Oh I see. I'm mistaken. Thanks for the clarification.
i did not make myself clear. The MO training only starts in P5. but as i understand, only those who are in M1 class in P4 the previous year are selected. -

My boy did not attend last year TTLT Maths. I did not hear any sch organised MO P5 from him. He has opted out of this year TTLT EL & MA too. I hv also pulled him out of Maths Hub this year.Jennifer:
not so serious lah
.
So finally the math olympiad training is here. And it seems to be offered to all who were in TTLT math in P4? Will your son be going for the school MO training since you said he goes for the math hub one? Mine will opt out the school MO training since it will become like repetition... -
Fqw, yup, those 2 boys like to share gossip, food, cca n aspirations. I m just glad he is getting some exercise
let's see how enthuse they will remain in a few mths time!
Does anyone know when does the swimming lessons start? -

So the swimming lessons are starting earlier now ? My son's modular CCA (swimming) started in P3 or P4. The good thing is, it was conducted during curriculum time. -

Looking through the timetable of the TTLT Maths. They offered the MO lessons in Term1 and 2. But don't know how related to the MO competitions. I still registered my son for this year's TTLT Maths. Including The Sup class, CCA, he need to stay 4 out of 5 afternoons in the school.

Surprisingly last year's school magazine did not mention the pupils who took part in MO. Prior to that, they had a list of the pupils with the award achievements. it cannot be that nobody won an award last year?

Very surprised to hear that all M1 pupils are offered the MO training, not like in the past only a selected few.
The reason why we opt out of this year TTLT programmes was the consideration that my boy would be spending 4 weekdays in sch. Add on his Wed piano class, it would be 5 afternoons.
Abt the MO training, I would advise not to rely too much on the sch provided training IF a more prestigious award is desired. -

During my elder boy's P5, there were 3 Maths competition in P5- Raffles Institution partnered by HeyMath!, NUSHigh partnered by MOE & S'pore Mathematical Society and ACS(I) partnered with HotHouse & Casio. Then in P6, one organised by Hwa Chong Institution (High School) Mathematical Learning & Research Centre. -

Not sure abt SMO but Ds and a few who took part in SASMO last May was mentioned in the newsletter in July last yr when theu send home a whole list of whatever achievements over those past months... -
Just for your interest…
Btw, I had checked with Mathhub…Those that goes thru MO trainings with them shd be qualified to take part in American Math Competitions too under the AMC 8 catergory…according to the guy I spoke to, he did mentioned that AMC is infact easier than SMO…
