Bb_mom,


Sorry for the late reply. We have booked a plaza deluxe family room (2 queen size bed) for 4 nights at around $1,400 through hoteltravel.com in August.

I have checked with the hotel directly and they have confirmed our booking too.

Anyone has any idea which hotel webpage has the best price to book for Royal Plaza Hotel?


Is Royal Plaza convenience and whether the mrt is far away from the hotel as we will be traveling with 2 small children and old parents?

Is there any cafe or shopping area near Royal Plaza? Will you choose Eaton Hotel or Royal Plaza?

Eaton is having promo for advance booking.

Thanks bb_mom!
We have decided to go ahead with Royal. Plaza since they have bigger rooms and their rates are comparable to Eaton Hotel.

Thanks dimsum!


Just wonder whether anyone has booked through hoteltravel.com as their price seems very attractive?

The vendor/tailor is at school selling uniform. We bought from them.

Thanks tanlines!

Thank you grownearethesky.


Just wondering anyone can advise whether the girls are allowed to wear their own jacket to school in the morning or they can only wear the school approved jacket? If they can only wear the school approved jacket, where can we purchase it from as my girl is afraid of coldness in the morning?

Thank you.

Do my DS need to be in school uniform for the registration at MOELC this Tuesday? Tq

No need to wear uniform.

Just though I'd post a short congratulations to all girls and parents' of girls who have made it into the SCGS Secondary 1 2015 cohort! I assure you all that you have made the right (in fact, best!) choice!


It's going to be a fun 3 days of orientation (part of the comm, haha, so I would know) and we hope all the girls will be active participants and enjoy themselves! It will be a great four years (or ten, if SC Pri) in SCGS Look forward to seeing all the juniors on the 2nd!

Just a few things to note,
1. Please PLEASE do not tuck in the PE T-Shirt! It is not meant to be tucked in unlike some schools so if you do, it will look (to be honest) super ridiculous and amusing. So, just, don't.
2. During CCA walkabout, take note of ANY cca you MIGHT join, even if you have one you already want so so badly. Auditions are tough for some CCAs, especially those with small intake but high demand, so I suggest going for the CCA you want as well as 2-3 more auditions for other CCAs that may suit you too as backup! To do so you need to be very very alert of the dates being announced during the CCA showcases or you'll miss the auditions! I advise bringing along some paper and a pen to the showcase and jotting down ALL DATES AND TIMES of the auditions you signed up for.
3. On the topic of shoes that was earlier brought up, up till 2013 the school was pretty strict with the all white rule, such that even logos had to be coloured in with white markers and so on. They've relaxed this now though knowing many brands have their logos on the shoes, so just make sure the logo is very small and hardly visible or you'll be called out. Anyway there is always the option of scouting for shoes with logo print in white, personal example for me would be Adidas and Northstar if girls and parents still want high quality shoes without the hassle of colouring or removing the logo

Yup I guess that's all for now Once again a big welcome to the new members of the SC family!!! :congrats:

Thank you grownearerthesky.

May I know which year are you in?
