JustKP:

My DS brought back a piece of paper entitled : 中一语特课程（算一科目的分数）。 Anyone here knows what is this all about. My DS says is LEP (chinese), but I thought LEP is part of CSE which starts in year 3. According to him, if you do well in it, it will help in your chinese language marks and vice versa. I would like to know how long do they have to stay on this course (i.e. Year 1 only or throughout the 4 years or ....)? What if they can't cope, can they drop-out?


If you have any details about this, appreciate if you can share it here.

Thank you.

Anyone knows more about the 课程 by now (I didn't get the paper)? Is it for high ability students in CL or the weak ones? If it is to help students learn more CL and improve CL marks, then the weak ones like my DS (A in CL) should attend. My same concern as JustKP, \"What if they can't cope, can they drop-out?\"
Thank you!

the syllabus is on the school website.

Hi just wondering what is the percentage of students taking up 3rd language in HCI.. :?

I think most of the students took up third language when they first entered HCI, but most of those pupils dropped out from their third language eventually.

Dear all parents & S1 students in Alphelion consortium


Re: De-conflict 3rd Lang & RS on Thursdays for S1
This is an extract of msg received from Aphelion consortium:
\"Dear Sec 1 Gentlemen
This concerns Aphelion Project Skills Preparation (PSP). Please read the following message carefully.
1. Clash With 3rd Language or MSP Lessons
Some of you may have encountered difficulty in making a swop on the timing of your lessons. After discussion with Mrs Ke, this is what we have decided:
PSP will start promptly at 2pm and end by 2.45pm. This should give those who are affected ample time to travel to your language centre.

For those who are still unable to work within this, you are encouraged to attend the Research Module of another consortium. You can email me at [email protected] to seek help with the arrangements. But make sure that you use this option only after you have exhausted all other alternatives.\"

Therefore the options are, in order of action:
1. If u can meet the schedule on Thurs for both PSP and 3rd Lang, don't change anything.

2. If you cannot consistently be on time for 3rd Lang on Thurs, pls ask for class transfer from MOELC. Transfer forms are available at MOELC and need to be endorsed by the school before submission.

3. If all avenues are exhausted without resolving conflict, please contact Ms. Quah to make arrangements with other consortium for RS.

Userid n password will be issued near end of or after Term 1. This portal allows u to assess ur son's progress report and results.

The symposium was conducted in two parts.
First part was separately conducted by respective consortiums and part two was for whole cohort.
The presentation for Aphelion consortium is already uploaded at their website.
Is ur son in Aphelion?
If not, perhaps other HCI parents can share their experience with u?

Part 2 covers HCI's holistic approach to IP, students' assessment, CCA, etc...u can find most of this info on HCI website.

Updates on events are available on HCI website and also on SMB.

Thanks so much for the valuable info. My son is from ProEd, not sure whether the presentation for ProEd consortium is uploaded at the website. I will check HCI and SMB website for more details. Thanks Way2Go.
