I was in PSG throughout DS 10 years in CHS.


The Pri PSG is slightly more active.

The Sec School, the boys doesn’t like the idea of parent in the school, lol…

Don't think I was ever in PSG - whew! Altho I did help out here and there, was class rep for some years and volunteered in library.

As for One-CHS ... errr... activities - of course altogether wat. How to have different CCA (or other activities) segregating different streams. LOL.

Can't believe I've been going to CHS for 12 years?!

This is very sad especially he is the only child.

Life is so unpredictable. We must learn to value n treasure our loved ones.

Hi all

DS just received his PSLE results today and will be applying to go back to CHS Sec (O Level Track) via affiliation.

He did not do HCL for PSLE, I would like to know if there is any way he could appeal to do HCL in Sec 1?

thanks!

Does anyone knows what the COP this year, my DS got 256+2, any change to go IP route?


From all source of information, think all SAP schools have high COP, feeling nervy/stress…

Criteria to qualify for HMTL in Secondary School, you can find the answer http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/secondary/language-programmes

thanks. According to the criteria he doesn't qualify But I understand some SAP schools will still encourage the students to try for it. Am hoping CHS is one of them. Will check our more at the open house this Sat. thanks

Hi CHS parents, my son is keen to join CHS IP. Pls share feedback and experiences about the IP program;

1. How many subjects (graded) do they take in Yr 1 (core excluding electives)? What are they?
2. Are the subjects well covered in school or is tuition necessary for child to cope? My elder son is in another IP school and some subject trs don’t teach sufficiently so I’m worried.
3. How are the IP teachers? I hear that CHS teachers from ‘O’ lvl track are very caring and nurturing? Are IP teachers similar?
4. Is the environment very competitive and individualistic? Again I hear some IP schools have such reputation.
5. Is the school more geared to Asian values or ang-mo pai?
6. What is the literature book title used in Yr 1 last year?
7. How’s the HMT standard? My son took HCL in P6 but would it be a huge jump in difficulty level or still manageable.
8. Any other feedback that is useful about CHS IP?

Thanks so much for your feedback as it’s a 6 yrs journey and I want him to make the right choice.
