Singapore Chinese Girls School (Secondary)

[bsk]

Hi

Just want to check how many children are there generally who take mother tongue tamil( in Umar Pulavar center), since they don’t teach language during school hours wanted to find out how the girls generally manage.

I heard Tamil is still conducted in school premises though not stated. Why not give a call to the General Office.

Oh!! U r right. Called the school and they said they are teaching in the school for the last 2 years. Wonder why such information are not available in the booklet. Have included this school also as a choice. Thanks. Will wait for the outcome

I just wanted to know if SCGS is a good choice for my daughter to go next year. She's from a non-affiliated neighbourhood school and is seen as being reserved and quiet by most people. This is because she has been bullied by a number of girls in her primary school and she has lost many friends. But she's academically excellent and she doesn't wish to go to MGS or RGS because she would like to be in a slower-paced environment. She gets along with people really easily if they're nice to her. She's the top scorer for English every year since she was in primary 1 and she is very good in mathematics and science too. Her Chinese is a little weaker than English but she manages to score As and even A*s. She scores either distinction/merit for HMT. It'll take her about 45min to travel to SCGS via public transport (and she doesn't mind it because we have traveled there before for the open house). It takes her only 15min if she travels by our car but some days I may need her to use public transport. I'm expecting her to score at least 265< for PSLE. Please reply

SC is a good school, but I definitely wouldn't consider it slower paced in comparison to MGS.

Hi,


I am new to the forums and I’m hoping that people will bear with me. My daughter is also new to SCGS, having just transferred after the march holidays.

I was just wondering, does anyone know where to get the SCGS hoodie? The green one with the SCGS wordings in yellow?

Hello, I am a student. They do not sell the hoodie anymore. I think the last time it was sold was during the SCGS carnival (2014/2015)? I'm not sure if it will be restocked, because the school was selling it at the carnival at a higher price and could not finish all the stock, then decreased the price to $30 for better sales later. It was $30 at its cheapest but it's not that worth the price. She will have a sec 4 batch jacket, so I suggest keeping it simple by wearing the dark blue jacket. It's quite warm

My dd is contemplating about scgs. Some questions i would like to ask:

1. Is the work load heavy? Is there homework every single day?
2. Is the school’s main focus on chinese language? My dd wants to take dsa for english but is worried she cannot catch up with the rest of the students for chinese. She is average at chinese, not too bad but not the best.
3. What time does the school start?
4. Is the environment there good? Facilities, Other students and teachers etc.
