my dd from girl guides. first year alone easily fill up all the required CIP hours and more. don't even need to find her own CIP to do. a lot of fun and learning. let your DD go through the cca auditions before deciding what she likes.

Is the guides very regimented? meaning a lot of marching, obeying orders etc? And does it take up lots of time, like weekend and holidays also need to go back? thanks for sharing

not as regimental as ncc and npcc. some marching is still involved. so far guides in the first yr only takes up 2 weekdays. once in a while weekends. sometimes holidays. i would say still manageable. of coz if going for competition will likely take up more time. same goes for all the other ccas.[/quote]Thanks for sharing. Holidays would need to go back? Sad as we always travel, if need to go back, hard to pre-arrange.

Actually CCA should be enriching, rather than to get points. MOE should change this.

my dd also 253 +2. Also stay in East. also deciding between SCGS and Cedar. DD afraid can not find friends in SCGS since classmates will mostly go to east side schools...any suggestions?

so we can make them friends ok ?? haha .. Actually still thinking over between SCGS and Cedar, think more of SCGS now ...

Hi PCYYH, Danmom , LandLparents
If any of your daughters would love to choose Cedar, they have my support
I'd say Go For it.
Not just because they are starting the IP soon.
But also because of the holistic curriculum.
I was from Cedar.

We were taught not to simply excel academically. We also excel in sports (track n field), in aesthetics (gym) and in many other areas.
The strict discipline has helped to nurture some really nice, independent , caring young ladies who are at the same time go-getters in life
I have said this before... but i'll say it again since the thread here moves very fast ...
4 simple words to describe my 4 years in Cedar:
Wonderful With No Regrets


Honesty Perserverance Courtesy

Though this (psle) is just a beginning.... Cheers to your daughters' sterling PSLE results...:)[/quote]Hi maisy, thanks for your thots and also great to see your love and appreciation for your school.

Went to both SCGS and Cedar today. Cedar really impresses with the new facilities and stella results. SCGS was very low key and quiet, as the open house was not much of an event. Spoke to one of the senior staff, and she mentioned that thou they accept affiliates with lower scores, these students will be drummed up for the Os .. hence the O level scores were still able to be top in past years, like avg 9.1 last year. Newcomers from other schools, with their higher PSLE scores, will be placed in the top 3 classes. Hence more opportunities for them.

Still pondering. But my girl seems to prefer SCGS, thou the school seems run down as compared to Cedar.


Spoke to parents with kids in Cedar and SCGS. More positive feedbacks on Cedar. So it is Cedar now.
