Catholic High (Primary)

[JonC]

Hee hee, the book’s publisher name is Catholic High.


Only available from the boys’ teacher in class room when the boys pay, I mean must pay.

It say school copyright, no reproduce without school permission.

Actually maths no need to stick to particular book or books.


You need to grasp the concepts first, by studying one book or multiple books

Next apply the concept/concepts to the question until you see the question you know which concept/concepts to apply.

Some questions need to apply more than 1 concepts, some can apply different concepts to solve.

Once achieve above, you need to practice more to gain speed and accuracy (I mean pure calculation part).

Understand that Catholic High's Mathematics Head of Department has published a book on problem-solving. Any of you can share with me the exact title of this book the head of department publishes ?

Ah, actually in CHS, they just use their own materials that you buy in a file. But now that the school didn't achieve whatever national position for this year altho' chs was #2 position last yr, I wonder if the \"file\" still effective or not. *haha*

Anyone knows which student center is good near the CH? I am looking for a student ceter for my son. I can only go to pick him up after 6:30 pm.

2centsworthy:

\"F\" class is BEST... \"E\" is 2nd best... after that it is all average classes .. so no worst class. Hope that helps. Hope they are not changing that next year.

Is this the same for P3. I will be transferring my boy to CH, next year. Anyone also transferring their boy next year?

Hi NicHei,

How did you get your boy a transfer into CHS? I tried to do a transfer for my boy for P2 next year. Put him on waiting list and sent CHS all the results and certificates, but reply was \"no vacancy\".

So high meh? Historically, it has been around 225. There will only be a minimum COP set for the cohort of 2010 onwards.

By the way, if I'm not mistaken, in p5/p6, I understand that 10+ boys who are taking Foundation level subjects have been in the \"A\" class.
