Yes, DD and I really like Mdm Heng and we think that the NYGH culture under her leadership will be a gentler one than the culture in RGS.

My dear niece went to class today and this is what she recounted. Class of 10 boys : 3 COs, 6WLs, 1 don't know yet. The high number of WLs is worrying.

Hi breanne,

That is a high number of WLs. I guess the COs and WLs are from RI and NUSH. Maybe with HCI's results the numbers might become more positive? What about the girls in the class? Better news for them?

Oh these numbers are purely from RI too. My niece is the only girl in that tuition class

that is why outside talk is that Mdm Heng has a lot of pulling power .... so will continue to see high cut off point for NYGH in the coming years

she is really very capable and a well liked principal

I haven't heard of Mdm Heng before this and now that we have met her , I find her a truly outstanding and charismatic principal. I have also met the RGS principal during the Open House talk. She is, no doubt, also very capable but strikes me as a very business like lady with none of Mdm Heng's warmth and personality. I just feel more comfortable leaving my DD in Mdm Heng's hands.

Yes she did and got COs from RGS and NYGH, a very focused and determined girl who has decided upfront that it will be RGS and nothing else.
