      Hi Strawberrypancakes,

      Nice and happy to see your post. My daughter has got into CGS via DSA. With your reply, it shows that we have made really a good choice for her.

        Just for sharing, My elder daughter’s is just graduated from CGS and has enjoyed her 4 years in CGS.


        My younger daughter’s just gotten her PSLE results and is eligible to enroll into CGS and her sister is encouraging her to do so.

                Hello, we're hoping there'll be existing or past Crescentians or parents' of either here, who can enlighten us on what does CGS's CCA: Digital Art & Manga club activities are the girls engaged in ??

                Our P6 2021 graduated child is excited ,upon spotting this unique CCA, & wishes to put CGS in either 1st or 2nd school choices. This is because she likes drawing but hers are leaning towards Japanese cartoon ones (somewhere between chibis & manga) & not the traditional art styles. When we were shortlisting schools from MOE's issued \"Choosing Your Secondary Schools\" booklet, CGS only indicated Digital Art club, no mentioning of Manga club. So we are confused & puzzled, why CGS\"s school website CCA page included the latter. My girl is worried that Digital Art club (without Manga) is in fact similar to most other schools' art clubs, where traditional art specialisation skills/techniques are typically valued.
                Secondly does this club requires Sec1 students to undergo audition/trials ?? Are all applicants to its Digital Art & Manga club, who put it as 1st CCA choice, granted this CCA ?? Or most of its members are typically assigned to, due to their unsuccessful allocation to the more popular ones ??
                :thankyou: for any valuable feedbacks.

                  Unlikely will fluctuate much due to the number of classes allocated for sec 1

                    My daughter just finished her O level in CGS and these are her sharing for you consideration

                    “I'm not very sure about this coz there isn't much going on in that club and idk anybody in it. But from what i know i think it's not the very traditional art kind of drawing and I've seen pictures of like manga art style in the room that they use

                    About the audition thing I'm not very sure but i dont think there is”

                      Just for sharing.


                      My daughter shared that during her CCA session she reached home at 7.45pm.

                      By the time settled down after dinner and bathing, she will do her homework and goes to bed latest by 11pm. She will continue to catch up another one hour of resting time in the morning as I sent her to school.

                      We set the light off timing at 11pm and has scheduled the wifi to disable at 11pm.

                      Beside the school hours , she has tuition on weekday, weekend and church activities.

                      She used whether remaining time she has to catch up on preparation of tests and examination.

                      As we are very tired after a long day of work therefore let her planed her studying time.

                        My younger girl is eligible to goes CGS and after weighing the pro and con of few schools option based on CCA and traveling time is leading toward putting CGS as first choice.


                        Should she choose CGS , she can use her sister school books and this help us save some money.
