Did you guys sign up any ECA for your boys?

Hi Vicki,

It's known as Core Curriculum Activities (CCA) now. No more EXTRA but CORE.

I opted for Badminton follow by Wushu and Table Tennis. But I understand there is a selection for Badminton. So it is not for everyone I think. Have you registered your boy?

Haha - guess im still stuck in 'our' time!!

Yup - Signed my boy up for Wushu - cos its on a non-weekend day! Too many things going on on a typical Sat liao - so too headache to make changes + i told my boy 'he can challenege his dad once he attain the highest level' :evil:

Only thing im wondering now is - can they do lunch at the canteen or do i have to pack lunch..... *waiting for confirmation of the CCA before i ask the teacher!*

any regrets gg maris as opp to eg cath hi?

For CCAs, the boys buy their own lunch in the canteen or parents may pack for them but I rather give my son $2/ & let him buy. He enjoys the thrill of buying food in the canteen & eats with his friends .

For me nope, cos i think the school is quite well-balanced!

Mummies out there, can I chk if parents are allowed to go into the school during days when the boys hve CCA. My boy just got his CCA. Not sure if he knows how to but food, get ready for the CCA etc for the first session? Also, I need to get the grandparents to go to school to pick him up after CCA (he takes school bus daily so this is something new). Can the grandparents go into the school n seat by the bench or must they wait outside the school gate?

Hi vicki,


I know that grandparents can go into school to wait by the bench for CCA to end.

As to whether can go into canteen help hom get ready for CCA and buy lunch, I’ve never tried that. Maybe you can seek permission from the general office and get a visitor pass.

Hope it helps

Hi I intend to enrol my son to Marisa Stella under Phase 2C. Saw the registration has exceeded the vacancy. So there is balloting for Phase 2B. Praying hard to be successful in the coming enrolment

Are u within 1km? Generally, no balloting is required for those below <1km for 2C.

Good luck. Hope u get in.
