      By the way, what time do the students need to be in school and is the traffic really bad in the morning? There is a direct bus from my house but will take approximately 45min to reach NJC (w/o traffic jam).

      Have to be in school by 7.40am for assembly. Must make time for walking also, ok? Go earlier and traffic will be fairly smooth.

      phankao, thanks so much for your kind advise.

        :sad: Probably not,since it is an SAP school and my chinese isn't that great

        Sorry for the late reply :imsorry:
        Not too sure if you are aware that JH1 and JH2 students hv to take Higher Mother Tongue regardless of PSLE MT score or whether the student had studied HMT in pri sch. Only in JH3 can a student opt to take MT or the sch advises the student to do so.

          Hi! ๐Ÿ™‚ I'm new here XD. I got 258+2 for PSLE and I intend to put NJC as my second choice. First choice would be RGS. What's my chances to get in NJC? Also, why do we have to stay in the school for a term very year? That is my BIGGEST question.

            NJC is not a SAP sch, so cant use the bonus HMT pts.

              Thanks for your reply :thankyou: I am aware of that,but I felt that SAP school's standard of chinese would be much higher than that of non SAP schools so I prefer NJC.Anyway I have already put NJC as my first choice due to the fact that my dad has agreed to chauffeur me there ๐Ÿ•บ

                Btw, I think Nanyang Girls' High School has boarding school for girls only which is open to non-Nanyang Girls' students. NJC boarding school also takes in regular boarders.

                If for some reasons the travelling distance affects your time available for studies, u might want to discuss the boarding school options with your parents.

                All the best to you.

                  1) Which term does JH1 need to stay in the school?


                  2) For Japanese class, is there any transport to MOELC? How many hours and which day will the lesson be held?

                    For the past 3 years, it has been 4th term for jH1s to board. It could change, I suppose, but unlikely.

                    I don't think there is any transport to anywhere for NJC. ;D Unless it's a school-organised event and there is a bus arranged.
