OH yes.. Swimming is not a CCA but it is compulsory for P4/P5. Anyway, the SMC is trying to get MOE approval to build a swimming pool in HWS. Hope we can get the approval soon.

If the child knows how to swim, can he/she be exempted?

All returned to teacher.

For any interested parent, each year SCO (SG Chinese Orchestra) has a couple of performances that are for kids (similiar to Baby Proms by SSO). We went last year and it was really good. Tickets not as hot as SSO Baby Proms and very entertaining also. Also, I recall tickets were cheaper. Can surf their website for info.

my child juz joined the school in P2 and keen to take up Wushu for CCA.

Any parents can share if the training's gonna be tough?
Betw, which are the 'better' classes in P2 this year as I understand there were banding fm P1 to P2? Thanks!

Wushu is a highly discplined sport. The training is obviously tough but it is good for children to build up physically and mentally. Besides the sports build his composure. The Wushu training is tailored in Hong Wen as part of character education too. It is worth it.

The better classes are only only found in P5/P6. From P1-P4, student are streamed based on his learning abilities.

Yeah! Thanks much for the info. Do you know if it'll be during school time? The last performance we went was in the evening but I'm sure there are other timings.

16th May is a Monday. It is at 1000hrs. We are working with School to see how PSG/Sch can work on the date. But most likely we are going to attend the one on 14th May instead.. Saturday night 2000hrs.

If parents are keen, i am inviting parents to be part of Organizing Committee for this event so that to make this event a succesful one. :).
