Hi, thanks for your reply. May I know what is contrasting subject? Thanks

\"Contrasting\" means
contrast between your Science & Arts subject

Example

If you are an Arts-stream student at A-level, you need to take a Maths or Science \"contrasting\" subject.
eg. take H2 Mathematics


the other way round

If you are a Science-stream student at A-level, u need to take an \"Arts\" contrasting subject.
Eg. take H2 ( Literature or Geography or History or Economics or Chinese Studies or 3rd foreign language or Higher Music or Higher Art, whichever is your strength )

Thanks Song22! So everyone needs to audition for the cca together with the JAE students after the JAE students come in? So in the first month there is no cca?

Hello, I am so sorry to miss this earlier, I just saw the message :oops:

Usually the IP students could join some open trainings at the end of the year to indicate their interest and I guess the intake still based on cca requirements / individual's talent, some may get selected even before the jae students join if they are very good. And those in the same CCA and don't want to change their CCA like track and field will probably just continue with their training

Your girl is now in Year 4?

Yes thank you for the reply. My girl is in Y4. Yes she knew about the open class where the existing nygh girls are able to attend even though they are not in hci yet. That helps give them an idea whether the cca is what they expect prior to cca selection in Y5.

Those students offered with DSA via sports to Year 5 (JC1), how will they offer the options to choose their subject combinations?

[phtthp]

thought nowadays, all DSA Sports commitment is for 4 years only, no longer 6 years ? Means your son’s Hwa Chong DSA (Sports) commitment end at end of Year 4 . Come Year 5, your son is a free man, free to take any Sports or any other Cca category he fancy, because his DSA commitment is over and done with by then, no longer tied to that one-and-only-single- one-Sports domain which he had DSA in, at P6.


Go and review those Terms-and-condition which you signed the DSA contract for your son, when he was at end of P6

Sounds like she is asking about DSA-JC.
