Hi Marsilingmom,
Does your girl come home late everyday with the CCA & maybe extra lessons by teachers?
I m worried that in future, if my girl has to stay back in school, she will come home late & will not have the time to do her school work, etc..

She comes home late on Mondays because of swimming (~4-5pm) and Fridays around 4pm because of drama. I have opted out of extra lessons because she has Math and Chinese tuition at home. So far, she has never not had time to do her homework. I guess it's a matter of discipline, because she does her work immediately after coming home from school, before watching TV and playing, etc.

Marsilingmom,
Maybe my girl knows your girl...cos they hv the swimming lesson on the same day haha

There will be some transport companies in school canteen during the orientation so u can check out the routes n pricing.

As for student care, there is 1 jus opp HGS. It is situated inside a church. I think there r quite a number of girls going there too.

Hope this helps.

Hi, my daughter is in P4 at HGS this year. Her CCAs are drama club and swimming for this year - they are allowed to change CCAs yearly so that they can try new things. My younger girl will be entering P1 next year there as well.

What would you like to know about the school?

Hi bubbles,


I was looking at this thread without any updates.
Nice to hear from you

Hi mummychia, wiltanws & kohbheng!!
Yes, we've \"migrated\" from Geylang thread to HG thread officially!

Hope to share & exchange our views here..

Cheers!

Hi mummylynn,
So I hv kinda make the thread 'alive ya... Haha :xedfingers:

Wiltanws,

Hello hello…daddies r most welcome too!
My suggestion is to stay on cos it may b disruptive to your girl as she will need to mk new frens, adjust to new environment, teachers, culture etc.

Hi mummychia,

Great to hear that! Congrats to u n mummylynn!

I believe we have make the rite choice for our girls.
With the correct n holistic teachings, that is the most we can help the kids to find in a school. Just hope for the best they can be.

Btw, y did u give up Kong hwa? I am intending to put my boy there when his turn comes. Care to show more? Thx

Hi,


My girl is in P1 currently. She enjoys going to school.

Like some mummies, HGS is not our 1st choice too. We are contemplating between HGS, TN & NA…but no regret for choosing HGS as I can really see my girl is enjoying & learning well.

Are there any mummies who have girls in P1 too? Let’s intro so we can know each other too…
