Yap, NJC Junior High has a high population of girlsHi JJ1111,
Which OG is your child in? Mine is in OG1. I think he's feeling a bit overwhelmed. So many girls. I'm surprised at the large number of girls in JH1. Boys are a minority. Has it always been like this for the JH intake?
not sure about the ratio at Senior High after the intake of O lvl candidates. -
Jennifer:
There will be more boys at JC level. But in individual classes, might depends on subject combination ? Bc combinations like bio/chem or mainly humanities will still tend to have more girls.

His timetable is out. His Physics class has < 10 students now. Many empty slots in between due to no Chinese lessons. Thur lesson starts at 10am.
Ytd supposed to hv Project Work (PW) slots. But was not conducted due to O lvl candidates not reported yet. I suppose both groups are combined for some lessons? -
According to my elder boy, Senior High 1 boarding is sometime in March for 2 weeks.

Should be combined. Bc even in their current classes, the students are not all taking the same combinations. I'm not sure if the classes for the O-level intake will be similarly mixed.

Checking in with DS started JH1 yesterday! Was touched by the welcome from the seniors when we entered the staircase with upbeat music and cheers - made the JH1s (and their parents) felt like rock stars!
DS' OG has 4 boys and 16 girls..yes there'll be lots of attention for the boys
He mentioned everyone was like one big family. -
