Rgs seems to be making great effort in integrating the girls. No more gep classes or classes by dsa domain. No more pure higher chinese classes (all chinese, no racial integration). Girls from the same primary schools seem evenly distributed across the 12 classes (no more classes dominated by girls from same primary schools).

The school believes that all rgs girls are high abilities girls and all should be treated the same. I think this is a great move.

Heard that RI/ HCI and NYGH still keep their gep classes. In fact, NYGH’s gep classes has gotten even more elitist - it used to take in psle high scorers too, but no longer so this year. The 2 classes are strictly for gep girls only and the class size is small vs other classes.

Can anyone pls share their experiences / thoughts on SAP (Special Art Programme) in RGS. Is there any auditions for this, any additional fees.
For Year1, how many CCAs do they need to take up (min n max). What are the core and merit CCAs.

I'm keen to know as well.

Kaisuparents, is your girl going for the SAP audition on 1st day of school? A bit scary to go for audition right on the first day!

No, she didn’t opt for SAP

My girl is starting her first year next week and we are staying in Sengkang. Any recommendations for school bus?

The journey from Sengkang is actually quite short. My girl travels by the train.

Thanks!

For international dance selection last year, the girls had to follow and do some dance moves in a group. Each girl also had to do a short individual dance choreographed by herself. Not sure if the selection process remains the same this year.

You are welcome.

Each school has its own method of class allocation. There are pros and cons in any system. I think many schools are mindful of this and do their best to develop each student's full potential
