There is a major change in the time table in aspect to duration of each lesson, recess time & additional thing call lunch time. Personally by looking at it the first glance, i quite like the new timing, now sch dismiss earlier.

Yes I prefer this new time table too, especially the 'lunch time' as my dd did not have time for lunch before her CCA. They need to change and bun hair. I have to pack snack for her. By the time CCA finished at 6pm, she was already so hungry. Not sure they added in due to parents' feedback ?
For my dd class, 'lunch time' is on Tues and Fri but her CCA is Tues and Thurs... :stupid:

I like the new time table for my ds in year 1, ends earlier at 130pm but my dd in year 5 still ends at 5pm and her cca on wed even ends at 7pm.

Year 5 ends at 5pm everyday ? :!: wow that's very long hours.
So their CCA is from 5pm to 7pm ? :shock: That's very tiring.
Is CCA compulsary for year 5 & 6 ?

[daisyt]

I heard from dd mentioned that year 5 & 6 ends quite late but didn't know its 5pm. I guess, its time to train up them getting use to long hours.


I heard there are different categories of CCA for year 5 & 6, different from 1 to 4. Eg. there is photography club for 5 & 6 only. What are the other CCAs?

I heard from my child that Y5 & 6 they are allow to drop or change CCA.
But the student Portfolio will not be so nice without CCA when they apply for U right....

oh yeah, that's right. It is so competitive nowadays... they'll need CCA, CIP and lots of other additional profile in addition to their straight As before they can get into those popular courses they want in uni. Not easy at all. :rant:

For year 5&6 they end at 5pm bcos in btwn they hv alot of free periods.
They hv to attend lecture where all classes meet each other in the theatre depend on their sub combi. thus tis drag the time longer in sch. CCA for year 5 is on wed and it starts at 230pm n my dd normally ends at 7pm.
