          Hi funx3,
          Your DD is truly impressive!! Where does she find time to practice gym & dance, as well as her studies? Guess she must have very good time management skills. Definitely not an easy task. :lol:

          With gym, your DD can even consider RGS during the DSA exercise. A friend's DD DSAed with gym last year and was accepted. She was approached by a RGS 'talent scout' during the National Championships and subsequently, RGS invited her parents & her (plus other identified achievers) for tea with the P.

          Good luck to your DD with her upcoming Gym championships. :celebrate:
          This Year Gym Championship Very Tough ....
          She Up Against, if I'm Not Mistaken at Least 3 National Team Gymnasts who's the 1st, 2nd, 3rd Winners in the last 2 years. But We Compete in the Spirit of Sports .... Already Told My Gal, Win Medal or Not, Mummy is Already Proud of Her .... Just Try to Score As Near to them As possible ....

          And Thanks Very Much for your Well Wishes .... Esp the LUCK Part, Think we Need Loads of It ....
          πŸ˜‰ πŸ˜‰

          Heard RGS is Very stringent in their Sports-DSA .... They Want Good PSLE Results As Well ....
          Heard Last year DSA-Sport Gals Accepted is in the 262 to 265 Region!
          So Whether DSA or Not, with their Results alone is Good Enough to Enter RGS Already .... :roll: :roll:

          How About Your Friend's Gal, Is She a High Achiever Academically, Apart from Being an Excellent Gymnast?

            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:


            Max of 1- 1.5 hours per school, and then zip to next school. Pack picnic lunch and drinks πŸ˜‰
            Wow U Very Efficient. Been Thru this B4?
            Guess The Schools have \"pakat\" together to Either ....

            Deliberately Making it Difficult to cover ALL Schools ....
            OR
            Making It Convenient for the PArents?
            Since Only Need To take One Day Off for Those who Work on Sat ....

              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.

              Wah, sounds like the open house itself is a stressful process, man! 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.

              Parking will be a problem. So be prepared to have one parent drop off the other parent with the kid, and the driver parent go drink kopi somewhere. :lol:[/quote]U So Funny!

                  I only plan route based on school location. Never done that before, but I seriously doubt can finish all 4 in a day. Maybe very stressed with the rushing. So far, I've only visited one school per day.....

And even if you do it'll be very unsatisfactory because you don't get to fully experience what the school has to offer you. Best to rank the schools and work your way through from your most favored to least.
