My boy in C4 also has not recd the list.

What about wushu?

suprising that the school does not have CCA such as soccer and international chess as these are popular sports, and for chess it is low maintenance.

Considering that ds is unlikely to carry a saber in adulthood, I thought that taekwondo maybe a more applicable life skill.

Anyway ds enjoyed himself thoroughly today in T&F. Let's see how long can he sustain his interest. Or maybe he really has dw's running genes.

Talking about moxie, my ds doesnt have any even though I half expected him to have, based on the info being shared here. Seems like this year they took out moxie for P2?

I saw some of the resident children learning taekwondo in the evening at the clubhse. Maybe check with the MCST.

Yup, ds joined PH at the most appropriate timing. Last yr, instead of struggling with preparation for any exam, ds spent a few months just learning to write legibly, especially for hanzi and reading loads of storybooks. All these won't be possible if there're exams.

Didn't know they have taekwondo lessons here. Thanks for the heads-up. Will recce for one once ds's done with the Swimsafe programme - 3 certs obtained, so just 3 more to go.

U Can Approach Dear Old Roger who Teaches Taekwando in Toh Yi Estates

He's One Passionate Taekwando Instructor, And If I'm Not Mistaken, the Only Dan 7 in Spore (at Least During my Kids' time .... Errrrrrrrrr .... More than 5 years Ago? ). Hundreds, if Not Thousands, of Toh Yi Kids has Been Trained by Him, Including ALL my 3 kids. :lol:

I Always Admire His Patience with the Kids, And His Passion for the Sport.
Can U think of Any Grand-Dad Who's in his Seventies and Still is So Flexible that He can Still Do a Split?

And Fees is Cheap-Cheap Too ....
We Used to Pay $24 per Term for Sat Nite Lessons.

It's totally hard to believe P1/2 kids are so relaxed :yikes: ...my son had 黙写 when he was in P2 as well as CA/SA...I still kept all his exam papers.
