Hi,

I do not really follow all these but can just udpate you some information that I know.

There are a total 4 exam, CA1, SA1 in mid year and CA2 & SA2 in end of the year.

I ever signed on some mini test papers but think is not a alot.

Remember only see less than 5 CL spelling test throughout the year.

Hello,
Thank you for answering the above of my 2 postings.

I'm in a dilemma. My DD is accepted by Crescent Girls' thr' appeal which we are happy. Didn't expect to be successful as we know there are plenty, plenty of appeal cases.
But distance to the school is far from my home.
Drive abt 30 mins. Train abt 1 hr plus.
We will send DD to sch nevertheless but still worried abt rest, sufficient sleep etc...

Reason why we didn't choose Crescent initially was due to distance.
Now that appeal is thr', we have to reply school by Monday.
Can anyone pls advise me whether to accept this precious offer by the sch???
Need some advice abt this school.
Worth it to travel all the way there??? Also how's the Morning TRAFFIC near school during sch's hours???
Thank you.

I see.
Ques asked:
-why Crescent Girls'?
-how u come to know abt this school?
-what u kn abt this sch generally?
-if no Tablet PC, u still want this sch?
-(for us , DD was asked abt the long distance to this sch)
I'm sure different ques targeted at different students.

From what I know, the school will start calling students for interview with aggregate score above it's COP 244 first and follow down the line. If it has no more vacancy, it may not call students with score close to 244. We didn't choose Crescent initially due to its far distance.

My DD also like Crescent's environment and esp TABLET PC.
We also have a good feeling abt this school- well behaved girls...
But NUMBER 1 worry is the travelling distance for DD and peak hrs near school.
Shd these good points abt the school outweigh the long distance?

Don't know how...
Headache now as have to reply school by Monday.
Any feedback is appreciated by parents.

Thank you.

Thank you.[/quote]Hi, is difficult to answer your question on this travelling matter as DD only requires to take one station to reach Redhill MRT.

However, heard from DD that she has classmates taking MRT from Pasir Ris, Yishun and Sembanwang etc
