Oh in the previous pages i saw posts saying about this PresentPerfect Magazine which RV uses for sec 1-4 and Broader Perspectives for Yr 5 and 6. I know Broader Perspectives is published by school of thoughts but not sure about presentperfect magazine which I am interested in subscribing to. :?

Hi daisyt,

Tks for the infor. Die lah, looks like CCas will take up a lot of time no matter what u join.... Now I am not sure Wat Ds should join such that he can balance both studies and cca......

Since all students spend almost the same amt of time on cca, and they can manage, I'm sure your ds can handle too.
Personally, I prefer dd to take up sports, if she is chosen. Very good for her to destress, keep fit, burn calories. For cca that need to use a lot of brain power, do a lot of thinking, then they'll be so so drained. Imagine the whole day in class , after sch, continue to rack the head, wah, so tiring! :shock:

Hi Hellokiasu,

Maybe the sch will subscribe for them since they're using? So we can just wait for their trs to get it done?

Hi sall, can ask u something? Is it true that Rv students have to take 2 CCas? Can they choose which CCA they want to join?

[sall]

Hi Hellokiasu, yes, students got to take 1 core cca and also another cca. Except for those in sports sch team. Your child is in what class next year?

Hi Optopusmum

Don't have to worry. Like sall says, all other students can cope so there is no reason why your son can't.
In fact dd is looking forward to CCA days. She's enjoying it.
