Hi everyone, today when going to school, I was filled with a sense of pride and a had a stomach of nerves. But after going into the school, receiving a warm rafflesian welcome with cheers and games, i was much relieved! The school was nice, although some talks were long and my legs were numb, I enjoyed the atmosphere. The PSLs for my class were really friendly and helpful, and I felt blended in. We learnt the school song and cheers-- really wonderful but really, I enjoyed today.


However, I have some queries,
- CCA orientation is about...?
- the orientation booklet states that we are supposed to wear culottes and pe tshirt on badge initation but aren't we supposed to wear full school uniform?

TIA,
Potato

In CCA orientation there will be booths set up by respective CCAs (with lots of effort and love put in haha) and you can find out more information of each respective CCA such as their training days, duration, what they do, what qualities they are looking for and such! You can also try out some of the CCA activities, and get lots of stickers!

Thanks for the reply I'm sure I'll feel the love, n definitely the effort. Loved the cheers!

What are parents supposed to do at the CCA orientation today?

Is there any official briefing today?

You can visit the booths and performances set up by the various CCAs to see what's on offer, what the CCAs do, the skill sets required, audition/trials dates, training hours, overseas trips etc. You can also participate in some of the activities. My dd's year they opened up the shooting range which was very popular among the girls who wanted to see whether they were good shots. Not sure if this is still done.

Have you been briefed on CCA already? If not, there'll likely be a short briefing for parents.

Is it alright that I do not attend the CCA orientation? My dd told me that she didn't need me to attend it.

Thanks.

Hmm..I really can't recall if there was any CCA briefing on reporting day; probably not.
I'm still undecided on whether to attend today...
