The school calendar says its CNY celebrations tomorrow. Is there early dismissal and do they need to wear the corporate-T?

From what my son told me, they finish later than usual - at 2.40 :yikes: coz the white space time is being used for the celebrations. He did not mention anything about having to wear the corporate T but I will check with him later.

[quote=\"ngbrdad\"]Malay special programme is in house and no need to go to Moelc right ?

Can a student who did not indicate any preference for 3rd language in S1 form take it up now ?

Yes, and yes. The relevant info and application form can be found http://www.acs.sch.edu.sg/acs_indep/pages/Regional_Studies_Programme. Note that the closing date for applications is this Friday 20 Jan 2012.

Can a student in the express stream apply for the RSP?[/quote]Hi unclebao,

If you are referring to the Regional Studies Programme, I think it is only open to Year 1 IP students according to the school website.

Students are encouraged to wear their ethnic costumes school tomorrow. Corporate-T is usually worn on the last Friday of every month.

For tomorrow, lesson will carry on as usual until 11.45am. The celebration will start at 12 noon and should end by 1 pm. However, CCA in the afternoon (if any) will continue as usual.

Thanks bigfoot. I just wonder where my DS gets his info from!! :scratchhead:

You are welcome. It's not his fault. The orginal plan for the CNY celebration was from 1pm - 2pm. So, he was not wrong in saying that the whitespace was used for the celebration. The decision to change the time to 12pm was only sent out yesterday. He should have been informed by his CT today.

Does anyone happen to know who is in charge of the administration of the Year 1 CCAs?


Thanks.

Thanks.

Overall in charge of CCAs would be Mr Chan Chee Wei. However, the CCAs are normally further divided into types of sports and games, uniformed groups, and other activities.

Hi all,

I am new here but had read through all threads in this subject. My son just started his Y1 with ACS (I) express stream, not taking HCL. Can I summarize a few possibilities for him:

1) If his main 6-subject results are good enough (>80% & pass the HAST), he will be upgraded to the IP/IB track in Y3. Then it is not necessary to take higher Chinese.
2) If his results so-so, he has to take O-level exam. If he still wants to enter the IB track at Y5, will passing HCL grant 2 bonus point for IB?
3) If his O-level not good enough to enter IB, the only bonus point he will have is to enter ACJC. But if he takes HCL, he will have extra 2 bonus point to enter a good JC?
4) so question is: how to convince the school to allow him to take HCL from Y2? What kind of results are needed?

Thank you & wish everybody a happy Dragon Year ahead!
