My son came back on the first day and said he wasnt going back! He said the hours were just too long. BUT I think the fun camp days have started. He enjoyed yesterday's activities, and has stopped complaining about the long hours. Also more friends now

I like what Dr Ong said:\"Parents, we will keep your boys so occupied that they will have no more energies left for other mischiefs!\"
Glad for that indeed!!
As for the sport CCA, i think they have to be selected for it before they can put it as one of their choices. Just like the trials conducted at the other sec schools. Its good that they get to try their hands at all the sports that they are interested in. -
Mandarin:
So this week being the first week they will start next week as week B right ?wormy:
Time table is split into week a and week b, not told if they represent odd and even week respectively
They represent the odd and even weeks within the school term. 10 weeks in each term, so you always start with week A. -

Hi South African, same here for my boy. Now in bed with a fever and cough. In the morning he wanted to go to school but he looked terrible and was shivering all over. Hope they get better soon !Hi morning, my son came back from 2 days of camp and is sick today so has to skip school. Must be the long hrs and hot sun. Hope he is well enough. Are all the sports represented in sports bazaar? What if my ds wants to join swimming or badminton?
When do the boys start cca after term 1?

Alamak. Hope he feels better now and gets well soon. My son was also grumbling about the long hours. I told him to bear in mind that this is the transition period from Primary to Secondary school and once he gets used to it, it will be better.

Thanks, clayman. I am not sure what hit him but he is usually very tough. He threw up mid morning and, after his panadols, is now just flat on the sofa looking very limp. :? -
Any parents with kids in 1.14? :?:

Hope those boys who are not feeling well will recover very soon so that they can go back to join in the orientation fun. Now I realise DS is not the only one complaining about tiredness. At first, I thot he was just being too soft as he is not the sporty type and dislikes physical activities and being under the sun. In fact, received a call from him at 1130am this morning that he had stomach pain and asked if he could go home. He explained they had some vigorous physical activities this morning and the pain started after that. My first reaction was he was trying to find an excuse to avoid further physical activities later today. After some investigation (talked to the PSL, School Nurse on the phone), I decided to let him rest in the sick bay for an hour or so before deciding whether I need to go and bring him home (the Sch Nurse explained they would not allow him to leave on his own in case he faints). He sms at about 1245pm to say that he was feeling better and would return to the activities. Am pretty proud of him for perservering. Yes, we need to let the boys grow and mature by letting go.......Counting on the sch to work with with parents to develop our boys into fine young gentlemen. Cheers.

Hmmm how come my DS still so energetic every night, creating so much noise with DS2 ?
He is definitely not a sporty type but didn't appear tired at all over past few days. -

Haha. May want to check what he ate in school. May have had a sugar overload!. :evil:
