Dunman High School (Junior High)

[Dharma]

Augmum:

yes, u're rite, i could understand how the kids feel when they cannot go to their dream schools. saw some of her classmates cried on the results day.
frankly, as for this yr, i see most students failed to perform within their expectations by talking to some parents.

Hi Augmum,

Is your dd from RGPS?

Hi Augmum,

Is your dd from RGPS?

hi Dharma
no, my gal is not fr rgps. she is fr a all girls' sch. (why.....???u mean rgps girls performed below expectations for this yr)
prob, becos they are girls, they cried more easily as compared to boys when they saw their t-score not meeting the COP of their dream schools.

oh......btw, dharma, what are the choices of yr gal's school?? ( i remembered we did chat b4 the results were released)

Augmum:

hi all


i've submitted the S1 form.........1st choice : DHS 2 nd choice : NYGH
these few days, while i was trying to convince myself to put DHS as 1st choice, on the other hand, my gal was trying to please me (i know she's trying to please me) by saying, \" if u want NYGH, then NYGH lorr......\"
in the end, i go with her heart, by saying, \"Confirmed! DHS as 1 st choice\", immediately i saw the gleam in her eyes.........
i hope to see the continunity gleams in the eyes down the 6 yrs.........

DHS a good choice ! Know someone graduated from DHS (now 34) with very great character, good english good chinese ........ and I can feel, from him, that he had a very great and unforgettable time in DHS...... very fun, good and with great friends ! He's still keeping in touch with DHS friends with regular ex DHS gathering ! He was a basketball player there.

......and.......he can translate easily from English to Chinese and from Chinese to English ..... every phrase and every word, in exact meaning, and very fast - very helpful in work. Perfect in his work, accurate and 100% filial son with great problem solving skills and amazing never-give-up working attitude --- and I am speaking as a boss of him 9 years ago.

....and when you mentioned 德明 students in the working industries , almost everyone will \"wow\" .... especially on their double languages !

She will definitely have a great time in DHS !

Hi Augmum,
Sorry. I just wanted to be sure cause I remember we communicated under the RGPS thread.
RGPS did better this year, especially the top students.
We have selected RGS as 1st choice followed by NJC,MGS,SCGS…

yes, dharma, we did exchange some views on all girls' sch in rgps thread. (u got gd memory, guess that was the only time me talking in rgps thread)

i remembered at that time u were rather anxious abt yr gal not able to go to a all girls' sch, but fr what u had said now, she performed better than u expected.
happy for u..........

Thanks Augmum. You're right, she did much better than our expectations.

i think for 267, your daughter should be able to get into 1L or 1K. the 2 school based gep class. we learn slightly more, especially in math and in science we go online for maybe one or 2 extra quizzes and stuff after every topic. sometimes we get about 1 or 2 extra worksheets instead of quizzes.


but overall, it’s about the same, the students from other classes perform better sometimes though because there are many people that work hard. and theres only 25 in a sbge class while other classes have about 36.
