They have BB

Yah, BB is a good alternative. The reason I prefer scouts slightly more is that a) it's obvious from what's being presented during the orientation that christian education is already very well covered daily in PH & b) I'm more familiar with scouts' activities such as the annual scouts day, overnight trekking, campfire.

Can just imagine ds looking smart in a scout uniform :love: .

Activities similar to those you mentioned are available in BB too. My son just had a BB overnight camp yesterday. They even went for a 5.2 km night walk from school to clementi last night.

In BB, they also learn tying knots, pitching tent, field cooking, first aid bandaging, drills etc.

Besides imho, the BB uniform is smarter than scout uniform.

Oh, you mean BB also has interesting activities such as campfire & night walk too? Thanks for the heads up. Looks like that will be one I'll persuade ds to join.

The other one I quite like is competitive table tennis. In competitions, we'll taste both victories & defeats. These are good life lessons for ds to learn to cope with at a young age. Too bad the cca timing (think it's wed morning) is not suitable for us, unless we employ a maid. Heard from my colleague that nowadays table tennis is serious business in pri sch. His kid wanted to join at P2 but was rejected as being too late, cos those cca players started their training at P1 :faint:.

Yeah Competitive Table Tennis is \"VERY SERIOUS\" BIZ in PH ....

A Couple Years Ago, PH Imported 6 \"VERY COMPETITIVE\" Players from China (Serious, They FOLLOW SPore Sports STYLE To the DOT) and PH Coach Has Promised to Catapult PH as No 1, or No 2 in the Inter-school Championship (Heard Another School Did the Same, So Cannot B Sure of DEFINITE 1st ....)
Did Not Follow the Sports Results, Though, So Don't Know whether They Kept the Promise OR NOT ....
Note : \"VERY COMPETITIVE\" = Means WIN MEDALS in Their Own Country - la :lol: :lol:

But Know for a Fact that ONE of the Imported Player Stop Playing After a Year (Coz Player in My Gal's Class), and TOP the Level in the Studies Instead ....

Would like some advice as I wish to wrap some of the textbooks and label them. Thanks in advance.

Unofficially, from the Conversation I Had with PH Teacher on Fri, Gonna B in Numbers ....
Probably something like Loyalty 5/1, 5/2, ....
But Of Course Better to Wait for Almighty's Letter in Mid-Dec ....
Probably Best to \"SCHEDULE\" the Wrapping / Labeling of Books Till Then ....
No Hurry - la ....
:lol: :lol:

Oh yes, better delay the wrapping.. my DS told me that during orientation, the form teacher told them that their class name is Loyalty 1 and in P2, will be loyalty 2?!?!? just when we were trying to explain the name change to him, the FT just added to his confusion.. and all the forms, name tags etc are also filled in with 'Loyalty 1'.. tsk tsk..

while I was not very impressed with the P (not the charismatic/approachable type, couldn't even remember the class names.. ), have to say the orientation was quite well-run. not chaotic at all..
