.

        Actually Bishan is considered near as compared to many who stay even further.

        is it true that RGPS will start single session only in 2016? My dd is going to start p1 in 2014 and i was hoping she can go to class in the morning.

          hi gigima,


          Yes, confirmed !

          last year 2011 -
          Principal sent out letters that 2016 kicks off single session.

          but before that come 2014 P1, your daughter will study two years (Jan 2014 to Nov 2015) at temporary location: 53 Mount Sinai road (Holland), as upgrading is done at Hillcrest road to expand current premises - build additional new building, new classroom, add new CCA facilities. Any inquiry, can contact Mr David Chew, Admin manager, tel: 6468-2757.

          2014 future P1 and P2 - study AFTERNOON session.

          by end 2013, once Henry Park shift out, RGPS shift in.

                =========
                P3: 8 am - 9.30 am

                P2: 10.30 am - 11.45 am

                afternoon
                =========
                P1: 12.15 pm - 1.45 pm

                http://www.rgps.moe.edu.sg/cos/o.x?ptid=49155&c=/wbn/calendar&uid=1762&focus=2012-2&tag=

                venue: school hall

                at last Sat briefing for P4 / P5:-
                Principal flashed our 2011 psle results onto overhead projector, including mean score for mainstream alone & then combined with GEP.
                We had shown great improvement!

                although most of our girls come from English speaking family and rgps not a SAP school, surprisingly amongst Quality passes for 4 subjects, Chinese was the highest score, exceeded > 90 %!

                same thing happen to MGS too.
                like us, MGS also non SAP, yet Chinese top the 4 subjects, also > 90%!

                    Hi,


                    May I ask what time exactly are P1 students expected to be in school for afternoon session?

                    Usually my daughter takes the school bus but today I drove her.

                    She had insisted that everyone needs to be seated in school hall by 12.30 pm. Stubborn me did not believe her as I thought school starts at 1 pm and we are fine as long as we get there before 1. We arrived at school at 12.45 pm and the canteen area was deserted of little ones. Only the older kids were around. My daughter was very upset and complaining that she was late as she slowly trudged up the steps to the hall. I’ll find out tonight from her whether she was really late… but just wanted to ask mummies here is 12.30 the expected arrival time?

                      KSP, just pm you detailed breakdown results.


                      MGS fought us head on!
                      mean score from MGS was 235.3 (mainstream + their own unique in-house GEP called \"Sophia Blackmore\" class)

                      mean score from RGPS was 235.6 (mainstream + GEP combined)

                      for Chinese quality pass (number of A*), both schools scored > 90%. Applaud!
                      for 4 subjects, both all girls schools beat other SAP schools + other GEP centres.

                      41.3 % scored 250 and above, from rgps.

                        Any idea what the mean scores are for mainstream (without GEP) and GEP alone?
