Hi justmewayne,


May I know if we take up the 3rd language, r we still allow to take another elective? any selection test/interview etc for AEP,RSP,Comp elective? TIA!

As the lessons for Electives are conducted on Tues/Thurs afternoons, your son can only select one elective due to scheduling conflicts and workload intensity.

This means that if your son wants to take an elective, he can choose only 1 subject out of the following:

French/German/Japanese/Malay Special Programme (MSP)/Chinese Special Programme (CSP)/Music Elective Programme (MEP)/Art Elective Programme (AEP)

There are no pre-requisites for AEP, but there will be a selection test that will gauge applicant's ability in drawing and creativity.

You will notice that Regional Studies Programme (RSP) and Computer Elective Programme (CEP) is not part of the list above. RSP is only offered to students taking MSP at the end of Year 1, and it is structured like an add-on programme, while CEP is only offered in Year 3 and 4.

Math Club and Chess Club are both considered Merit CCAs and trainings are conducted on Fridays from 1.30pm to 3.30pm. As such they cannot be taken together due to clashing schedules.

Tks for your prompt reply!

So, if we take up MSP, then we just apply for RSP at the end of yr 1 without selection tests/intv? if we wanna take up CEP in yr 3/4, we have to drop RSP?

Gotta double confirmed with u as we r still blur like sotong

oki then...thanks alot justmewayne [/quote]No problem. I would suggest that you don't worry so much about Merit CCAs yet as there will be a Merit CCA Trail in late January next year to let your son know about the various Merit CCAs on offer.

On Dec 22 when the Sec 1s report to RI, must they wear their Pri school uniform or RI uniform? I haven’t bought the uniform for DS yet. Worried that he might grow fat during this period so I am delaying buying it.
