moonee:
Congrats! Congrats! moonee and dd. You received the email notification on the 2nd round day activity for NJ already? A lot of friends and their dc waiting long-neck for the email.Yup, she did apply but I think its easier to get in tru sec 1 posting, I just hate to see her dissapointed cos there r limited vacancies for DSA.
Well, Im glad she did well for the first round. -
GLORYmum:
They are not the latest. The one I'm waiting for is supposed to conduct interviews next week & has yet to give notification. Told me that we'll know by end of this week. :nailbite:Sunflower 2000:
The interview will be next Monday.
All the best !
RGS is quite late to conduct interview on PSLE oral week.
I guess many other schools would have completed their interview rounds by this week ?
Their right to disregard PSLE orals... Makes me :gloomy: -
moonee:
Don't worry, I am sure she will do well. As for possible disappointment, yah we have to gear ourselves for that possibility but I think our kids are more resilient than what we think.

'Dd just came out from the activity . Said they were told to do a river crossing activity with all of them having their legs tied together . Then every one of them were not allowed to use either their hands, mouths etc to try to get across in 40 mins . There were 3 teachers observing and watching . She had fun and was full if enthusiasm when she came out . Waiting for the interview at 12.30 now . Glad her s was early and not too late !'

'DS's experience in NJC yesterday :
1) The day activity comprised of 2 games which were pretty challenging and fun too. He came out pretty happy
2) Interview scheduled at 130pm but he waited for 50 mins before called in to the panel of 3 interviewers. First remark by one of the interviewer : you looked cheerful and not at all nervous. This sounded good and put DS at ease though I personally think he really was just being himself and not at all nervous at all.
Questions started such as what was his favourite subject, what books he liked to read (DS concluded this question was a result of his personal statement in the very first stage of DSA application so it depends on what you have written about yourself) and why does he think he should be given a place ?
The process lasted for 20mins with the senior escorting him out of the room all the way to the lobby.
Oh most importantly, DS felt okie after the whole process which I thought and hope it all turns out well too.' -
