Sometimes, after going to an Open House, you (or your kid) will change your mind about the school. I know we did.

So were we ! Both positive and negative ones.

thanks turquoise...so the open house will be around june right?

Most of them hold it in late May or in June, after the SA1s, usually on Saturdays. NJC's tours were on weekday afternoons. Best to call the schools or check their websites.

Yes, if you’re free, bring your P5 kids to the dsa open houses…even if they’re not applying…it may spur them to work towards their goals.


Also, do attend the briefings conducted by schools for P6 students/parents. Crash their party. So you know in advance what to prepare.

Nus High open house starts as early as Apr, while HCI/RI in May.

I did bring my younger boy along for Open Houses as well. But some schools he was totally not interested to going to visit.

O, that's because SOTA does not take in any student after the DSA and they have camps and auditions to attend. Been looking at their curriculum and their syllables, very interesting...

Thanks, mathsparks


where to get info on RIPMWC ? as for CCA, yes, no \"useable\" CCA though he won some prizez in some international competition but not the CCA highlighted by RI

Look forward to your sharing again on DSA prep.

Thanks!

It's organised by RI for P6 students. Registration thru schools only, not tuition centres. And some schools allow Maths club and selected group of students to participate only. So, check it out with school and dont miss it.
