[quote=\"Paddy Field\"]I did not see any information about the Galileo program - the note was for Euler right? As of now, still no circular on Galileo.

I tot it mention both Euler and Galileo programme?... Shall check again when ds come back ..

It did mention both Euler and Galileo on the first page. But the second page is an annex regarding Euler. There was no additional information about Galileo.

Pls correct me if I m wrong.[/quote]I think so .. Blur mummy here :roll:

Ds just called me ,he said tt he has asked the teacher regarding abt the Galileo form and she replied tt she will give them the form some other day .

Euler is not an Math Olympiad class


participants in Math Olympiad (eg SMO) is more than the Euler cohort size

all Math Club members take part in math olympiad competition

and all Euler members join math club

Euler is a pullout class for math but Euler members take the same EOY exams as the rest of the cohort for benchmarking purpose

Galileo is not a pull out class but is an enrichment class on top of regular science class

Hi vk2010,
So for those nOt in Euler and galileo prog... Would they be less advantage or is it perfectly ok? :roll:

Just learned that ds class has 6 mainstreamers - the rest GEPers.


Ds said he’s asked to go for bridging class tmr - together with 5 others who are also mainstreamers. Wonder what they do there.

I think all mainstreamers have to attend... If I am not wrong ...

Thanks for e detailed info, vsk2010. So e boys have to stay back if they r in e Galileo program?

basically to find out whether they need help to be at the same pace with the GEP background kids in the same class

they will be told what they have not done yet as a non-GEP students and if they need help, help is available from the teachers

there will be periodic meet up and feed back until the boys are confirmed no problem adapting to the GEP pace
