Thank you Mum42 for the info. Wow, some boys are in demand. Hope all our DS will get into the CCA of their choice.

eclair u r most welcome. DS finished the selection meeting at 8.30pm said managed to get most of d sec one boys on his list , really an eye opening event :salute: but dead tiring event, cause it 4 consortium battling for it so started right after sch end.
Hope all sec one boys will get into d CCA they wanted.[/quote]
Good morning Mum42 - how do they normally inform the Sec 1s of the outcome? Is it via EMB? Will some boys be offered 2 or more CCA and they decide which one they want ? Oh, your DS is involved in the selection meeting? It is not just the teachers only ? Means those holding senior positions are involved as well? I am very curious (kaypoh), if you don't mind, which CCA is your DS in (it is OK if you can't reveal) ? Thanks a lot.[/quote]

Hi eclair, yes my DS was involved in yesterday selection, don think most of d coach n teachers r there as the selection list was given out to d excos but important head r there to see to d process. No, d boy will only be posted to one CCA . Now a day d CCA will decide which boy they want n not the other way round. V seldom d boy is offer 2 main CCA but d boy still can only take one cause HCI boys have a lot of other commitment to fulfill .

Yes , those boys in d exco were involved. HCI has trained all d boys to be v independent n d boys who hold exco position were given a lot of opportunity to prove themselves to perform important task eg. like this selection. My DS is in shooting club.

mum42, could you share with us how the CCA allocation works ? Considering there are 400 over students, do the exco members go student by student to decide which CCA wants to take in each one ?

Hi Jeannie12 , DS only told me briefly when I picked him last nite that all CCA excos already have a list of boys they wanted , if d boy is only short listed by one CCA then he will automatically post to that CCA but if d boy is short listed by two or more CCA then see which excos is faster n list out why d boy is more suitable in that CCA. Yes, they go by one consortium at a time that why so time consuming . When he reach home , he went straight to bed after bathing without touching any homework :sick:

:thankyou: mum42

Thank you Mum42 for the reply. I am sure yr DS has shown a lot of leadership ability & I am sure you are very proud of him. We juniors have a lot to learn from you and will also need more advice from you in future (hope you don't mind). Thanks in advance. Heehee ......

For parents/DS who are going to appeal for their CCA :nunchuk:


You may have already seen this (EMB).. regarding appeal for CCA.

To appeal for another CCA:
- Go to SALT Centre, PE Office, and collect an Appeal Form
- Deadline for submission of appeal form is 24 Feb (Friday)
- Outcome of appeal will be by week 9.

Meanwhile, DS(es) will still have to report to their allocated CCA till the appeal outcome is out.

Hi mum.com, do you know if the probability of an appeal getting through is high ?
