      Hi may I know usually when will the secondary one orientation be held? Would it be before school commences on 2nd Jan or after?


      Would it be advisable to purchase the books and uniforms in advance? Any house t shirt/consortium shirt to purchase? Thanks

      SOO is usually conducted first week of school, i.e this year it's probably 2 to 4 Jan (and since 3 days only, probably full days as well) Thereafter, First Day of School is on the 7th, and Sec 1 Induction Day (or something like that) on the 8th, so proper lessons probably will only start on the 9th. (also means no need to bring all the heavy books on 7th)

      Books and uniforms will all be purchased during the registration day (20th Dec) while classes (and therefore consortia) are only revealed to students on the last day of orientation (so no need buy any consortium shirts etc.)

      Hope this helps!

      hopefully it's 3 days ... sometimes it might be 5 days, if I remember correctly.
      Sec 1 Symposium for the parents is on 12th Jan (Sat). Consortium tees (for the boys) will take a while to be sold to them. Boys need to wear uniform on 4 days of school and dress down (ie tees) only on Friday so do buy enough.

                      Goodness. That book is being used as literature text now for Secondary One?! I know the author intended to use it as textbook material, but I think it is quite a challenge for our S1 students.
