Hi Parents.


I am looking for a home tutor who teaches O level Pure Chemistry & Physic for my Sec 3 son.

Kindly pm me if you know of a good tutor.

Thank you.

Any idea where I can find the school announcment of how their 2013 O level cohort has done in the 2013 O level exams?


There is nothing on the school website about their academic \"achievements\" at all. Just wanted to get a sense of how many percentages qualify for JC & Poly.

Hi.

It's in the letter from the Principal dated 16 Jan. Check it up under \"latest announcement\".

Hi.


Thanks for the reply.

ya, it is definitely more challenging with the sharp increase in the number of subjects. i hope my son can cope well. :xedfingers:

i'm afraid i don't have the time to volunteer in the PSG as i have a full time job. how often do you need to go to school to attend the meetings/activities?

I'm also a working mum of 3 with no maid.
Volunteer when you can. They have monthly meetings but just spare whatever time you have so you can bond with your teenage son more. Activities wise also, spare whatever time you have, not compulsory to attend all la.

Were you at PIE night & Orientation?

Yes, i was there

did you attend the cca fair with your son last year?

Anyone's DS posted to this school? Any feedback so far?

Hi.....what would you like to know? My ds is there.

Hi Eyktay,

Which year is your DS in? My DS is in Sec 1 this year.

Is your son enjoying school so far? How's the environment and discipline?

Looking forward to your sharing.

Hello.


Would be thankful if someone can teach me how I can solve this...

If 1/5 = 1/A + 1/B and A & B are whole numbers, what are the values of A & B?

1/5 = 1/5 - 1/6 + 1/6 = 1/30 + 1/6

cheers.

Hi Mathizzzfun,

Thank you for the workings.

But.... Sorry, how did you get 1/5-1/6 + 1/6?.... :nailbite:

Friend's kid, P6 last year..... She told me tat to hv greater sec sch options (we r talking abt avg n not the better sec sch) need to hv at least a score of 245 & above!!

Score of 245 is very high. Easily can go to the following.

St Nicholas Girls' School
Cedar Girls
Catholic High
Victoria
ACS
Anderson Sec

Score > 250 will land you at

Nanyang Girls' High School
RGS
RI
Dunman High
HCI
RVHS
MGS
SCGS

Got to be realistic and don't stress the kid too much for such a high expectation. If the kid can perform then be it

Think there are also other \"better\" sec sch with score below 245

Happen to come RV Thread and saw the above posting.
If I may correct some of the above Sch's COP:
1)St Nicholas Girls' Sch shd be 249. Likely to go up as going IP next yr.
2)Cedar shd be 249. Went IP this yr so COP is raised.
3)Catholic High is 247. Likely to go up,going IP next yr.
4)Victoria is 246.
5)SCGS is 248. Likely to go up,going IP next yr.
6)MGS is 250.

Hope you parents don't mind me sharing the above data.
Thanks.[/quote]hi hi.

you are most welcome

hi Shandee,


sup suppose to be extra lesson whiile remedial is to help the weaker students.

are they helpful? i don’t know…think they use the periods to cover the syllabus and not extra drilling…i think…

yes, very limited indeed. if wanna get into good schools, will have to travel. there’s a crescent girl there but it’s a girls school so too bad for my son…

hi Shandee,


yes, it’s true that psle preparation starts at p5. but, for rvps, supplementary classes starts from p2 i think. even when son was in p4, he had to stay back every tues and thurs for supplementary classes.

ya… actually around rvps area (tiong barhu, queenstown etc) there’s no ‘better’ sec sch. highest is GESS which entry score of ~>220…
