3-Act Drama Tan Kah Kee

20/3/10 (Sat) 3pm Victoria Theatre

Recently ds came home with a ticket for the above drama. Seems like it is compulsory for all students (or was it only for Sec 1) to watch. Since there is no mention of transportation arrangement, I assume the students have to go on their own. Anyone heard anything about transport? Thanks.

By the way, hope the boys have a great time at the coming camp and get to know their peers better

The school don’t usually arrange for transport for such events, the boys will have to make it there on their own. Raffles Place or City Hall MRT station. Anyway, we shud let the boys learn to be more independent and not always depend on school or parents to send them to activities like this. My 2 cents.

Good question, but not a fair comparison, since those who got into HCI at yr 5 are only the few minority who did very well in their 'O' level. So there is a high chance of having IP stream do better, because more people and got GEP pp mah...

It is not to compare in that sense.

It is to see whether the IP students lose out in not having to go thru the vigorous O level exams.

You have given your reason as to why you think the IP batch should do better but despite your reasoning, what happened if the fact is that those who entered at Year 5 did much better ? At least we know whether the IP syllabus is effective.

So, did the school give a breakdown on this ?

Thanks
