      TREX8:
      Pen88n:

      Start from MGS, drive down to Bukit Timah road NYGH, then along the road to SCGS, and finally go down Stevens Road to final stop RGS. Very efficient and cover all in 1 day :lol:


      Good plan, Pen88n, but not sure whether would there be enough time to see 3 schools - thinking of MGS, NYGH and RGS. Wonder if the school will plan in any talks for parents/students or is it just go and see and tour round the school.

      You have to plan your visits because Open House may not be full day. The schools usually have talks by the Principal and various depts/topics, plus tours, plus booths, performances etc. If you're keen on the talks, then you have to be at the various schools at the times the talks are scheduled.

        Absolutely, both RI and SST having on the same day. If parents want kids to go RI take a look, but maybe kids wanna go SST tour around, then timing wise have to plan in advance.

          some of the open house talks have two different time slots…need to be there a good half hour in advance due to parking and seating availability … look up their websites for the detailed timings


          for those intent on visiting two schools, plan your drive wisely to avoid disappointment

          for those super super kiasu type, bring your P5 kids there, don’t wait till P6 to find out

Already hyperventilating thinking about the logistics (driving, timing, packing lunch etc), scheduling (if want to attend talks by Principal etc), parking and many other things to juggle on a Saturday.

So be prepared to have one parent drop off the other parent with the kid, and the driver parent go drink kopi somewhere. :lol:

                      that means I got to drag my hubby along, which also means we will have logistics problem arranging to pick up the younger one from school from his CCA.

                      Might be easier to leave the car at home and rely on cabs/buses ...

                        Yes. Especially as the schools are all around the same area. Wait for the schedules to be posted on the websites and plan!
