Hi,
What is the timing for school start and end on a typical day that don’t have cca?
And also what time will the girls release for day with cca ?
Thanks!

School starts at 730am officially. There’ll be girls in school as early as 630 onwards.

For year 1s, they end some days at 1230pm +study blocks, other days at 1.30pm +study blocks. Study blocks are part of school time, they are about an hour long. Teachers can book the study blocks to give the girls more information, group-work time or instructions especially closer to exams. The girls didn’t really use the study blocks in the first few months.

CCA are usually on Tuesday/Thursday, ends at 530-6pm for my daughter. If they start early, they end earlier.

Hope this helps!

Thank you, Emoh! Would you happen to know if there is parent chat group for the incoming batch? Would like to connect with other parents within Katong area to see if we can make transport arrangements.

Last year around this time, or was it on school posting day, someone set up a parents WhatsApp chat. There’ll most likely be one this year too. Let me ask..

Hi,

Can I ask about the uniform requirements in RGS with the current COVID situation? How many set of formal uniform do we need for 5 days study week?

Hello!


If there is a WhatsApp parent chat group for Year 1 2022, please let me know! If there isn’t, and there are prospective parents who are keen to start one, please PM me.

Also, what’s the recommended weekly allowance for RGS girls? Do the girls bring cash or is there an electronic payment method in school?

Lastly, I would be grateful for any advice from RGS parents and RGS girls on how best to help my daughter with the transition to secondary school e.g. tips on how to manage time and cope with studies, and tips which would be helpful for new Year 1 girls!

Thank you!

Currently they are only required to wear formal uniform on hall assembly days. Other days they can wear PE shirt with culottes or any other official T-shirt with culottes. If they happen to have pe on the same day as hall assembly they have to bring along their blouse and tie to change.
As to whether if this will change next year, I am not sure. To be safe, you can purchase two sets of formal uniform and 2 sets of culottes/pe shirt

We bought 2 sets of uniforms (blouse/pinofore), 3 sets of PE attire (polo tee/culottes/shorts), socks and a tie. The girls wear uniform for assembly days. So far so good.
