[quote=\"bridesep\"]Hi parents,


My DS is in Y1 and am trying to plan my June holidays. Was told at the academic briefing that they boys will have 2 weeks of \"free\" time during the June and Dec holidays. Is there a definite period of free time or it depends on the CCA and whether the boy has remedial lessons ?
Thanks in advance.

No definite period, depends on CCA and remedial. Most CCAs will try to either use the first week or the last week for CCA. Remedial almost always in week 1. Best to check with teachers.

My daughter is in the JC section, but I recall the principal saying at the Y5 briefing last year that as a school policy, they don't have activities in the 2nd and 3rd week of the June holidays. Still, it's best to check with the individual CCA if there's anything special on during that time.[/quote]Thanks, RafflesianSnr and slmkhoo !

Here was what happened last year according to DS.

Last year, the book out day was Thursday because there was cross country on Friday. He needed to call a tutor to check his room before he booked out. Then he returned his access card to the Boarding Master who was stationed at each block's lobby.

The farewell party was held on Wednesday night last year. There were some games, food, drinks and performances.

I don't remember receiving any letter from school regarding the book out. But don't worry, the boys know what to do.

Thank you ngl2010


School ends at 2.20pm on Thursday.

Its the same situation. Cross country on Friday. Book out is on Thursday.

But we are told to fetch boys 7.30pm onwards.

Is it possible to clean room after school and book out rather than wait till 730pm?

I don't think so but you can ask the Boarding Master.
