Heard from the one of the parent whose child was shortlisted for 2 interviews to Nygh that they have received the rejection email from Nygh yesterday.

Would you tell your child if received CO from DSA?
Will it affect them from concentrating in PSLE ? Would like to hear parents thoughts..

The kids are discussing amongst themselves and can check online or even call up the school if they want.

just inform your child, let him or her know. Sooner or later, they will know because inside their P6 class, during recess, they will ask amongst themselves (fellow classmates), \"so, did u get any CO or Waitlist ? From which school ? \" This type of info, can't hide.

My take is should tell regardless of CO or otherwise. If the child is mature enough to go through process of audition/trials/interviews on their own then they deserve to know the results. Kids these days are not as blur as previous gens.


The exception would be if the child had previously instructed you not to reveal till after psle.

And for context, I did. Both good and bad news. But I also did emphasise regardless of outcome, psle is still top priority.

Received CO from DHS Volleyball through snail mail today.

yes.
the kid was closely involved in identifying target schools to preparing needed applications & collaterals, and monitoring outcome.
did it affect psle concentration = yes, a bit.

but every child is different, and every child is precious.

I received via snail mail from DHS , on waitlist . 😅
