To firefly and phankao,


My ds2 also cannot dsa for anything to anywhere! So... Stuck! Most likely, mine is also playing ball in school!

My backup plan if ds didn't make the COP was this Chinese school in Yishun (you can guess which lah) ... that one no need DSA. Bc have normal stream. Mr Lee's son also went to this school. Also considered another nearby neighbourhood school, which also has normal stream. I guess you could prepare by looking out for such not-too-bad schools?

[meiah]

Me very ks one. Already got 2 lists! 1 for express and 1 for normal! Can fill in option form already. But ya, the yishun one also in my list.

Hi Meiah,

Is your DS1 in CHS Sec? Wow, how nice if Sec Schs also have Phase 2A for siblings hor..

Wonder why the CHS boys LOVE to play football sooo much.. I got a shock when I first went to CHS 3 years ago (when my DS1 joined CHS at P4) and saw the number of boys (and balls!) at the Parade Square during recess time :shock: :yikes: .. Ironically, CHS does not have Soccer CCA, or else, my DS2 can join (he is rather good at it) and maybe can DSA via Soccer, haha...

Haha. If my ds2 goes there, I think he has no time for a gf. Looking at the lists of things he has to remember to not get demerit points, I think his hands would be full already! :evil:

Talking about 'balls'.. Once I was walking along the corridor on the 4th floor, and a ball came flying into my path! Luckily i was quite agile and managed to 'siam' just in time.. When i looked down, I saw many boys looking up my direction.. Then i realized it was a small boy (maybe P2/P3) who has kicked the ball up from the parade square (he ran all the way up to the 4th floor to collect the ball).. Wow, a pin-size boy but super powerful.. :yikes:

Mr Lee has to be a BIG football fan to tolerate all these noise and 'flying balls' around the school campus.. Think most boys (& parents) have also mastered the 'Art of Ducking' for survival..

[meiah]

Think it has to do with the lack of a sch field near the pri campus, so the boys play in the courtyard.

Big football fan? I have no idea, but after expending so much energy chasing after balls and screaming their lungs out, most boys would be quite subdued in class after recess!!! So between recess madness and class chaos, I think I'll opt for soccer during recess.
Maybe it's a tactic! When the boys arrive in the morning, they are half-awake, so must think of a way to keep them half-awake too after recess!!!
