So, forms then - is anyone clear on their choices yet?

I suppose some are waiting for Kent results?

We are going to see Chatham Grammar tomorrow evening, and Rochester GS on Saturday, but I have an idea of the order we'll probably choose...how many choices do we get?

Where do you get the forms from? We don't have ours yet.

Ours must have come home from primary school - we've had them at least 2 weeks, although I'll do ours online (if the system ever comes back up!)

Do you think 3 choices should be sufficient?

We only picked two (for both DS and DD). Luckily they both got their first choices.

DD is at RGS on Saturday (probably in the science labs or art rooms).

Hard to think that a year ago it was us looking round :?

What's the art offering like at RGS? We were very impressed by the textiles etc at Fort Pitt!

I was thinking they would be less 'arty' at RGS?

Yes, it *was* going to be, but I have just spoken to someone who knows the new Head and suggests Chatham Grammar will be a force to be reckoned with!!!

It was probably not quite as good as FP but very close. DD is very "arty" and was happy with what she saw at both schools but RGS just edged it for her for a variety of reasons. The only thing that I wish they did (although I think they are due to start) is cookery.

We do stacks of cooking at home so not TOO bothered about that, although I do remember with fondness my HE lessons :)
