Yes, passed both languages.


He has also attended boarding school for Term 2 - but I’m puzzled as to how this is relevant?

Yes, but we have done our own computation based on the previous 3 terms results (30% weightage) and final year results (informed verbally by teachers and carrying 70% weightage)...agah agah..My husband also quite impressed with my computation considering I was an arts student... :xedfingers:

My DS will be joining the HCI family next year and can someone help me with the following.


1) Can someone share the booklist for 2011 Y1 booklist (iSpark)?
2) May I know is there any pre-requiste to join the Weiqi/Math Club, are they core or merit CCA?
3) Generally how many sets of uniform and PE attite are needed for Y1?
4) Which CCA is the most difficult to get in?
5) Is swimming part of the PE lessons?

Thank you in advance.

Booklist will be given out during the orientation session ...a day will also be allocated for iSpark students to make the purchase. I do not think anyone will have the book list, but you can definitely try the bookshop if you really want to purchase them so way in advance.

For CCA, unless the student enter HCI under CCA, otherwise they are supposed to go thru a CCA orientation before putting in their choices. Thus there is no compulsory CCA from what I understand.

Swimming is part of PE lesson and will be schedule according to class and consortium.

CCA in HCI is not divided into core or merit

Oops! Typo error. Actually am asking for 2010 Y1 iSpark booklist, not the 2011.

Oh, like that. Then how many CCA is required? :?

I read from the earlier posts, look like HCI also has CCA orientation and students are to rank the CCA base on their preference (provided the CCA choose the student too).

Is it very siong to take 1 UG/Sport + 1 club + 3rd Lang (MSP)?

every secondary school has cca orientation, at the end of which you sign up - some use paper and pen, some use computer forms for your ranking of choices

some cca will grab you first if you have been \"established\" in the cca in ori school, and so on

sports + club + 3rd lang should be alright if they have the ability to do their homework quickly on their own
