My DS is also keen on the Shanghai program since he’s very interested in Science and Technology, I’m a bit worried but also thought it’s a rare opportunity…anybody’s DS or DD signing up?

Huh? my dd never show me about Shanghai program, only some papers, like 'Starquest A Star Science Labs', '小四华文创意思维写作，理解与口试课' enrichment class.

DS came back with the letter and form yesterday…maybe you can check with dd again today. Due date is 13th January, then need to go for interview.

Like to get feedback on the enrichment class "Speak with Oomph!".


Did anyone send his/her child to one of these before? Is it any good?

My dd is interested in the Shanghai program but I do not intend to let her go. There should still be opportunities when she is in secondary school.

The AMEC (Advanced Maths Enrichment Club) will be conducted by Maths Aha! The fee is $180 for 12 2 hours lessons. I thought it should be free since it is considered CCA. :evil: Is it good?

Following up on the Shanghai immersion programme.


I think the P4 students got their forms today and need to submit them in by 13 Jan 2012. 40 will be selected to go after an interview. This will include a home-stay as well.

My current thoughts ...

(a) P4 seems a little too young for them to venture out especially on a home-stay. Not sure if the home-stay will be a 1 NYPS student to 1 family. If so, my DS will freak out for sure.

(b) March temperature in Shanghai will be between 5-13 degrees? Too cold?

(c) Its a technology immersion programme - just what is covered, I am not too sure

Can any of the experienced mummies and daddies please advise and provide your own or your DS DD experiences?

Many thanks!

Anyone from last year's batch ... care to comment?

Why don't you try it out and share your feedback here?

We signed up for robotics, as requested by DD. Hopes she likes it. :xedfingers:
