:thankyou: N3SKiasu, Appreciate much for your reply.  This thread was getting unbearably quiet.... Wish more will contribute so that we can understand more of NYGH as I believe there are quite a nbr of DDs joining next year.

Badminton is also a core CCA. I am very happy with the school culture & support given by the school to the students. I also have a sense that it is a well run school administratively. Only real complaint is the frequent traffic congestions along the stretch of Dunearn Road with so many schools packed so close together!

My friend whose son is in another IP sch came over to my house to take a look at my DD1’s work and commented that NYGH teachers really teach and prepare their students with many worksheets and past year exam papers. She said her son’s school was really "teach less and learn more on your own" so she has to engage private tutors as tuition centres may not cater to his son’s IP sch syllabus and her son was getting 50 -60 range of marks in his term 1 and 2.


My DD1 enjoys her Sec 1 life at NYGH and her class is quite closely knit. They really play hard and study hard ! We’re glad that we’ve made the right choice. Her class is quite competitive too. The 1st in her class is 84.7, 2nd : 84.5 and 3rd : 84.0 Although in terms of average marks there’s one girl who got 86 but her MSG is > 1 due to her chinese is A2. Quite a pity.

Btw parents of Sec 1, any lobang to purchase iPad2 apart from the vendors that the sch had recommended during the iPad briefing ? Do you think there’ll be any discount at any IT fair ? TIA.

Does any parents of nygh girls have experience with Learning Lab or Learning Point English tuition for IP students ?


Which is better and more suitable for IP?

I noticed that on TLL website, the secondary curriculum only for year 1 to year 4, does it mean they do not have anything for year 5 and year 6 ?

Thanks.

Yes, TLL only offers enrichment up to year 4.

The price for iPad is pretty standard. I don't think you will get any discount, maybe some free gifts if you purchase at some of the IT fairs. DD already has an iPad (the original one, not iPad 2). We were thinking if we should get the iPad 2, but decided to make use of the current one first. Maybe iPad 3 will be out soon, I don't know. We have just upgraded the OS to the latest and have downloaded all the \"free apps\" that are required. Realized that we cannot download one of the apps that require the camera since the old iPad does not have a camera.

Depends on your nationality and the year of study. The list can be found here :

For Sec 1 and 2, if you are on ESSIS scholarship, then you just need to pay the miscellaneous fees of S$750 / annum.
